"You need some hard numbers and signature committment"
It costs $10,400 per day to rent Seattle and there are additional cost on top of that of $4-5,000. Do the numbers and get the commitment. I don't know if you have noticed but we only have the track until 4:30 on Saturdays due to the drags.
Do you know why SCCA does not have regionals at Seattle and last year they canceled the Bremerton regional? Can't get the turn out and therefore no races. Not enough money generated to pay the freight. IRDC has to generates enough money to pay to race the next year, we don't have a head office in Topeka to borrow money from. I've seen 2-3 posts that indicated they want to do it.
It is always doable if you get enough people to volunteer to help put on the event and enough people that want to do it to pay the freight.
