Please Note: All payouts listed above are subject to change without notice. Due to the magnitude of an event such as WFC, World Race Events reserves the right to decrease payouts by as much as 75 percent in case of weather or any other unknown reason that might occur at the event. World Race Events relies solely on the numbers produced by fan attendance for payouts, therefore payouts will be subject to change in case of low fan attendance due to weather or other unknown reasons. At the same time, World Race Events would like our racers to know that for the past eight years, World Race Events has paid out the entire purse without any deductions at every WFC event. As in the past, World Race Events looks forward to paying out 100 percent of the purse at WFC9. This disclaimer is used only as a precaution in case the actual event takes a turn for the worse.
