What are you trying to suggest Rod, I am getting too old for this reading between the lines stuff
Just as a matter of interest I looked at the MSNZ schedule of fee's.... if I was stupid enough to re-enter the sport at the level I left it ~1984 it would now cost me ~$1425.00 just to comply with the paperwork for year one [ year two would be less assuming no COD/roll cage/ licence upgrades etc & only renewals ]... IIRC it was costing in the region of $200.00pa in 1984.
