40 large?? Hell back in 03 Alex Job offered me a seat for 25 large per race ( Becky can verify). That was a championship team car. Bet 40 would buy more than a weekend with his team now.

Oh and as a comparison, our 08 honeymoon, LeMans and French GP, 3 weeks in France, 2 of them in Paris, was less than 10k including flights. And that was when the euro was really kicking our ass.

Neither were mine. We stayed in an apartment on the top floor with a balcony and an elevator. Great having a morning coffe and fresh croissant on a balcony in June in Paris.

No, while sitting in #23. He's a really easy guy totalk with and Rebecca and I spent a lot of time with the team at Mosport. Seat "rental" isn't as uncommon as you'd think. Although its usually for a season.
