Non-Signups

Non-Signups are drivers that really existed in NASCAR that drove in the ShopRite Series. They are temporary fill-ins for the signups until they sign up, but on rare occasions, they can compete for a full season.
== Non-Signup Rules ==
* Non-Signups are only put in cars if a car isn't signed on by the deadline (Tropicana 400).
* The driver will always be the driver that drove that numbered car in the season (For example, Jeff Green was the 30 car in 2003)
* Non-Signups are immediately replaced once a sign-up is put into the roster.
* If the driver races a full season and their car still isn't signed the following year and the real life driver switches, the non-signup switches.
* Non-Signups can compete for a championship if they drive the full season.
== Notable Non-Signups ==
* Bobby Labonte (first 4 races of 2003): Started off season with a 2nd in the Daytona 500 before having the then-record for most laps led in a race he would win, leading 75 of 79 laps to win the Subway 400. He followed that up with another win at Las Vegas before crashing out at Atlanta and led the championship. He was replaced by Christopher Able starting at race 5 of 2003 and has since got eight wins and a championship in 2004. Labonte still has the record for best career average finish at 6.5.
* Kurt Busch (first 8 races of 2003): Was inconsistent in the beginning of the season before stealing his first two wins at Darlington and Bristol. He followed that up with a record third straight win at Texas and finished 17th at Talladega before he was replaced by Eric Drew in race 9 of 2003 and has since amassed ten wins.
* Ricky Craven (2003): Quiet driver with speed in 2003. Holds the now tied record as highest finishing Non-Signup in points following a season's end, as he finished 11th in the standings. After a good performance to the season, he was replaced by Winford Bradford Rutherford for the 2004 season as the 32 car was bought for Carrison Motorsports, who has since gotten two victories.
* Johnny Sauter (2004): In his rookie season, was allowed to drive full season and got his first win early on at Fontana and was slightly inconsistent, but was remembered for his intentional wreck on Aaron Able that led to a one-race suspension, but came back to dominate a win in the Southern 500 and later on a win at Phoenix. He finished 11th in the standings.
