MSA sprints are the cheapest and closer, so approx £75 entry fee and half a tank of fuel to get there and back for North Weald and Debden. Snetterton, Blyton and Hethel are £120 entry and an overnight B&B and at least a tank if not more of fuel. TOTB is more expensive because it is so far away and 2 nights B+B.
So entry, fuel and travel was approx £1800 for 10 events. Although I seem to have 3 sets of worn tyres at present and didn't buy any this year, it averages out to one set of tyres a year, so another £600. Then if you don't have it already the startup costs getting you and the car ready for MSA competition - namely timing strut, fire extinguisher, MSA approved overalls, helmet and gloves - the last 3 coming in at least to £500. Then you have to join a club at £24 a year for B19, then another £10 - £20 to enter the championship.
10 events is a lot for me - I doubt I will do that many next season
