Holy smokes, that's awesome!! (and he's #5 too!!)

I predict many, many, many "Turbo" toys will be purchased in my household.. :dopey:

It looks like Dreamworks is already planning a TV series to follow the movie as well.

His obsession with speed and all things fast has made him an oddity and outsider in the slow and cautious snail community.. :lol:
 
Sorry, Div 5, I won't be able to race Sunday night, unless my resident Nurse Cratchet gives me back the PS3. Had an angiogram yesterday and the Dr said ...... no driving .... and she is taking that literally, in all respects.
Was really looking forward to the Capp races - finally had a combo that was giving me good success. Oh well, live to race another day.

Man, you should tell her that racing is therapy! Hope you are back racing soon. And yes you did very well with the Capp on Wednesday practice.

Good runs in D1, Skills, Danger, DJones & Driftin.

Dude, we've given you all the information, numerous times. You need to read what we're saying. Maybe we're having a language issue?

As wolfsatz replied, run the time trial and pm me your time.

I'd like to participate, got an invitation from SNAIL_SpecRacing to my psn acct nom876

Hey tickaz,

Thanks for your interest! We are always happy to have drivers who race clean. Here's what you need to know and do in order to join:

We run a clean league by enforcing a strict penalty system based on the S.N.A.I.L. OLR (which is a modified version of the GTP OLR). We also expect all of our drivers to know and follow The Good Racecraft Guide.
Please become versed in both if you aren't already. Once that is complete, please follow the steps below to complete your entry into the league:

1. You run the Time Trial. (NOTE: The tires selected for this have more grip than our current tire regulations allow, but please follow the directions exactly anyways).
2. You PM kcheeb with your time from the time trial (no Sunday racing until this is completed).
3. We assign you to the division that we feel will give you the closest competition.
4. We send you a you a PSN friend request from the corresponding SNAIL_Division1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 account. That PSN account's lounge is where you will race on Sunday night.
6. You drive fast and clean on Sunday 👍

The original post has everything you need to know about what to expect on Sunday night and what you will need to have completed in order to be competitive. If you have any questions, please feel free to post your question on the thread.

Please note that we often race DLC from three add-on packs:

Racing Car Pack
Course Pack
Twin Ring Motegi Pack

If you don't have these add-on packs, you will need to sit out the races in which they are used.

If you have a preference for car/wheel colour and racing number, post your choices in this thread.
To avoid duplication, the currently claimed combinations can be found here.

During the week we run a number of different events, we encourage all SNAILs to join as many as possible.

Welcome to S.N.A.I.L. :cheers:

As promised STaTS - SNAIL's Team and Tuning Series (season VI) details are posted: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=8102850&posted=1#post8102850

This season will be the battle of the GT 86, BRZ, and FR-S.

For those of you who would like to try this series and can't get a tuner one change this season is there will be a generic tune posted for anyone to use. Just grab a team mate and come have fun.

One thing that makes this series unique is the ballasting that we do where if you win a race you get weight added to your car. This makes it so whatever skill level you're at you have a chance at winning races. So come on over and sign up. First race is next Friday.

This is going to be a lot of fun, some great cars and great racing.

Come on S.N.A.I.L.s, let's fill this grid up 👍

Plot: "Turbo is a snail who dreams of being the greatest racer in the world"

Perfect.
Click to expand...

It gets even better:

From the makers of Madagascar and Kung Fu Panda, Turbo is a high-velocity 3D comedy about an underdog snail who kicks into overdrive when he miraculously attains the power of super-speed. But after making fast friends with a crew of streetwise, tricked-out es-car-goes, Turbo learns that no one succeeds on their own. So he puts his heart and shell on the line to help his pals achieve their dreams, before Turbo-charging his own impossible dream: winning the Indy 500.
