It IS the same as last year (same guy running it)....in the past Pro class has been $2000 to win, with less entry fee. But now, and I'm pretty sure this was all discussed last year, S/P, Pro AND Sportsman all pay out the same. No matter how many cars...great deal for Sportsman...I just hope they appreciate the Pro class helping their payout. I liked it when a class was rewarded for bringing the most cars to the event and having a better payout, OR having less entry fee for the same payout. (few years back, S/P and Pro had same payout but S/P had a slightly higher entry fee because they had less cars)
