Haven't been able to find anything about this in the thread...
I'm wondering how much folks have been able to extort race organizers for when they ask a particular ride to participate in their race. I've just started a Slipstream career, and Danielson has been asked to participate in Qatar... the amount starts at $2000...
any thoughts? Does it depend on the race and the quality of the rider? |

I've always wondered the same thing. I usually hold the plus button until I feel like stopping. They still usually accept it. You prabaly ban go above 10,000.

i start at 10000, if they refuse i restart and then lower the price until is right
you can't say that is cheating, because they don't let me negociate

I never try it, because my riders always get pissed at me no matter who I tell |

you can refuse to say anything, that way they won't be on low morale

Well, first of all, I'd never let riders participate in a race unless it was planned from the beginning  |
