Companies sponsor NASCAR itself, such as Sprint, which purchased the naming rights to the premier series. Fans buy tickets, merchandise, and food as well, and I'm not positive, but the tracks might have to pay NASCAR just to be on the schedule.

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.
