[QUOTE="Erik D_lux, post: 785289, member: 15954"] Another thing to think about is who your target audience will be Wheeling isnt wheeling anymore. There are people that like to take their stock pretty rigs up and drive on basically a dirt road. Then there are guys that like to build their rigs to and extreme and bash them up. Of course there are lots of people in between too. I think a perfect park would be something like Moab. Moab is as easy as it can get and it gets pretty hard too. Something for everyone. To make your investment back you would have to bring in as many people as you could. To me this would mean bringing in the whole group of wheelers from hardcore to beginners. Again this will bring you back to space constraints. There is lots of talk about being hardcore or getting out wheeling a lot on the internet. When it boils down to it 99% is all talk. From what I have seen up at Reiter there are quite a few that wheel. If you could get your $500K up front and needed another $400k to get everything situated your now looking at ~$3500 per month or $875 per weekend. Thats every weekend even in the winter, holidays. I would be really really surprised if you could pull a consistent 100 people over each weekend. If you could you would have to charge them almost $9 per day. And right there I think you just lost some business when then can go somewhere else for free. [/QUOTE]
