Rule Update 2011 #2

Rule Update 2011 #2
As mentioned in the opening rules and regulations post, the below affects the cost for the road course race drivers
Road Courses
If you wish, you may use one of your 3 allocated team changes to hire teams that contain some of the specialist Road Course “Ringers”, drivers that appear for Road Courses only. Your Team line-up must still fit inside the $1.8M salary cap. You will automatically revert to your normal Team lineup after each Road Course event, should you choose this option. Note that reverting back to your pre-road course lineup DOES NOT count as a team change ie you can do this twice – once for each Road Course, and 1 other time throughout the season.


So, again sourcing team/driver data from Jayski's website, the following will attract a premium if you change to these drivers after Michigan on the 19th of June and before the Thursday night before Sonoma, and cost as per the below list:

$1,300,00
#9 Marcos Ambrose
#14 Tony Stewart
#42 Juan Pablo Montoya

$500,000
#7 Robby Gordon
#TBA Boris Said potentially #51(formerly 09)
#TBA Sam Hornish (if he runs)

$400,000
#TBA Ron Fellows (if he runs)
#TBA Jan Magnussen (if he runs)

This list may be updated if there are further announcements by teams in the next couple of weeks.

If you have any these drivers in your team at Michigan, they will not attract the increase in price (ie if you add Ambrose to your team between now and Michigan, he will remain at $500,000. If you add Ambrose between Michigan and Sonoma he will cost $1,300,00. You can change now for safety, but then run the risk of getting less points in the races before Sonoma). DO NOT GO OVER THE SALARY CAP OF $1,800,000

If you change your team before Sonoma, this will count as one of your 3 allowable changes for the season. If you change drivers at this time, you have the option of reverting back to your original line up after Sonoma and before Daytona the following weekend, which will NOT constitute 1 of your 3 allowable changes for the season. If you do change prior to Sonoma, please let me know whether you wish to revert back to original lineup after Sonoma.

Driver costs will revert back to their original costs after Sonoma.

These scenarios will also take affect for Watkins Glen, however prices may change for other teams depending on ringers being announced and I will update accordingly.
