Nitro race payouts

Have the payouts for the nitro races changed? What used to be fairly good payouts($3,000-$6,000) seem to be much less now($2,000 or less) for the same races. These were the only useful and enjoyable events in the campaign. No longer worth the effort. Fortunately I currently have a fair supply of race skips, which I usually only use for races paying less than $2,000. Game continues to degrade and disappoint.

    As you progress in the Campaign the payouts get higher. In the highest levels of the Campaign you often get $15,000 and $20,000 payouts.

    I have finished the Campaign long ago and am now working on systematically maxing my cars. I have too many components and often have to sell for scrap in order not to hit the 750 components limit. What I do need is game money. A LOT OF IT! So I can install components to max my cars. And in order to do so I just re-run the last race in each chapter in order to get maximum $, which as I said is often $10,000, $12,000, $15,000 or $20,000.

    What level are you in the Campaign?
