How about the creators, the sponsors, etc. It's not easy to go bust out Supercross Tracks, then to go and bust out National Tracks not to mention replica style tracks, and on top of that some of them have families to raise, jobs to attend, you may not know this yet but it's called the "real life". I don't wan't to go on ranting but like I said man just take a minute and have some respect. These guys have been busting out tracks and hosting replica series for a long time and up until now they haven't charged I don't recall any Supercross or National Series. They deserve it for the hard work and time that goes into these series. Rant over.
Well said David. The guys at rF are older, married, grown ass men spending countless hours trying to provide racing for selfish young kids taking advantage of the content given to them for years now. I will gladly pay the $25 donation and have fun all summer long racing the incredible tracks these guys are putting their heart and soul into.

I will double post and be sure to include that 90% of the people racing rF are NOT young selfish kids, but the ones complaining sure do seem to look like young selfish kids.

Great idea!
This will get some of the worst whiners and punters out of the races hopefully :P.

I´ll support this idea and pay 25$ just for the tracks ever tho I´m not racing any.

25$ for 12 top level track (29 if you count the SX) and personally overlooked and controlled event AND streamed events is in my book a BARGAIN.

What other game do you have that?

Good luck and looking forward to it!

Honestly I respect what everyone at racefactory have done over the years but what was a series that people signed up for and raced for fun with there mates has now gone to pay to race etc but there is next to no reassurance on to what happens someone who pays $25 could have a computer malfunction or the tracks might not be able to run on there PC, where is all the money going? Just to people like yourself who I have barely thought you had ANYTHING to do with hosting yes you make the tracks from time to time but honestly if this is the way you want to go about it so be it, when other people do there stuff for free and "show you up" don't have a bitch or a whine because your ignorance got you there in the first place, if I recall the 450 class wasn't even getting 40 riders at one point this supercross season so why make people pay to race it? Honeslty I would like to see a well written answer to my argument because roasting someone when they stand up and say something is wrong ain't fucking cool, also what about your buddies do they get free membership because they are your buddies? I fucking hope not.
To the last part of what you said. I made the video for the hype of the series. They came to me, and asked for it. I STILL paid for my entry. So no, they aren't just giving people they know free passes.
Honestly with a comment like that, I just hope guys like mack | spokes go away.
Idk if you thought my comment was being rude, or not. I would have still paid either way if they offered me a free submission, because I respect what they do.

You only have to pay if you want to race the tracks during the rf season.

Devin I realise they are grown men. I'm a selfish kid now? look at it this way, would you charge your grand Ma $25 to host Christmas? Also currency, money is the big key here if it was $5 I would have payed that for sure but $25 U.S. When converted to aud is $32 which in my eyes is a bit over priced. Every time I have shown up to a rf event it has been well organised and a very good experience, I'm happy to pay the price if it's a couple bucks cheaper, about the real life shit what's your problem dude? You've never talked to me face to face, I could be abused every night and you cunts wouldn't know about it.

Ever heard of a lemonade stand, used to do tons of those as a kid. Great way to make some cash. No but for real man, if you don't want to pay the set price, that's fine. You won't be able to race. Complaining about it and dragging it on is not going to change the minds of the people involved. Without them and without hosts like rF this game would be quite boring if you ask me. Plus you got now until next week to come up with 32$, I'm sure if you have enough time to play this game, you have time and ways to get 32$ if you really want to compete this season.

Not even close to the same thing.

I understand the currency difference sucking (paid $33.5 CAD) but even then that's not even $3 per track which has 20+ hours put into it being split between around 6 people

I don't see how this is relevant.

well for me paying $33 dollars for a series i can only race maybe two events, i want all the tracks so i can ride them when they are tracks that are current and everyone are playing around on, maybe a three race pass or a six race pass might be a good option but this will be hard to do.

Have you considered that Aussies are not the target for the series? The complaints that you have are because this is hosted at a certain time that is convenient to North Americans and if Aussies want to join up they shouldn't have to accommodate you.

Checkz, are 25 $1 dollar bills that smell like booty sweat with a dash of cocaine residue sufficient payment? My mom won't let me use her credit card and I only have $17.50 left on my Olive Garden gift card which you probably won't want?
