    Are all 59 events paying into the total season prize pool? Remember, D1's payouts were based on having 100 drivers show up at every drivers search, adding an extra $10,000 to the prize pool for each event. If there's only 20 drivers at each drivers search prior to the event, then the overall prize pool will be under $10,000 for each City, not $17,500 as previously released (and written into the rule book).

    Smoke and mirrors?

      The other thread mentions 280 drivers... if they were FORCED to go through the day-of drivers search, that would be $28,000 towards the total purse. If they don't.... then winning 3rd or 4th place will barely buy a steak dinner for the driver and their crew!

        Nut Swinger

        Oh man I see this guy everywhere just goin' off on D1 in just about every news story that comes out about them. It is pretty obvious this guy is a FD nut swinger. Anyway to answer this guys question because he is obviously not bright enough to understand, D1 Underground has nothing to do with D1GP. These are separate events run by other promoters. They declare themselves D1 Underground events and this makes them a scout in a sense. Drivers then declatre themselves as D1 Underground drivers and the driver and the promoter connect. Drivers who compete and then place at D1 underground events then move into the Pro Qualifying rounds at D1GP if their car is to spec.

        OK, so the actual entries in D1GP events are totalled. So if there is 100 drivers who register to qualify at $100 that is $10,000. Anyone who moves on to the Championship Points Series rounds held the following day then pay $250 and that will be a total of 30 drivers which amounts to $7,500. So the total from the event registrations is $17,500. This get's cut in half so $8,750 becomes the prize purse for that event. The other $8,750 goes towards the Championship Points Series prize purse that will in this scenario become $35,000. D1GP guarantees the $7,500 per event at a minimum. This prize purse can grow if sponsors put in money for contingency, so there is really no end to how big this can be.

        Could the number of entries be less? Yes and they probably will be as 100 seems pretty agressive, but in the end if only half (50) come out then D1GP still guarantees $7,500 for the event. The Championship Prize Purse is also guaranteed at $7,500 per event and then again, it could go up from there. D1 Underground events have nothing to do with it.

          all 59 events are not paying into the pot.

          i must say, the d1 underground series has brought alot of interest into drifting in our neck of the woods, and really gotten our drivers excited. i'm gracious to d1 for doing all this so far. obviously this is just beginning, but so far so good. thanks d1.

          just relax and let them do their thing. see where the cards fall when things are said and done.

            yeah I thin k it's cool what they are doing with underground. Our local drift organizers. Drift Enterprise have the one set up her in utah in April.
            I probably won't make it because money is tight and I have an event in March I'm going to, and all aside, I'm still pretty new to this, so I'm not sure I'd get anywhere. especially with running a different car this year.

              Stop the hate. FD hasn't come up with more creative ideas either recently.

                FD's prize purse isn't based on driver entries into a drivers search. It's guaranteed at the start of the year. And they pay to 8 places at every event.
