There is surely a lot more money coming in at a national event, then a divisional race. So why is the payout less for sportsman racers at the national events? Then the waiting starts for the contingency money, IF you hound them enough for it. It's getting harder and harder to justify why we do this, but we do.

I may be wrong and/or things have changed but the tracks are responsible for the divisional payouts and the NHRA pays nationals. Another reason why so many tracks are having trouble staying in business.
