Military aircraft are flying all the time. Pilots have to fly enough hours to keep their ratings. The aircraft you see doing a fly over is not wasting taxpayer money, if they were not there they would be somewhere where that many people would not see them. SO, we as taxpayers are paying for them to fly. Thankfully we get to see them and should appreciate it. AND, it is not a waste of money!

The team owner pays for the cars, and the sponsor pays racing expenses. There are variables, such as tires, and fuel. Some teams will have to cover that, and sometimes the sponsor does. The individual car manufacturers that are represented, provide the motors, and the research expenses spent to keep competative. I have not been directly involved with that series for some time now, but, I think to field a car, with backup, for, say Daytona, would be right around a million. Just a guess....

It doesn't cost NASCAR anything if it's military aircraft. I'm a Marine pilot, and we do sporting event flyovers all the time. We love it, because it's a recruiting pitch for the military, training (and fun) for the pilots, and entertainment for the crowd. Win-win-win.

You pay for flyovers with your tax money. I hope it's worth seeing them.

Usually F-16s, but other planes do surface especially at Texas Motor Speedway because of the base, in which sometimes F-22s fly or F-15s.

There are flyovers by jets at NASCAR races because it was a way to catch the attention of the fans.

Wheeler has been known to do some crazy stunts to catch fan's attention like motocross jumps and fireworks. He has even accidentally set Charlotte Motor Speedway president, Bruton Smith, on fire!
