I don't know if the NHRA operates like a for-profit business or not, but Mr. Compton's salary doesn't seem that excessive to me when compared with the others. If he were making 30-50% more than the average I would say yes, that's excessive, but less than 10%?
Also, could it be possible that the anonymous client has the initials BN?

Toby I would guess NHRA is no where close to one of the top ten trade associations in the US. The US chamber of commerce is one of the larger ones. How about Dallas Gardner , 10hrs. a week for $317,000 per year. The big money is in their expenses and where all that goes will be interesting.
