There are a number of companies that sell SFI1 "lemons" packages that are a bit over $300 that include gloves, shoes, suit, nomex underwear +/- helmet for extra. The license to race a weekend is $150, then normally the team asks for some compensation to let you fling their (read:my) car around.

Biggest expense that I'm going to have to get over is a HANS.
