Isn't it the same as last year except for 1st place? We slower folk have to look beyond just the top line. :D

[Clarkie]

I thought last year they paid 2K for the win

Interestingly enough, the MRA has a contingency page that details the payouts, dates and classes for all manufacturers...

Here's the link to the Yamaha page from 2007.

You are both correct. It was 2K last year, but the rest remains the same.

Clarkie, you might consider re-naming your post "Yamaha reduces payout for win in 2008"

"Slashes" is pretty strong, and not at all consistent with the changes they made. Remember your contingency sponsors have free access to our forums as well- and that type of statement won't win the MRA many friends...

yeah haha i read that headline and almost made a cadberry egg in my pants. its not beyond yamaha to cut the whole program

How come the MRA is in the "C" pay scale??

How come the MRA is in the "C" pay scale??

MRA is A

Are you looking at the top where it says "AMA" ?

[giovannir6]

Whoops!

So why is the MRA in the "A" pay scale??

Thanks Mike

[hcr25]

We are a because the MRA is a regional club
The only B is WERA national and the AMA is C which is the highest payout
