Motors seems to be lasting many many races, fuel is hard to tell since we have 4 cars dipping from the same gallon but they are pitting at the 7 min mark or later so its not much compared to my 4wd car. Front bumpers seem to get replaced often enough to make the conversation. Either way its peanuts compared to my Capricorn 4wd car. I would guess between 40 and 30 bucks a weekend would be a workable budget for parts. No one in Toledo should be buying rear tires.
i agree with the rear tires rick,ted,terry wear them down just right then toss'em at me. we use the 3 r's_ reduce ,reuse, recycle !!!. except when rick grenades the wheels
