I'll be going to my first sx race next weekend (indy) and wanted to make sure I bring enough money. Theres only going to be 2 of us going, and with the hotel and tickets already paid for, I was thinking around $300 should be enough for food, maybe a couple shirts and other stuff.
How far off am I? lol

The Shop
I was expecting shirts to be $40-50, I think I paid about $40 for a shirt at Lorrettas last summer.
If your driving you will have to pay for parking of course, San Diego is up to $20 I believe, not sure what Indy charges.
Motel.......$120.00 per night....two nights
SX tickets got em free
Hooker & Blow.......$4000.00
People that pay money to eat inside and buy shirts are crazy.
Parking that I know of is 20 for Anaheim, 20 for San Diego, and 30 for the front lot at Dallas. And free in Vegas
They tax you on everything. Limit booze, don't eat inside and refill your water bottle @ the drinking fountain. I like Indy & wish I was going this year.

Man should always have at least a $100 cash in his wallet when he goes out of town for the day. That being said, the only thing I ever spent money on at an SX race were a Soda pop and a race SPECIFIC T-Shirt. It had to say Seattle on it. I didnt want the generic one t-shirt fits all venues one.
Also, I never drink alcohol at an sx race. The entertainment is good enough, why do I need buzz? I like to take it all in and remember it.
So to answer your question ....$100
He ALREADY has the hotel, tiks and Blow
With 300 bucks you will have more than enough after paid expenses, Look into Pit passes.
Ask GuyB to take a pic of you & your date. He can put it up here so you can pass the initiation.
Snacks and a some water are a must! Next time I will be bringing a couple PB&J's and a larger water container if I can.
