The Cost of Racing

In response to Rochelle’s famous Friday Fictioneers challenge. My 100 word story follows the picture. For more entertainment just click on the little blue Froggie  and see what everyone  else comes up with. Always interesting.

“That looks like an invoice Tony. Is It?”

“Yup, a $18,000 bill. I tell you that kid is going to bankrupt this organization. He still thinks he’s running  moonshine in North Carolina like his  old  man. And that’s just for the stupid tires that he has ruined trying those crazy maneuvers. Add in the $63,000 for a new engine, mufflers, rims, and ruptured gas tanks and the total is over $100,00 just to get him to the finish line much less earn any purse money.”

My advice is still the same Tony. “Keep making those left hand turns and never-never turn right.”

  1. That’s an expensive sport to be in. I’ve seen racing fuel at some gas stations that must have had gold dust in it for the price. As long as he never turns right, maybe he can make it though.
