Price of drag racing Funny Cars? Well, only the millionaires with super wealthy sponsors can afford it, but, here's something I didn't know... the price of Nitro

 a 42 gallon barrel is about 1900. 

A funny car's season might get to the finals, and that would take about 130 gallons of nitro... about 6,000 just for fuel. 

All the other costs are much higher, of course, and total about 3 million a year. 

Jack Beckman, the 2012 Funny Car champion stepped away from racing at the end of 2020, and returned to his previous life as an elevator mechanic
