Under the proposed revenue sharing system, AGR's four-car armada would take a pay cut since Dario Franchitti, Tony Kanaan, Danica Patrick and Marco Andretti earned more than $7 million in 2007 and would receive "only" $5.2 million in 2008. (For more info):

NASCAR drivers salaries, thanks to SportsIllustrated.cnn.com. SI says the highest-paid driver in 2005 was Dale Earnhardt Jr., whose annual salary and earnings totaled $5,761,830, but that's not all. His endorsements earned $20,000,000, bringing his sub-total compensation to $25,761,830. That number doesn't include sales of Dale Earnhardt Jr. merchandise and earnings from the racing company that he owns. SI says his total take in '05 would approach $50 million!
The second $25 million is really for his role as a business owner, not directly for Dale Jr.'s work as a race car driver. While there are substantial risks to racing (Dale Sr. died on the race track), the pay is still impressive.

How much do stunt car drivers get paid?
Most Demolition derby drivers don't get paid any sort of salary or paycheck. What usually happens is that for every race there is a fee to enter, and if you come in one of the top three places you get part of the "purse". The purse is a pre-defined amount of money for each of the three places. For local races the first place winning can be as little as afew hundred dollars. what this means is that each driver needs to pay for his car, pay for the cost of modifying it for the race, and pay to enter the race. But only the top three drivers get any money back. So for most of the drivers the race costs them money, rather than makes them money. Some drivers are able to get sponsorships, but this is often just enough to help pay for the expenses noted above, and not enough money to live on. For most Demo Derby drivers it is a hobby, and not a source of income.
