NASCAR

That is a relative question. If you are a major owne, like Rausch ,you make a big heap of money. On the other hand, if you are a privateer, like Robby Gordon, you barely make enough to keep racing. Equality does not reign in NASCAR; capitalism does. Bottom line, NASCAR is a rich man's sport and the more money you have to sink into your team the better your results and the more money you make. That does not make big team owners evil, it makes them successful. It's the American way.

No, NASCAR engines are cooled by water. Ethylene glycol cannot be used due to the fact that if there is a wreck, the track will remain slick in that area and a hazard. In addition, it would not be good for the environment.

When I was racing the small roundi-rounder tracks they usually measured the "inside", The smallest part of the track.

Need to know how to measure a race track? Obviously if you run up around the outside wall you are traveling significantly farther than if you are down at the bottom of the turn. So how does NASCAR measure? They measure track length from the point 15-feet in from the outside wall. This means that at many tracks the drivers are traveling a shorter distance than advertised (but not by much).

First the lug nuts are attached to the wheels with a form of gasket sealant, then when the time comes to put the wheel on the car, it is done with an airgun or airsocket wrench.

Kurt Busch won on March 8th at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Depends on how many cautions there are and what part of the day it is. It also depends on the track itself. Some tracks use up tires more quickly and drivers want them changed every chance they can, while other tracks are more forgiving and using older tires is about the same as using new ones.
