Slowly we get there.

Well, we are now in the blackhole of waiting. Car has shipped out, entry is in, we now wait on our trip to sunny California, and then the long slog of a drive through the Nevada desert to get to Colorado, which can actually be a nice drive.

So lets look over the figures for now;
Entry fee $1700 USD ($2,000 AUD)
Ocean Freight of Evo $1440 USD, plus $500 in fees (so $2000AUD rounded).
Two airline tickets $2400 return
Hotel; $1000

Sundry items will be fuel, food, and of course the beer. So, so far the bill is about $7400. Or about the same it cost to do our last event, which was our test event, which was Mt Buller in the state of Victoria here in Australia.

Then we have to get a truck, rent a trailer and drive to colorado which is only a days drive. then we have to ship the evo back to Australia, but we'll be loading the container up with stuff we need back here.

We'll be buying the truck, and if it meets import guidelines, we'll bring it back with us, or we'll re-sell it before leaving the US.

We're still debating and trying to decipher what tyres we'll use, and the Silverstone tarmac look good, but at worst, we'll just go with the Kumho and cut them for corner sipes for the gravel sections.
