The actual purse money isn't enough to bother with, and there are too many variables to consider with contingency (some cars are stickered up vs some that aren't, are the companies actually going to pay, etc) that I don't know how you'd figure out a decent split.
In a bracket race where all the money is clearly defined? Absolutely but if so, that's an indictment of the promoter's purse structure.
