I am not sure this is the case anymore with the number of entries capped. NHRA nets less than $2 million annually from sportsman racers National Event entry fees after payouts. This is an organization that brings in almost $100 million a year.

While we spend extra $ with crew, licenses, chassis certs, etc. NHRA has extra staff, track prep and equipment just for us.

NHRA would net more money buy figuring out how to put 1,500 spectators in the stands at each event.
