I worked full-time for a non-winning team for two and a half years. That department supported all the Cup and Busch operations, in addition to non-nascar race support.... and pop-up trips for the owners.... and their wives .... and maintenance ..... and on and on. And the pay was poor (I believe the "winning" teams offered much better pay). And the schedule 10 months out the year was on-call every day. EVERY DAY. And the hours were very long during the season (5am departures ... sit for 12 hours .. return). There are lots of Brasilias on the circuit, the previously mentioned Saab 2000s, a couple of CRJ-200's at least one ERJ, and lots of King Airs / BE1900s. (but a lot of the 19seaters are chartered, not team-owned).
The airports around Charlotte, NC are where you'll find team aircraft based.
I believe it's very much a who-you-know environment in terms of a job-offer. If you have another full-time gig, you'd do well by getting some contract work for a team, and maybe if you like it and they like you, full-time could follow.
Good luck to you!!!
