NASCAR and NHRA. Can they be business partners?

Nascar tv money is currently huge. Dover speedway received over 30 million in tv revenue in 2017 from nascar tv package for 2 races according to public corporate documents. 10 year tv contracts were signed. They are running out soon and with major loss in tv ratings recently will be interesting.
Nascar splits tv money with teams and tracks.

NASCAR has been part owner of Joliet since the 2nd year it existed. At that time ISC was a partnership between NASCAR and the IRL. (The France and George families) That's how they got the NASCAR track built.

NASCAR and NHRA used to be partners back in the late 50s early 60s. Somewhere in my treasures I have a ticket from a NASCAR/NHRA drag race from I think 1962.

With a brain trust like those two how could they fail ?
