If you are right (cheating issue), that's a poor development solution. Every sport game lets you change stats locally, BUT tries to balance things out online by forcing everyone to use the 'official DB'.
The problem with TDF is there's no online mode, so the only way to compete online is with this money collecting thing. IMHO, I hate global rankings and so, and never take care of them (there are always ways for cheating). No online? That's fine, I can live with that, but I don't see why we cannot modify stats for improving local experience. It would be very easy to disable online rankings if you modify your stats.
By the way, the data update should be free, but that's a different thing...
