Tom Compton Interview on DRO

[Bobby Fazio]

My question is how did the organization get $22 million in debt? I wish they could have gone further into that. All the sponsors, memberships, competition numbers, entry fees, official this/that of the nhra, event billing, series billing (Winston at the time?), etc. seems like the sanctioning body would have been bringing in much more than they were spending. What overhead costs did NHRA have that was not being covered by the aforementioned revenue intake? Not being sarcastic, just curious.
