This means drivers have $235,000 to start the season. The driver will the receive winnings from each race. Out of the drivers winnings he will then have to pay for weekly expences. The driver will then pay for any damage done to the car. This system rewards drivers who stay out of trouble. A driver can finish last without any damage and still get a gain of 3,000 after expences. While a driver could win but finish in the red after causing severe damage to 4 parts of the car body.

Damage Deductions

The damage report each race will come from the replay analyser. The total damage will be taken from the end report. This will not include damage that the crew fixed during the race. Below is a listing of the cost of each part that can be damaged during the race. In the event a part is damaged that isn't on the list the ASA series director will come up with a price and it will be added to the list. The second table lists all the different known part of the car body that can be damaged. The final listing is an example on how the damage assesment is done.

At the current time it is being considered that if a driver is penaltized for aggressive driving he could also have to pay for the car damage done to the other driver or drivers.

Engine Problem $10,000
