I went over to the road racers side of the track at PBIR, They were testing 3 Ferraris, they told me that they went through 3 drums of fuel, 2 sets of brake pads and this was just testing. So I asked them what kind of purse they race for. The answer was "it's a gentlemen's race" with a trophy and notoriety as the purse. I asked them how much each car was valued at, this was a few years ago, between 150 to 200k each. So when you look at how much NHRA is going to pay as a purse, let's hope they don't talk to the road racers.
