Driver salaries, much like the teams they represent, vary. The smaller teams generally pay 50 percent of their winnings to the driver. The elite teams use a formula of salary and commission. Some of the higher-profile drivers make about $185,000 a week.The rest of the race team is next, with an average weekly payroll of $83,500.That takes care of the mechanics, pit crew, public relations team, truck driver and engineers. Keeping a 200-mph race car at full speed costs about $50,000 a week for parts and pieces.he rest of the race team is next, with an average weekly payroll of $83,500.

It was a 220 outlet on the wall (big, dryer type plug) with the plug running to a power strip that had standard 110/120 plugs. This power strip was labeled 220V. THere was another power strip plugged into that that was unlabled.Then the computer was plugged into its own power strip.e plugged in a computer to a power strip and it went FZZZZT POP!. Come to find out the power strip is plugged into a 220 outlet. The outlet looks like I would expect any 220 (bigger, different plug configuration).
Â­ Let's start with what the holes in an outlet do. When you look at a normal 120-volt outlet in the United States, there are two vertical slots and then a round hole centered below them. The left slot is slightly larger than the right. The prongs on a plug fit into these slots in the outlet. If you have read How Batteries Work, you know that electricity must flow in a circuit. In a battery, electricity flows from one terminal of the battery to the other. In a house outlet, power flows from hot to neutral. The appliance you plug into an outlet completes the circuit from the hot slot to the neutral slot, and electricity flows through the appliance to run a motor, heat some coils or whatever.
