    Kyle Larson's Base salary for Chip Ganassi racing in 2020 was $8,000,000 before he was fired. There where also $800,000 in endorsements, putting his Salary at $8.8 million for 2020.
    Kyle Busch's base salary for Gibbs in 2020 is set at $16,000,000.
    The money in dirt racing is no where near Nascar's level.

        After these older drivers have hung up there helmets the salaries are dropping faster than the stock market. It's been reported HMS drivers aren't getting anything near what the guys that had big contracts locked up.

          I don't think any Cup drivers are going to be fleeing to the Lucas Oil dirt late model series.

            Don't know if Waldo's numbers are accurate but I remember when the sh1t first hit the fan with Kyle, he put 3 very pricey homes on the market. He had to be making some pretty good coin up to that point.

              I think hes close cuz reports said kyle got up front $ and that he got the rest at season end. They reported ganassi saved like 8 or 9 mil by letting larson go. I think kyle got like just under 1 mil up front. It was like 800 or 900 thousand.

                He only ended up selling the unfinished one. Still lives in the same house

                    dirtcrazy4u........................

                    The purse for this year's Daytona 500 in 2020 was 23.6 million dollars...........23.6 million dollar purse for that 1 race. There is no argument.

                      2020 was the Highest paying Daytona 500 in history, nothing dropping.

                        I'm guessing those guys you're referring to are JJ, Gordon, and Jr.. The guys currently under contract with Hendrick have a long way to go to get to the status them boys attained. They're all kids at the beginning of their careers. Rick's payroll is probably smaller now than ever before.

                          Look at TSR. HARVICK by far is making the most money. Boyer is leaving because of money. Cole Custer, Eric Amirolla combined don't make what Boyer was. I say when harvick's contract is up he will be gone also, unless he wins the cup title, then you mite see him around for another year.

                            Didn't Bowyer retire?

                                Here is the 2014-2015 numbers. The rest is incomplete for some reason. You'll see the earnings column in the middle of the table
