I too, struggle with this concept of 'club' motorsport, certainly within historic racing. Everybody has different budget levels and whilst there are class divisions, I've never detected, from my perspective, that they're based on money or which club you belong to. You pay whatever the going rate is to enter the races you want at the circuits you want, with the club or organiser that you want. It's a free market economy.
AFAIK (and at the risk of starting an unseasonal row), club subscriptions and entry fees are not the most significant part of a racer's budget.

Can I be amongst the first on here to wish everybody a happy, safe and healthy Christmas
