Buying rewards with "in-game" cash

Currently you earn rewards for racing and you get them if you pay for subscriptions or "top-up" using actual cash.

I've been really careful with my "in-game" cash and I've got quite a bit to spare at the minute, but I literally can't spend it on anything.

It would be great if I could increase morale on the team/of the staff, i.e. send them all on a team building exercise. Increase my drivers health back to 100% by sending them on a weekend of physical therapy. Pay to assist in the development of one of my "partrners" and therefore increase the effective of whatever they offer, e.g. help the engine supplier and get an extra amount out of the "performance". I'm sure there's many more others can think of.

I've got about 17 races before I reach level 8 and can buy the test rig and wind tunnel and when that happens I won't even use half the cash I've got. By that point I reckon I'll have earnt about enough to pay for them again! Daft that I've got this money, but can't use it.

I'm in a similar position where I have a huge amount of cash and all of the facilities so my expenditure each race is just my car upgrades and copying other teams' designs. Each race I'm still pulling ahead by a couple of million despite the expenditures. 

The options you've mentioned would be great to see. 

There has been a lot of discussion about this aspect of the game and it is good that it is still being discussed.

I think as the game progesses more items will be added that can be 'bought' as well as rewards etc.
ATM the good managers do make lots of money but the poorer managers are struggling at times, so it is a difficult balance.

I do agree that it needs some 'tweaking' and all suggestions considered.

I would like to offer a suggestion for the reward system as winning races and podiums only give us 1 reward point same as everyone. I think podium winners should get more because they did manage their car and driver a bit better (In our league it is very close). For exmaple, Winner get 3 additional points, second get 2 and third get an additional 1. I know there is the issue of creating leagues, so that a player can have a 2 car team in his own league and collect reward points but it can be resolved by limiting the rewards by the number of cars in the league or something. Like it should have points rewarded for if there is a minimum amount teams in the league. 

Also about championship finishing position, we should get some kind of reward for finishing in the top 10 or something, Like in game money and stuff. And again to prevent exploitation, it should have a minimum number of teams in the league.

Also a trophy cabinet could be put in place in the manager tab or team tab. Just to show off :P but will be great to see these trophies we win at every races.

What do you guys think of this?

I love that idea - some 'visible' reward to aim for.

Chris - Remember the new design system is going to cost a ton more money so the more you have now, the better off you are actually going to be when this comes out.

Thanks for the update. When will the new design system be coming in?

When Andrew fixes the beta simulator, and then when the testing is done and Jack, Andrew and the beta crew (Yes I just named us), are happy and not whining about 12 hour long races.
