NASCAR Drivers Teams and Sponsors

Since NASCAR's inception in 1949, Chevrolet has the most wins by manufacturer, with 625 (as of 3/9/11). The second-most wins belong to Ford with 580, followed by 199 for Dodge, 191 for Plymouth and 154 for Pontiac.

The least amount of wins per manufacturer are 1 each for Jaguar and Nash.

The sponsors pick up the travel expenses for the teams. Different teams have different deals, but, a team like Hendrick, probably gets fuel, tires, and just about everything else paid for by sponsorship.

I don't have his personal income data, but his brother earned $4,200,330.00 in 2004 winning the championship. Keep in mind what a driver earns by winning or placing is not what he actually makes a year, you have to include personal appearances, commercials, adds, promotions, memorabilia, even games in some cases. A sports figure can double, triple or more His/her income by these latter factors, so stated income can be deceiving unless you can get a copy of his income tax return statement. (Kurt Busch won 3 races in 2004, Jimmie Johnson won 5 races in 2006 and earned $8,909,140.00, Jimmie Johnson won 10 races in 2007 and earned $7,646,420.00, Jimmie made more money winning 5 races then he did winning 10 races, so you see its how well you finish all the races that determines what you make and that goes for any driver.

UPDATE: In Nascar, to date he has won $46,854,158.00, in Nationwide he has won $13,247,964.00, in Camping World truck he has won $3,256,818.00.
