I have read that BNI is 75.00 to join for this year.

Does anyone know the entry fee for speed week this year 2015 ?

I looked on SCTA-BNI.ORG and here and I cannot find it (Maybe I need new glasses) grin

TIA
Clay

The entry fee will probably be the same as last year $525.  But there is no official news on the entry fee as yet.

After a disastrous 2014, methinks the fees may be rethought.  I'll post here when the Entry Blank is finalized.

Here, hopefully, is the 2015 BNI form -- also available on the SCTA website.

We may not have to go to Wendover to bend over?

Really? Why don't come up with a plan to cut down on overhead for the event.

  Not saying no meal tickets for workers, but what is the cost?

As I have no idea of the costs coming up with a plan to reduce cost is a bit difficult.  The only thought I've had so far is if you went from overhead to flathead you'd save.  Flatheads get a 33% discount.  : - )

. . . yabut -- that's only for motorcycle displacement.  Does that mean you'd rather be 30 miles closer to Salt Lake City?

30 miles closer is about a gallon and a half.  At today's gas prices its hardly worth the effort to move.

At today's prices -- or yesterday's?  Regular nolead went up a dime today here -- from $1.899 to $1.999/gallon.  I guess the low price thing is finite after all.

At least diesel hasn't gone back up.  A month ago I was paying about three and a half bucks/gallon.  I filled last Friday at $2.159 per gallon.  How welcome. . . :-D

Raise the spectator cost to more like what NHRA gets at a national event.

Raise it high enough, the hotels won't sell out and the room prices drop.

  Maybe not that much, but great idea :cheers:

  Anyone know how many spectator passes have been sold in a year?
