You have to run two weeks in a row to change in value!! Bill will stay the same in value for next week!!!
well I guess that solved some curiousity I have had.. but how do you know that... I can't find it.... if he isn't running... why is he not minumim....
like G bodine should be equal value to B elliot.. about same amount of races..
Wheelie.............The drivers used to change in value when they came in to run just an occasional race, but the problem with that is that they would always go down in value because their last race was scored as a last place finish. Not many people would pick them and this also affected the drivers scores who missed a race for whatever the reason. It was decided to keep the values the same for the drivers who didn't run races on a regular basis. If they run two races in a row then their scores are based on their performance.
I think it says somewhere that Dave has the option to pick a value for a specific driver if he deems it in the best interest of the game. It used to be that a driver who came in as a sub or ran the specialty races was listed at 350,000. A problem arose when Kevin Harvick came in to replace Dale Earnhardt and ran almost the entire 1st half of the year at 350,000 plus increases. Everyone had Kevin on their team and picked the other 7 drivers. Dave decided to have the option to pick a value for a driver that would fit his team and abilities. I agree Bill Elliott is about where he should be in value but Geoffs value isn't where it should be. If you read the rules 350,000 is as low as the values can go. Gosh hope I got this right!!!
