| Re: Motogp Fantasy racing Im set up... First time doing a Fantasy sports thing. Im guessing we get points after the first race, based on our picks. Do we need any money left after our picks? I have no budget left, so I hope I dont need gas or anything...

Chris | Yep...get points based on the points schedule in the rules....this then correlates to an amount of money that's added to your budget....which you can use to upgrade.... |

I got 2nd out of 500 teams when fastasy-500gp was going (they are only doing Ducati Cup now). The key to these things is diversification. Pick a bike, riders, and a team that has a chance. Don't get 1 expensive thing and chinze on the rest. A lot of this is luck too, if your guy crashes out you don't get diddly. I remember one race that Ukawa crashed, and that was end all for me getting the #1 spot, I was pissed  |
