$$$$$$$$$$$

• Ever wonder what the cost is to get into a race like the Mint 400

Before we get into the cost break down, mind you there is tons of different products. We picked products and brands we are either currently using before getting into racing or they have a great rep. Some items on this list will be optional or some items I have yet to purchase. This is to get you a rough idea what your cost could be (sky is the limit when it comes to building something like this.) This also depends on what class you will be running. make sure to follow your race regulations as they can change from each class.  I'll be doing the rally class which allows me to race with little mods to my current sxs. most of the items are safety equipment needed to pass inspection. 

In this section I'll go over the items and also provide links to each item. these items are needed to enter the race. 

• Assault Roll cage UTV INC $2,200.00  Needed   
• Front bumper UTV INC $440.00  Needed   
• upgraded doors UTV Giant  $599.00  needed  
• Chase Lights  Rigid Industries  $800.00  Needed   
• Evo 2 seats (2) Sparco USA $1,650.00  Needed
• Impact 1320 pre wired helmet (2) Impact $1,008.00  needed
• conquest suit (2) Sparco USA $800.00  Needed
• Pit Stop shoes (2) Sparco USA $260.00  Needed
• Land + Gloves (2) Sparco USA $200.00  Needed   
• racing harness 6 point (2) Sparco USA $800.00  Needed   
• Racing neck brace (2) Sparco USA $700.00  Needed   
• Rear bumper  UTV INC $308.00  needed  

Which brings the total to $9,457.00

This next section is for optional items that I feel will help you during the race. some of these should be in the needed section but you could do the race without these. mind you these items are what I have came up and this list could change as I get closer to the race.

• Adapt 10" light Rigid Industries $900.00

Total on optional items : $21,339.00

which brings me to a total cost of $31,104.00. This doesn't include the price of the random stuff that will need to be purchased (gas cans, hand tools, extra radios for the chase truck or trailer, jacks, fire extinguisher that need to be in the sxs and also with the pit crew.) I'll be adding more as we get closer and start buying more
