I still don't see a problem with $60 to $100 per class entry fee, considering the thousands of dollars most racers spend on their equipment
Point 1, we use the same gear that big events do, AMB is used in alot of motosport.

Point 2, I also don't see that given the amount of money clubs must make from large meets (at current entry fee) that they can't upgrade the 286 computer that they have run for the last 10 years with and buy proven race software.

Also I don't see why clubs should have to supply a transponder. If you want to race then supply your own personal tranny. I don't own one because I don't have to, but I would at the drop of a hat if I had to. This would also save club money and hopefully upgrade the timing system.
