Although some big-time owners may have only two cars on the track, they usually have an average of 13 or 14 cars under construction.
COST BREAKDOWN FOR A NASCAR TEAM
While the costs vary from team to team they are all close approximations for just one “typical” 2-car Nextel Cup team.
•Cars - $130,000 each
•Salaries for the teams - $3 million/year
•Drivers - $400,000 for a rookie up to several million for a top ten driver
•Travel - $1 million/year for each team
•Tires – At least $20,000 per race
•Engines - $40,000 each
YOU DO THE MATH.
