To Race A Full Season

[racincowboy02]

What would it cost to run a full season so to speak on the national tours? How many cars do you have to have how many engines do you have to have? Tires and shocks are a big expense too i know

i friend of mine, and i won't use names, has funded a woo team, he says 300-400 per year if you don't have several big crashes, now thats with some new pieces at the beginning of the year, and 2 full time guys' hauler and all the bills, now if you get help it could be cheaper, trucking company (sponsor for the hauler fuel) ect, you can save some but I'm going to say 250 at a minimum thats if you get plenty of help

now if you win a ton, you can take some of that away and the big guys get plenty of product sponsors, and that saves some too

Wow thats crazy. OK so if they win a race how much does the team owner get and how much does the driver get is it a set amount or does it vary

It varies. I will say in 2015 Davenport got rich.
