You were asking where the money would/could come from. You were given two examples.
The profit percentage per car is the same, so NHRA makes the exact same amount of money on the factory race cars regardless of what class they enter. The new class does not cost NHRA money. In fact, with a new class, NHRA makes more money.
Well, the manufacturers, for their expenditure, would get a class that showcases their cars. So, it would be to their advantage.
A lot of the Hemi cars do not bother to run eliminations. The Hemi cars do not get a free pass on AHFS hits, either.
