are you talking races or poker runs? For races there is not a charge that I am aware of.

Poker runs are anywheres from $300.00 to $600.00 in and out. They usually charge by the foot

Had a guy in Sarasota tell us $600 a couple of years ago, and I told him to go F*ck himself

I could have an extra hour at Cheetah's for that
