I'm signed up. I tried to do the SBK world superbike fantasy last year, but everytime I tried to set up my team the site would not let me. Hopefully this year goes better.

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...

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....

Not! Rossi and the Yamerhaw cost too much. My team doesn't consist of either. 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
