Total Weekend Payout = $22,000
Total Advertising Cost = $500

Total income minus advertising and payout = $96,370
*Then subtract NHRA's cut ($50,000), manpower($20,000), insurance ($5000), overhead($10,000),.......

Track owner's cut = $21,370

Of course many of the values are estimates, but I think a little advertising goes a long way. I never see ads any more for Division or National Events.
The sad part is what the track took home doesn't even pay for 1/4 of the taxes they pay per month. Like I said when you have politicians who are not making a dime off the track and are not "car guys" they will do everything and anything to make it so high that they can't do improvements and put the place out of business so they can build the next big shopping mall or business park or housing development.
