Race teams pay for these races by securing sponsor dollars. Teams typically
use primary (hood sponsors) and associate (side & rear) sponsors,
which benefit from the television and media exposure.
If a race team manages to get a primary sponsor for $6,000,000, how
much more money must be raised from associate sponsors?
