Default Club race and membership fee's...

Hi All,

I'm interested to know what the various clubs charge for their racing and club membership.

We've inherited a club (Mendip RC Raceway), that in the years prior to us taking over charged more and more each year due to the amount of rent being covered with declining numbers (in onroad IC classes). Things have taken an upward turn in numbers since we introduced the offroad side, so I'm interested to know what everyone is paying nationally...to see how we compare.

So...would like to know the following:

1) Cost of race fee's
2) Cost of club membership
3) Do you charge for 2nd/extra classes of racing?
4) What facilities your club has to warrant their fee's.

Clearly every club has different facilities, circumstances and costs to cover, so we expect this to vary a fair amount...

Thanks for your help in advance

I'll start it off...

1) £7 members, £10 non members per day
2) £33 per year
3) Not currently
4) Good regional standard 1/10th offroad track, national standard 1/5th, 1/8th and 1/10th scale onroad track, covered pits, cafe.

Note...purely looking for info, hopefully not stirring any big debates!!! Each club has their reasons, and that is cool
