The crowd changes the size of the prize.
Every rider entry fee goes back out as prize money — one hundred percent of it. Sponsors add boosters on top. And a share of every ticket sold goes in as well, which means the size of the crowd sets the size of the prize.
Riders pay a single grounds fee for the weekend. That fee covers the office, the timers, the ground and the officials. It never enters a pot.
Each class pays its own places.
| Class | Funded by | Pot |
|---|---|---|
| Open | 100% of entry fees · sponsor boosters · sponsor floor · 20% of the gate | [Pending: entries, entry fee, gate proceeds] |
| Ladies | 100% of entry fees · sponsor boosters | [Pending: entries, entry fee] |
| U18 | 100% of entry fees · sponsor boosters | [Pending: entries, entry fee] |
| U12 | 100% of entry fees · sponsor boosters | [Pending: entries, entry fee] |
Money rounds down to the nearest dollar. It is never rounded up.

Rider referral codes
Every entrant gets a code and a link. Tickets bought through it are attributed to that rider, and the rider can see what their own share of the crowd put into the pot.
Codes are issued with entries. Ticketing is not connected yet, so no sale has been attributed to anybody.
