sportscar/ gt drivers salaries

[nreed]

does anyone know what a good sportscar/gt driver makes per year? any exapmles, etc. i's appreciate any info

my information is based entirely on guesswork, but I would imagine a 'name' driver could make £50-£250,000 for LeMans, but a lower ranking driver might make around £30,000 plus expenses for a year in a championship, with the freedom to do any other work which does not conflict with their primary contractor. Guesswork, I repeat.Most likely said driver would have to bring a sponsor.Or two.

Randy Pobst made 250,000 American dollars last year from factory Porsche. I don't know what Kim Hiskey is paying him to run with her in G/A and other events though.

I think drivers such as Kristensen and Biela and Mangnussen are on $1,000,000

This was from the 80's but at the Grand Prix of Palm Beach in apx 89/90 Bob Wolleck (RIP) was paid apx $15000 US by Dauer for the weekend and the all conquering Nissan drivers Brabham etc got apx $20/25000 US per event, I am sure they get more now.
