I didn't realize over a $1200 worth of prizes was nothing. I guess you learn something new everyday.
Do you think dungey win a gift card when he win something? No he win real money from entry.

I give 25$ for race and i have no chance to see my 25$ comeback even if i win the championship. It's a fraud

I got a couple questions, not sure if they were answered already cuz I just woke up.
When do we get Hangtown?
Does the license system match SX? (A license to ride 250s and PRO license for 450s)

To be honest in my opinion it's a great idea for the whole membership idea to keep all the idiots away and keep the racing more clean
Good luck to everyone this year

Still kinda wishing there was B and C classes in AMs.. I'd be more likely to pay when I didn't have a chance of getting nuked by half the field that can manage 1 good lap to qualify... but I digress. If I can get every Sunday off, I'll pay. If not, I'll ride the tracks in August

So many pages of nothing but talking about the pay to race. Its going to happen so why argue about it? Nobody really cares if you're going to race or not because of it. Would be nice to move on to other topics in this thread.

You either ride in Pro or AM. So if you sign up for pro for the year, you cannot race am's.

  • RF to pay fees, as I mentioned above
  • Website administrators - It takes time and effort to maintain, develop and run a website.
  • Track builders - Making tracks this high quality takes an immense amount of time, paying this is more or less a steal considering the time everyone puts in.
  • Hosters - People have to host the event(s). Takes time to set up, prepare etc.
  • Livestream - Livestreaming does at least take as long as the event itself. Also it is not the most fun to do, if you run into the case that there are no battles on the track. I promise you that having 25m to go is not fun then.
  • Referee/Judges - Reviewing protests and discussing them takes time too.
And nothing for riders who pay to race, what a nice logic lol.
Because you would rather have 10$ cash for the winner than a 300$ gift card, for an actually useful store? It's not like you get a giftcard for "Bertha's Flowers". You can almost get a GTX970 for $300, I'd be more than excited about that. Also having them covering 1st-10th in Pro's + 1st-5th in AM's, I can't say that I'm sad about those prices. Giving stuff to 30 different riders is more than sufficient IMO. Also who's to say that they haven't planned to keeping track of holeshots or something? The more thankful we are, the bigger the chance are of us getting more amazing stuff.

I'm pretty sure I can get everybody but the guys who are gonna do it to agree with me but. Can we get a rule that if you have won a 450 race in supercross or outdoors that you can not drop to 250s? I consider myself as an ok rider but I don't want to be battling for 20th cause the top 5 or so pros are gonna drop down. Not saying the money is a problem but if I'm going to pay $25 I don't want to have guys like root in the 250 class.

Send me the Olive Garden card and I will put $8 towards your entry fee. Thanks.

Matthew, thank you for the question. Outdoors automatically qualifies the top 36 for the motos from timed qualifying. The last 4 spots are decided by a 40 rider consolation race prior to the motos. This means 76 total riders compete per class at each round. It'll be very rare, especially with the membership system, that you wouldn't see a gate drop.

For those asking where the money is going and why it is not going to racers:
Donations will be distributed throughout the rF Gaming hosts, track creators, referees, web programmers, livestreamers, etc. to help sustain a high quality racing series for the summer.
