The prize money thing has always been a big battle but we all have to face facts & that is it takes money to pay money. If there are more women racing the the pro womens prize cash would be equal. the other angle is with less women in the pro class competing it increases the odds for each woman to potentially win prize money so over the season the money earned can in some cases become equal to the men who have often 3-4 times the competition in their event. If that doesn't clear things up then how about we all work together to find a sponsor for additional prize money for the women (how about LUNA BAR or another female specific product?)
