$4,000 bonus payout for Ottertail 100!!
Posted: 1/2/2026
With the Ottertail 100 season opener just days away, we are excited to announce, with local support, that there is an additional $4,000 up for grabs to the winner of the 100-mile Pro Factory Final!!
We want to thank these companies for putting up this bonus purse:
- Lakes area dock and lift
- Pederson Farms & Seed
- DJ’s dock service
- OTC Storage
- Paul Haarstad Excavating
With the $4,000 bonus, event payout, and manufacturer contingency, it is projected to be over $7,500 for the win on Sunday, January 11!!
Today, this flyer is being sent to the local group for distribution and social media.
A question we have received for clarification is for the Team class, which states one (1) Pro rider per team. That only means if there is a Pro on the team, there can only be one; the team can be made up of any class racer (besides Jr’s), and there will be event payout plus a year-end championship for this class. The same two riders must compete together the entire season to qualify for points; no partner swaps mid-season.
Only one rider needs to select the Team class on his registration, but BOTH riders need to enter their teammates' information on their own registrations so the scoring system can connect the two racers.
Media- ALL media personnel covering the events need to head over to the website and fill out the media credentials form. This is required for anyone attending an event to take pictures, videos, etc. All accredited media will be required to wear a media vest so officials can easily identify you as approved to be in restricted areas or within proximity to the race course. This is a safety/insurance mandate, so we appreciate your support in complying with the new media policy. Click here to request media credentials
Online race registration closes Wednesday, January 7th at 6 pm, so do not wait until the last minute and get signed up today!!
