Rory, I'm one of those guys. In '03 I won the World Nationals at Nowalk and I got 1500.00 from IHRA. In '14 I was lucky enough to win the Bristol National event. NHRA payed me 1200.00. LOL. But, I don't do it for the money, never have and never will. I race because that's what I do for fun. It's a hobby for me (and most of us, I'm sure). Because it's what I love to do. If the NHRA said, no more payouts, I'd still do it.
