It probably takes $200K or more to go up and down the road and with rising costs of diesel, hotels and food. I once had a driver who ran WoO and All Stars and other races throughout his career and said his bank account had more money in it when he ran the All Stars vs. the Outlaws cuz he didn't have to travel and could get home more often and didn't need a motorhome with the All Stars. This is the point I'm driving home. The gross numbers look great, but the net numbers aren't as robust. I did listen to Brian Carter. His points were one sided, right? He wants to make sure that you're seeing it the way he wants you to see it. Are they making more than previously, yes They still only get $500 tow money per race. On a two day show they get one tow money fee and then they have to pay for the crew to stay at hotel and feed them for two nights, right? It takes anywhere between $1M-$1.2M to run the full deal at a competitive level, now some teams don't spend that and it shows, but the top teams do. The math doesn't add up. The top teams use the sponsorships to cover their operational gaps financial.

What percentage do the drivers get on a topWOO team? I don't know but that has to be taken off the prize money. So the owners are getting a lot less then the posted numbers. And do tewam owners get any cut off shirt sales? TIA
