ROFLMAO. An extremely successful (makes a living racing) friend who shall remain nameless, told me that in 2008 he could make over $15K on a win in Stock, he said that by 2012 it was $5K at best. You do the math.

So the contingency plus NHRA'S grand purse to win a national event this year is $10,000 less than what is was in 2008? How is that possible?
