Only one person has ANY chance of walking away from that race with a couple grand, and those POSSIBLE winners are already cast in stone. That's a given.
Entering this race with the idea of winning that kind of money is foolish. few hundred would be the best you can hope for. SO WHAT, in a race that cost 5000+ to run. So you win drinking money for after the race, Whoopie!
However, TWICE I have won the championship AT THAT RACE! So have others. In fact this year is the ONLY year that the championship was pretty well decided before the enduro. Every year since the enduro paid points, the championship was decided at the enduro.
