    We payed between $1.60 and $2.30 a litre for fuel to get there!

    My mates rode up via Birdsville and the Simpson. Then stayed for the race and did my pit crew. They had a great couple of weeks. I am bringing one of their XR650’s home with me. There are lots of ways to enjoy Finke. Just being in Alice Springs for race week is enough! Every one gets behind the race. It’s great to see a community pull together like this!

    It was around $600 entry plus you can choose to use club fuel stops for an extra $200 or so. But it costs most to put fuel in your car to get there unless you are reasonably close to start with. I live around 2400km away. So fuel was the big cost. We camped and did nearly all our own meals.

    I was wondering about fuel on course is that just for the race or does it cover pre running too? $200 seems a little steep, I am from sunshine coast 3100k’s each way + side trips

    Raced in 2012 and it cost around $6000 for each of us. That was staying in a cabin for about ten days and close to a 6k round trip from south coast NSW.
