Speedway officials today announced the 36th annual Kings Royal will pay

Renown for the most unique victory lane in all of motorsports, filled
with pomp and circumstance surrounding the post-race crowning of the
“King,” the winner’s purse has remained steadfast at $50,000 since the
inaugural Kings Royal in 1984.
With today’s announcement, the posted awards for the week, including
point fund contributions and specialty awards, bring the 2019 Kings
Royal Weekend purse to $594,275. A massive increase from just a few
years ago when the purse monies stretched to $181,000.
In keeping with the theme of ‘To the Victor Goes the Spoils,’ the prize
money for second place will remain at $20,000.
The 2019 edition of Kings Royal Weekend actually kicks off on
Wednesday, July 17 with the re-scheduled World of Outlaws NOS Energy
Drink Series and USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Cars “#LetsRaceTwo
Doubleheader” that was interrupted by rain on Saturday, May 11. The
#LetsRaceTwo event will be restarted in its entirety.
