Just my 2 cents

Sorry, but this is not even close to being accurate .
Not sure how many times we all have to go over this....

Typical National Event:
say 1,000 sportsman entries, car and crew x $350 each $350,000
100,000 Spectators over the three days, at an average of say $40 each: $4,000,000

And this is not counting all the promotional items sold to the spectators.

The fuel cars bring the spectators, and the spectators pay for it. Which allows us to play with our expensive toys at the big show.
