It's almost like enrolling in the Harvard of racing universities. And where did the 250k number come from, could be speculation, could be BS.
The $250k a season is what I have also heard from a former mechanic on the team. KKM also has guys running the house cars for purse money and those guys have earned the ride. Totally agree with you, go buy your own truck, trailer, cars, motors, and 25 years of experience it is going to cost you probably more without the success or name recognition.
