Here's some interesting figures.(space)The NHRA's top dog,(space)top fuel dragster driver Schumacher has earned $590,000 so far this year. The NASCAR Craftsman truck point leader (Musgrave) has earned $414,000. Although Dennis Setzer is the Truck 'money leader' at $526,000. New Jersey's own, Martin Truex Jr. is currently the NASCAR Busch points & money champ at 1.4 million. NASCAR's point leader (Stewart) has earned $6.3 million thus far.(space)I wasn't able to get ASA,(space)or ARCA division earnings.

Whelan Mods

Tony Hirshman has won over $92,000
Ted Christopher $91,000


Arca doesn't post winning but there races probably pay about 1/4 to 1/3 what a Busch race pays so the top winner should be in the $250,000 to $350,000 range.

ASA is no longer, new series owner bankrupted them.

ARCA PAYOUT: The Budweiser/NBC 24 Glass City 200 presented by the Great Lakes Chevy Dealers pays $7000 to win and $1000 to start. With a solid payout down the line, a great field of cars is once again expected. With bonus money and lap money ($10 per lap) available, a driver could walk away with over $10,000 for the weekend!
