A bunch of years back, I saw a good discussion on a racing message board. Sammy Swindell had done something that displeased Ted Johnson, owner of the World of Outlaws. In turn, Ted had levied a fine aganst Sammy. The discussion was about where the money went from the fine. Someone came up with the correct answer- "Ted pocketed the money, for the good of the sport".
Fast-forward several decades. Suppose that some random race franchise levied a fine against some random driver for some unspecified behavior against some unspecified other party before a race at some random track in Wisconsin. Where would the money go?

I knocked a driver out on the front stretch one time and the sanctioning series gave my winnings to the driver I laid out. Best $200 ever....

Some racing organizations have an injured drivers fund that fine money may go to..
