The cost is pretty high ($200 per plane), which is a significant increase over last year. Also, the race has been dramatically shortened. Maybe the price looked good in previous years when they bought you a lot more gas, and the race took more than 2 hours (The Legacy's and IV's will be finishing this year's race in about 90 minutes, and most of the 320 / 360 guys will still likely be about 2 hours). A single leg at that price? The passes to the flight line and good parking is nice, but if you only intend to stay for a day or two I just can't justify it... Am I looking at this wrong?
