I think the spectators $55 each x 35,000 which is almost $2,000,000 probably is where the money is and they’re not paying that to watch my SC car go 8.90
I suspect The Sportsman racers bring in a lot of money to NHRA .The advertising in News Media helps sales, the entry fees helps NHRA, the money paid to NHRA to belong to NHRA Club House The manufacturing row at NHRA used to be big but companies were priced out to be there these days . I could go on and on about how Sportsman bring a lot of money into NHRA bank account most likey in each of the National events adds up in a year, I dont mind them making money as long as we can race at their tracks . Remember the sportsman are the minor league of racing with NHRA no matter what we think. NHRA needs sportsman at the races by the way to fill in between the Pros racimg Plus making sure the pits are fill to create a EVENT for the Paying spectator for sure I dont mind this now a days just having a ball racing don't let anyone keep me from having a good time Life is short I am at level 72 must enjoy life quicker nowadays lol at me
