0 Subject: SSHR -- Interesting facts about travel costs

Posted by: Madman - [21020124] Mon, Mar 25, 2002, 01:16
I'm trying to figure out ways to maximize BP accumulation. I think the following chart is very interesting and perhaps useful in this regard. Out of the 82 current tracks, here are the number of tracks that ARE WITHIN $310 of the track in question.

If you are trying to gain Claimer BP points, this is a great guide to help you do that. Also, if you have a new stable, this guide tells you how many other tracks are exempt from all travel costs:

That's why I'm looking at this issue -- you can't just look at the state / country name and get a feel for how far it is to travel.

I think I might break this down into regions. Ohio -- Midwest, Delaware -- NE, Texas -- SW, Oregon -- Pac West, Western Europe, Australia, maybe Asia. Haven't figured out the best way to do it.

But keeping your horses under the $310 is a major consideration for BP maxing.
