Does the distribution include the win and round money purse structure?

How long can a non-profit survive if there are no profits at all?

The "non-profit" status of the NHRA is more of a tax dodge than simply not being profitable. You can see from their published filings that in most cases their revenue is greater than their expenses.

Seeing as most of their members are racers, I would say they are doing a good job of not distributing any of the profits to their members.::

I have not seen their latest filing, but I wouldn't be surprised to see that their revenue is still greater than their expenses. A non profit organizational status can have net revenues or "profits" and often do as a long term entity. They are not taxed on those net revenues or profits like C or S corporation for example.
