figure how much the 43 teams that enter cars each week spend in preparation. then add in how much NASCAR and the track owners spend on promoting and getting everything ready. also add in how much the network covering it has tied up in setting up for it, and it becomes a not to very cheap Endeavor (pun kind of intended).. and they do it 35 times a year.

Remember our standard 'cost' reply. That money isn't simply burned up in 42 barreled caburators. It's spent and helps the economy.
