I'd be very interested to know how far apart we are (partly because I find GLTC very appealing).

That’s true and would be an interesting data point. The guys on the podium definitely put a lot of money in to it, but I have a co-worker who bought an ex-ITA spec Miata that he competes in. He’s usually in the back half of the field, but having a blast and only into the car for as much as a used twin.

There’s more discussion about sponsors and stuff too, but that’s a slippery slope.
