Thread on livestream stated the win was $173k, and the splits started at 20 cars.

Not true, Jeff took home less than $100,000 from his Million win earlier this year and just over $150,000 last night.

Ok. I was basing it on before any split(s). Still a nice chunk of change, almost a quarter-million dollars for two wins (the same basically as twenty-one [21] national event wins).

almost a 1/4 million is a big difference from almost $600,000.

Still great wins and I believe more $ than anyone has ever won bracket racing in a single year.

And for inquiring minds, round by round coverage. http://dragstory.com/forum/index.php/topic,4112.0.html


Yes - splits are common in this type of $$$$ racing. Not so much in Class Racing because the $ is not that big.

I was following the event on MotorMania, that is quite the race. Congratulations to Jeff, that guy is a machine with a deadly car. Hard to believe two door cars made it to the final, and one was a truck! Brad Plourd was ru of Friday's race in a door car also.
Can somebody explain how the splits work?
Thanks,

Funny you should ask about splits. Current Issue of Drag Racing Edge - https://dragracingedge.com/magazine/2016/dre-issue-5/ - is a story on just that.

Thanks John, interesting article. Seems like there is no set format, the racers make it up as they go.
