First, I run my program as a business. So, all assets have a depreciation schedule. But, if you wanted to put a yearly schedule on truck, trailer, and racecar, it would be less than $20,000.00 a year. My maintenance is less than $5,000.00 per car each year. This excludes upgrades as they are not a necessity.

I don't see that there is really that much money in that pot, even if you do get your wish.

To enhance the purse, the racers can put together a cal-cutter like they do at bracket races. Any racer can enter, even spectators and the last man standing gets the purse. Doesn't mean you have to win the race, you just have to be last that entered the cal-cutter or spectator that entered your car. Doesn't have to be big money, say $10. Per entry.

Entered one at the Vegas National in 2020 for $100. Took home the money! Would definitely do it again.

I'd be satisfied just to see it go to my friends in Tech and on the Safety Safari. Those guys deserve it more than anyone.
