Default RACE!?

Hey there all, I have somewhat of a survey for all, what would you guys say if i wanted to organize and plan a semi-cross country subaru/srt4 race? It would be held in June of '07 and would consist of 25 subarus and 25 srt 4's. Now my main question is how many would be interested in racing? the entry fee would $2,500 and the 1st place winner would take home $25,000. It would be a 4 day event spanning 6 states starting in L.A. and ending in L.A.
please let me know your thoughts and input drop me a line for questions or comments at alimoni215@yahoo.com
and yes i am very serious but i want to know if people would be ineterested first

Too far for me, and the price is way too high. I'd rather participate in the Hot Rod Power Tour personally.

The fee is alittle on the high side for me[:@]. This is in my back yard, but I'm with LSP on this, I'd rather do the Hot Rod Power Tour thing.

you guys are right it is a little hefty but common for a chance at 25k and your odds with 50 cars isnt bad...but also for the price you get rooms to stay in at each checkpoint a track day at the utah salt flats and then a finish line party in L.A.

Sorry. A cross country Subie race would be cool too. A little too pricey and far away for me though.
