When my son was racing, he and my husband made flyer type things, describing any races won, and a list of how much things cost, etc. and attached a picture of him in the kart after he won a race(holding the checkered flag). They personally took them to anyone they wanted to sponsor them. Make sure you put their logo on your kart, and send them personal letters thanking them. My son also sent pics to them to show how he was doing. \nHope this helps, and good luck to you.

It depends.\n\nSome funds are used to support charitable causes.  The leagues given collective baragining agreement defines some of this.\n\nLeagues do try to avoid the perception that they are fining players to generate revenue or exectuve bonuses.

it depends on the contract they have with their car owner, and team. like take jeff gordon for case. he gets part of his winnings. part go into the team and to rick hendrick, but he also gets part of jimmies winnings as he is part car owner. your car owner fronts the money for everything, and then gets part of your earnings for your career. \nas for an exact amount it would be very hard to say. but let's face it.. yeah, none of them are hurting. they will probably make more money than they can actually spend. they all live fairly simple lifes as far as famous people go. yeah, they don't make near as much as NFL or NBA players, but they also lead much simplier lifes, and also, put a lot of money back into their car, and and a lot to charity. as for earnings won from each race (not take home pay..but winnings) you can go to nascar.com and see each individuals driver page and it will list for each race.

I have been a NASCAR fan a very long time.  NASCAR used to vary the amount of cars that would be allowed to participate at any give race depending on the track.  It wasn't until about 9 or maybe 10 years ago that NASCAR ruled that only 43 cars would be allowed to participate at every race.  This makes for especially fun and exciting races at tracks like Bristol and Richmond.  There are rare cases where there are less than 43 cars start the race, but never more than 43 cars become far too dangerous on the track.

I don’t think they ever can when they are competing directly with the NFL.  I am a big fan of both sports.  I am just glad I have a split screen ability on my TV.  I read this week now they are going to start the races later in the day.  If I remember correctly they will start no race earlier than 2pm EST, this might help.  I would like to see NASCAR move races to Saturday night.  I think this would help them gain more viewers.

Sure...it's a small NASCAR fix, but at least it's a FIX! One week from the last race and I'm already Jonesin'!\n\nAnother long, cold, NASCARless winter...it sucks.\n\nWhat really made the year better was the fantasy racing. We used to do a deal called "Kafenatid". The guy that ran the site hung it up, but we made our own, with an Excel prog and "kafenatid's" rules (1 Ford, 1 Chevy, 1 Dodge and 3 Wildcards). You accumulate the points that the drivers earn. I kicked-ass again! ; ) All done by email and the deadline for picks is noon on race day. Not sure what to do about Toyota entering the arena...hate to validate them with their own slot.\n\nGITIT!\nrounder

What is this "nascar" you speak of?
292042
Yes. With the "Race to the Cup" for the top ten for one thing. When one position in points can mean hundreds of thousands of $, I feel sorry for the guy in eleventh place. Under the old rule 11Th place could possibly move up a couple of spots to 8Th or 9Th, maybe. And what are all these penalties for "non-approved" parts. These parts aren't illegal, just not from a supplier that has sucked up (payed off?) to NASCAR. Used to be you could run any part that conformed with the rules. It didn't matter if you built it yourself or bought it. And these young drivers, used to be that a driver had a few years of experience before moving up to NASCAR's big league. These new drivers are good, but inexperienced. And the new drivers all seem to fit the cookie cutter corporate image. They are good looking and articulate. A short guy like Cale Yarbourgh, or a driver that spoke like his mouth was full of marbles like Buddy Baker, or an ex-convict like Junior Johnson, wouldn't make it in today's corporate racing world. I think NASCAR should stop being such a glamor sport and go back to basics, go fast, turn left, and may the best driver/car win. I'm curious as to how many of these race fans are really fans. A lot of these people only watch racing on the TV or maybe attend a couple of NASCAR races a year. How many go to their local short track? Almost everyone in the contiental U.S. is within an hour's drive to a local track. These tracks offer about 4 hours or more of entertainment for under $15 on most nights. Whether the track is paved or dirt, running late models, open wheeled sprint cars or modifieds, you will probaly see some exciting racing. As I said before, let's get back to basics.

When you pay the money you are suppose to be on a list for advertisers to pick from. I paid my money 6 years ago and never got  picked. I think you would be better off if you contacted a company directly (for example Pizza Hut), and ask them about putting their ad on your  car, or driving their ad car.

GO TO NASCAR.COM AND SIGN UP FOR TRACKPASS. I THINK THAT'S THE ONLY LIVE PC ACCESS TO THE RACES.

NASCAR, the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, is the regulatory body of a number racing series; the three most popular tending to be Cup, Grand National, and Truck Series.\nEach Series (or division) has its own set of rules and regulations, including limits on vehicle and engine design. The common characteristics between series are the track design (usually an oval or "tri-oval" with a straight stretch of road where cars may "pit" for repairs, tires, and fuel), and colored flags displayed during the race: Green signified full speed racing, Yellow indicates a "Caution" period where no racing is allowed, Red a full stoppage, Black a penalty, White the final lap, and Checkered the end of the race.\nHowever, when most people talk about NASCAR, they are referring to the Cup Series, currently called NASCAR Nextel Cup (after the primary sponsor). Nextel Cup runs a 26 race regular season (plus an additional four races: the Budweiser Shootout, two Gatorade Duels, and the NASCAR Nextel All Star Challenge)that runs from February through September, during which drivers compete for points. Points are awarded for finishing position during the race, for leading a lap, and for leading the most laps during a race. Total points on the year determine your standing, and the Top 10 drivers (along with any drivers within 400 points of the leader) after the last regular-season race enter the 10-race Chase for the Nextel Cup. The leader's point total is reset to 5,050; and each following Chase driver is given 5 fewer points (5045, 5040, etc). \nAs of Race 8, drivers qualifying for the Chase are Matt Kenseth (driving the number 17 DeWalt Ford), Jimmie Johnson (48 Lowe's Chevy), Kasey Kahne (9 Dodge Dealers Dodge), Mark Martin (6 AAA Ford), Tony Stewart (20 Home Depot Chevy), Jeff Gordon (24 DuPont/Pepsi Chevy), Dale Earnhardt Jr. (8 Budweiser Chevy), Kevin Harvick (29 Reese's Chevy), Kyle Busch (5 Kellogg's Chevy), Casey Mears (42 Texaco/Havoline Dodge), Dale Jarrett (88 UPS Ford), Clint Bowyer (07 Jack Daniels Chevy), Jeff Burton (31 Cingular Wireless Chevy), Elliott Sadler (38 M&Ms Ford), Martin Truex Jr. (1 Bass Pro Shops/Tracker Chevy), and Carl Edwards (99 Office Depot Ford). There are four additional drivers within 10 points of the Chase.\nThe Grand National or Busch Series is often thought of as the "minor leagues", and is promoted as a showcase for up and coming talent. The Craftsman Truck Series offers a unique racing experience.\nAs for Mark Martin, he's driven the Roush Racing #6 car with a variety of primary sponsors since 1988, but he's been driving Cup series since 1981. He currently drives the number 6 for Roush in all three major series (sponsored by AAA in Nextel, Ameriquest in Busch and Scott's Miracle-Gro in Crafstman Truck). Martin has never won the Cup champsionship, but has finished outside of the top ten in points only twice since 1988.

Sponsorship of the program is what pays the bills for any commercial television show...including contestant prizes on game shows.  The producers of the show also have to come up with a certain portion of the money used.

this might help. There is a list of different kind of auto racing.
