Mate I'm from IMCC, just seen this & i'll have to agree. Lucky I live locally because you wouldn't drive from Sydney to pay that, 2 classes $30. My god.

I know there are associated cost of running a club, but geeeeez :eek

I'll give you an example.
If I race at IMCC twice a month as a member in 2 classes = $40 per month for say 10 months, have to have a holiday lol
That's $400 plus the yearly members fee which was $40, not sure if that's gone up also Total $440

I'm also a member of Moorebank NSWRCRCC, yearly club fees $352. I can race 2 classes any club day which is twice a month at no more cost.
That's a big difference in fees & facilities you're paying for.

Not trying to shoot anyone down here but I sure hope this was thought out well other wise your membership isn't going to grow.
I would think get more members first then maybe think about race fees.

The Junior fees are way out of line. This is who I would be trying to attract & your killing them with prices.
Junior club members only get a $5 discount overs adults that work, Junior Non club members.....well don't start me on that pricing.

I'm with you.....Good luck

The best approach would be to turn up, support the club & voice your opinions. While I agree race fees are too high, the more people the merrier.
