Just going to announce I will be running as an indy in a Pepsi Support Team for the season, I'll be running the #77 truck if you'd forgotten :)
 
After a helpful realisation from Carb I will now be #20.

Don't forget the 6 truck team.:lol:
 
Yep :P RPM and Pepsi have a 4 man team with no reserve, Mobil, 4 man team with 1 reserve, and Team Extreme C'N'T have a 4 man team with an army of reserves :P
 
In all reality Team Extreme & Cut N' Trim are like Red Bull to Toro Rosso.
 
The 3 power teams are definitely trying to hire each and every man they can have.

However, Pepsi is always one step ahead. ;)

Why not just make 4-truck teams official? It's a ridiculous notion to say teams are limited to three trucks, then list a fourth "independent" driver as a support driver. What are they racing for, other than themselves? How does it benefit their team if they are racing for wins? Think about that logic... smuffy and spurgy are team support drivers, which means they are supposed to help their flagship team. But, the best way to help their team is to push them around, and not finish ahead of them. What are smuffy and spurgy racing for then? What is in the best interest of one is never in the best interest of the other.

So, it's either 4-truck teams, or split it up so that all teams are 2-truck teams, where only the one highest scorer per team per race earns team points. Right now, the teams can all be split up nicely into two truck teams.

I see your point there Drop, seeing as almost everyone has a 4-truck team, why not just let people have 4-trucks teams. As far as me not being able to race for wins, Furi will tell you, winning is my first aim, helping my team along the way is a bonus :)

Wouldn't it be better if your winning efforts could help your team (whether 2 or 4 total trucks) win a championship?

I agree, with the 2 car teams, we could also have a "Manufacturers Championship".
(Pepsi vs RPM vs Cut n Trim)
Also team championships between the 2 car teams
Also individual championship.
 
I think 4 car teams then would be best option? Then its the superpowers against each other pretty much.

Made the needed addition over there, Red ;)
 
So with 4 car teams and a host of reserves I declare sign ups closed.
