I was the one that mentioned it and non profit does not mean we can take a loss each month. Insurance is still a major cost, We also still have equipment costs, a mortgage on our property, property taxes, and grounds improvements. Just because we are a non profit we still depend on the income to survive. We have kept our costs down because club members do all the work but to eliminate the gate fee for the 600 or so racers each month would mean we would have to recoup over $4200 somewhere each month.cantrell24x said:What if holding races and owning a track was not a business?
Someone mentioned a non profit club owned track.
What if there were a group of like minded clubs that held races and formed a series? Each club member paid dues money and labor. Each club held a set number of races and practice days. Clubs could swap events every so often so that members got to race on their own track.
I think insurance was listed as one of the major costs involved with holding races and owning a track.
In many states this would be a non issue if the costs were covered by club members. I think most states have recreational land use statutes that prevent lawsuits if the land owner(s) are not charging for access to the track.
If two or more tracks adopted this method the work and money that club members spend on their track would be offset by free access to the other clubs tracks.
I am sure there are issues I haven't thought about or do not understand but I think if people were motivated it might work

Give me a call when you are ready! And I have the perfect person to guard the gate.
