Obviously this was just out of curiosity basing it off an motocross action magazine article, nobody actually made any money based on results.

You must have soooo much spare time haha
Pretty cool though.

Byron's 100k Factory bonus is a little light for these days
But this is really cool good job

Jlv you need to implement this to the main series. It would bring some customers I think...

[Ddavis]

It puts into perspective though for real life guys with seasons like me that are sitting 7th in points in 250 East with a top 10 and top 10 in 450 class (I want to say that's equivalent to like a Jake Canada), and I've only made $5,890 from bonuses. Pretty sad.

250 East with a top 5*

[Craig]

Ill gladly take my 17k now rF
Thanks

Dont forget that you get $100k for every 450 main event win


im assuming this doesnt factor in the feld bonus at the end of the year?

I cant wait for that 10k bonus FELD championship payout.

Plus im getting payed 100k a year from 180 decals

S, i have $25,555 from main event wins

+ another $3,445 from my LCQ finishes.

And if i finish 13th in the 450 points ill get a $10,815 Feld bonus,

So that brings my grand total to: $139,815.

Not bad for finishing 13th in the 450 championship (with 2 rounds to go.)


btw, byron, tysen, dennis, jesse would all have multi million dollar salaries

[Burkeen820]

21k i'll take it!! Better than the $500 per race I'll get if I get 20th at a real life national

[Ddavis]

You make more money finishing 22nd in 450s than 3rd in 250 class based on payout...

[mxsrider96]

You make more money finishing 22nd in 450s than 3rd in 250 class based on payout...

I'd say this would justify 250 guys getting half point in the GNC...

[Ddavis]

Yes because the skill level in MX Simulator is comparable to the AMA payout.
