Some of those figures seem a little frightening! For JTKM we spend per 2 day meet (sat prac / sun race) Entry �90 Fuel for kart �15 inc oil Chain Sprocket etc average about �5 Tyres we have 2 sets we use for practice 1 set for racing. Race tyres will last around 5 meetings and then become saturday practice tyres �25 Bodywork �10 Engine again we have a practice and a race engine so both would be rebuilt once a season. �50 Total �195 I haven't included petrol for car as would be doing something else if not karting. Now have a caravan so food costs etc same as would be at home. Not to bad really except when you add in the �3,500 I've just spent on chassis and engine plus buying the caravan plus running my Jeep cherokee around all week so I can tow the caravan it starts to come up to around �600 per meet.
Damn I wished I hadn't worked that one out.
