  • what is the avarage cost of dragweek?

    I am going to try to make it this year, but i need a rough estimate of how much money I need to save to pull it off.

      Our first two years were both $650 plus the entry fee.

      Last year was twice that much, mainly because of gas prices and we stayed in nice hotels the whole time.

      Like Jeff said you can just break it down and get pretty close.
      Entry fee-
      Hotels-
      Gas-
      Food-

                      cool! I was hoping it was going to be do-able. I don't have a chance in hell at being competitive but I really want to do this. I WILL be there as long as the Mrs. can keep a job this year.

                        I would say if you only go to win a jacket, you will leave broken hearted. Go to have fun and see the other crazy guys and cars, and it will be a blast!!!!!!!!
