I have had payouts reduced because of car count. Here that's the norm now. But I will say if anyone out thee is doing this for the money they should likely reexamine their hobby of choice. Winning money is great and all but if it the driving force and you are not a traveling pro running the big dollar stuff it's just fluff to attract people. In the heads up world ANY payout MIGHT cover travel for the weekend for the most part. Just my .02 and I am 100% sure it will ruffle feathers.
