OK.
So we have a total of four guys in the car who will take turns and do a driver swap
1/4th of the way down the 1/2 mile at $130 each. That comes to $520 for the first run.
If we can squeeze out a second run, that drops the cost per run down to $260 per run.
If the car will last through a mind-blowing third run, that drops the cost per run to $173 per run.....
and if by some miracle should my car last for 520 runs it gets down to $1.00 per run.
I think a buck per run is one heck of a deal!
To add some pizazz to the event, one of our guys has a set of coveralls that are bright orange
with a reflective yellow stripe down the leg......not your average run-of-the-mill driving suit.
We have obtained two sponsors.
On the back, also in reflective capitol letters, it says "Hillsborough County Sheriffs Department"
and a large logo from Target Department Stores.
I hope it will not be too embarassing to your other competitors
who are not so fortunate or lacking in resources.
