Just like many successful businesses, the NHRA has grown significantly over the years and with that growth comes more employees and related operational expenses. If they cannot meet those expenses through event ticket sales, memberships, and race car fees they have to get creative as a means of meeting their financial obligations. That is the most likely reason their sponsorship program is set up the way it is. Unfortunately, they have chased away some pretty good sponsors.

On another note, I was told that all racers in the pro ranks do not have to pay admission to any of the NHRA events, is this true?
