Put them to work. Bob doesn't have any feeling. He won't hate you for over working him.
 
I'm not sure that arrow really makes any difference, I've never noticed a time difference between Bob with an up arrow and Bob with a down arrow.
 
I've just been grinding with a Bob who wasn't very happy (arrow down), after 3 races he was blue arrow up.. 👍
 
My bob has won his last 100+ races, during that time his mood has been all over the place. I think it's safe to assume Bob's mood is random, and you have to take it as it comes. Apparently his mood is supposed to affect his driving although I've not noticed that personally.

I agree, I only have one bob who has run and won every race through Nurgurgrung 4 hr. I don't even look at his "mood" indicator anymore.
 
what is the mood supposed to do anyway? ive seen no effects from it

When you say ''mood'' do you mean the arrows next to him before a race (blue = up = HAPPY, green = horizontal = OK, orange = down = NOT HAPPY) or do you mean the bar at the bottom middle of the screen when you are actually in a B spec race??

Both of these are ''mood'' indicators. Supposedly, if he's unhappy, he's tired and wants a rest and you shouldn't race him, blue or green means he's OK to be used.

The arrows don't really make a difference, the bar at the bottom does make a huge difference.
 
is it confirmed "mood" indicator?

my Bob's mood is down even he just won a race --> maybe it was because he used overpowered car?

Or maybe it is indicator of his physical fitness? means, if his arrow is down and you keep send him to race, his strength bar will decrease rapidly..

I think in the help manual it refers to it as "condition"


The arrow indicators have about as much effect on performance as chassis and engine rebuild.

Hmm I take it you have yet to buy the FGT or drive a car 5000+ miles? After buying my FGT I took note of the hp after doing an oil change. Then went and bought the engine rebuild. The hp went from 915 to 936. My FGT now has 20,000+ miles on it from grinding. After every 5000 miles (maybe even less) you will see that the power figures have slipped even with clean oil. I think I have done about 4 or 5 engine rebuilds on that thing so far.

That is getting close to the cost of a new one. I plan to get a second one soon, even though my current one has 8000 miles on it.

Yeah, about the same effect as 15 HP.
