I have adjusted them based on some reports. it appears the situation is getting grimmer by the minute. Read more

I'm sure it would be less. $40k is minimum for a top national effort in an attempt to make it up the racing ladder. I have recently been informed that some of my budget estimates were actually quite low compared to reality. Read more
