Just a quick heads up that Sunday night was the last week of the April season. If you were really that far off the pace, you'll be relegated to D2 for the May season (which starts this Sunday night).I'm done with D1. It's not worth it for me to sign on and race 3 out of 6 races alone, and spend the other 3 staring at my rear view as the other drivers run circles around me. I enjoyed all the combos...I just don't have the finesse to run those lap times with the amount of time given to prepare....and I'm just getting in the way.
Agreed. I love the more slippery combos. While they're much more frustrating when you're doing it wrong, I think it's much more satisfying when you're doing it right, as opposed to combos like the BRZ/Grand Valley and Roadster/Tsukuba, where there's so much grip you can pretty much do anything somewhat safely.
Even though the BRZ has a lot of grip, I still seem to find myself spinning on exit points. Throttle control is king but there is still chance for failure. 👍
Here are the unofficial results from our league night on April 27, 2014

Round 3 - Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 base model '13 (Race Medium tires) at Road Course - Indy (7 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @ExoSphere64 wins Prize A, they get to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.
The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - Toyota 2000GT '67 (Sport Hard tires) at Circuito di Roma (7 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @dcallnight gets Prize B, he has the option to "freeze" the car or the track, or he can give that option to the Prize C winner. If he gives the "freeze" away, then he gets to decide what car or track replaces the part of the combo that is left unfrozen by the Prize C winner.
Prize C goes to @aliengamer25 so he gets whichever option the Prize B winner does not select.
Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your car and/or track selection until all racing complaints are filed and you are given the "all clear" to announce your selection. It's also important that you review our Car/Track History so that you can see a complete history of how many times we've raced each car and track (just scroll to the right of that tab). Please remember that originality is always appreciated. Therefore, picking cars and tracks that we've never raced is a plus (but not required). Most importanty, make sure you thoroughly test any combo that you are considering before making it your official selection. For example, the car should not hit its rev limiter at any point during the race (even in the draft).
Car Selection Guidelines
Dealership Cars - The maximum price for a selected car is now $1,000,000
DLC Cars - Only DLC cars that are FREE and currently still available in the PlayStation Store can be selected.
Track Selection Guidelines
Any non-DLC track can be selected as long as a single lap with the car combo'd with it would not take more than five minutes to complete. For example, don't select anything that includes the Nurburgring's Nordschleife.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When posting your Prize A or Prize B selection, please list the complete in-game name of the car and/or track you are selecting. For example, if you want to select the Amuse Superlegara for your car, post "Amuse Nismo 380 RS Superlagara". If you want to select Monza for a track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". This makes it much easier for the lineup to be updated accurately and also prevents confusing other league members as to which car or track you are selecting.
Okay, I've corrected that. Thanks for the heads up.aliengamer25 is still not eligible for prizes as he has not been through promotion and relegation. Next in line would be BTB9195 but he is also ineligible for the same reason. This means that the third prize winner would be dabneyd.
In the past, we've "reset" the month once the last league night of the season was completed. Therefore, the first new combos of the season would also be the first prize selections of month. Let me know if you'd like to adjust it so that the "reset" doesn't happen until after the first races of the season are completed. It's your call.In addition to this, dcallnight has already won prize "C" this month (Apr. 6) so he would be locked into prize "B" this time around.
Agreed. I love the more slippery combos. While they're much more frustrating when you're doing it wrong, I think it's much more satisfying when you're doing it right, as opposed to combos like the BRZ/Grand Valley and Roadster/Tsukuba, where there's so much grip you can pretty much do anything somewhat safely.
Sure. I mean, I get it. Lots of people like the grippy cars. We vote, and that's why those combos tend to stay. I'm just stating my personal preference, that's allTrue, but if that is satisfying only for a minority, then it really is not satisfying to the majority.
I am not a strict populist, but I am not a proponent of strictly elitist, slippery/sadistic/unclean (combos) either.
A little of this, a bit of that, and a shouty car for some excellent noise. Good combos.
Having three of a kind - All shouty and slidy cars - are painfully loud. And quite messy. And expensive.
You may disagree, but.. You would be wrong.

Will there a Race Of Champions? Or did that idea die?
Will there a Race Of Champions? Or did that idea die?
@zer05ive said it was my call on when to reset multiple winners and I made it. I'm pretty sure we are good to go with exo, dcall, and dabneyd as 1,2, and 3 with dcall locked in to prize B.

Okay, sounds good. Your reasoning makes perfect sense. 👍With the advent of not allowing a driver to win prizes until they have gone through promotion and relegation (at the end of the season) I think to keep it consistent, we should reset the prizes won for the month at the same time. After all, the prize was won in the same season.
I had forgotten that we had done it that way before. It hasn't come up since we instituted the change for new drivers having to go through p and r.
Alright then, my choice is to keep the 2000gt around!

@dgaf95integra you better start running...
This somehow reminds me of Cowboy vs. Aliens. or Snailboy vs. Snailiens...
p.s. and i just realized what dgaf means.... fml....
I am completely bewildered, shocked, excited and nervous all at the same time. I have never been in the position to pick a prize before. Sometimes the privateer can surprise you! I know I won't be able to please everyone but I tried to put a combination together that had a little something for everyone. Given the new price cap, it is affordable for those that don't have a large bank roll. It is a little slow but if not respected it will bite. It is a little understeery and oversteery at the same time. It will require proper throttle control. It has grip in some areas and is a little loosey-goosey in others. It has not been used before and should make for some nice pictures. Be gentle as this is my first time!
