◆ SNAIL [DriveTrain Challenge - DTC] Racing - Closed

[Nicktune]

Wow. I thought running every lap at Tsukuba within 1 second was consistent. That is a whole different level. Congrats on the win. Did you let me know what track you want qualifying to be on Monday?

We could slowly start the night at Tsukuba.

Hang on. Sorry joby, some of those were prize cars. I have to re-do my list. MyGt has the WRX at 453 like it was in my garage, but I can still change the oil and bump it 460, so my list will be changing...

No problem. Getting a valid PP list is a high priority for us. For now do the best you can. We can always just dock you some points later if you win While I will not be making the start tonight I hope to be able to make the last race or two. Does that mean I get 1600pp for 2 cars

I will just have to bite the bullet on one race, I have plenty of FF cars but non that are in the completely broken in without weight reductions or engine upgrades.

Sorry about the late switch, also is the host sending invites?

 

[Starvsnr]

Just now realized I replaced a MR with an FF. I cannot find the lobby & haven't heard back on a friend request., sorry boys I will try for next time.

2002 turbo 394
tf160 384
150 ram 416

after to many discos I'm callin it quits tonight. Still had fun!

 

[tezgm99]

Ok, the Alfa was a rubbish choice, but it made a fantastic distraction to the driver behind with all the smoke pouring off the wheels

Star, sorry tonight did not work. I will figure out what went wrong and make sure it is all sorted for next time.

No worries, to be fair I really wasn't prepared. This will give me time to break in some cars for the next event.

Star,

I went back and checked and I did send a Friend Request on the 24th from the SNAIL_Division3 account to the PSN id starvsnr. Next time you log in to the PS3 check you messages and let me know if you received that.

 

[88GTA]

Where is Saturday's qualifying race?

 

[Rallywagon]

Thanks for the races last night fellas. Those first two were great for me, my last two were flops though. I like the setup though. It's nice to have lots of different cars competing on track.

 

[jobyone]

I want to thank everyone for coming out to last nights event especially JoeW for being the Race Director and Host. It seems people are continuing to enjoy the series even if sometimes car choices don't work out as planned. I would love to get lap times and data from last nights races so if anyone has replays and can upload them to Sugarsync that would be awesome.

A few administration issues.
1. Nick as the winner you can adjust the PP level for next Mondays Race. You can keep it the same or adjust it +/- 25 pts (we may increase this range later but for now lets try starting small). You also still get to pick the qualifying track for this Saturdays event.
2. As Runner up Joe you can pick the Qualifying track for next Mondays event.

If we could get these in the next 24 hours that would be awesome.

A few questions
1. Are people enjoying having more tracks to pick? If so should we add another set and what would some suggestions be?
2. The "Nick" rule. First let me say congrats to Nick for not only picking a great lineup but also driving brilliantly for a second night in a row. That being said do we think we should force the wining driver to change his lineup? Or do you think the PP adjustment will start to give others a chance to catch up?

 

[88GTA]

I think everyone should have to change at least one car. It makes it more fun anyway.

I was shocked seeing how many cars I barely drove when looking at my garage yesterday. This series is making me try new cars all the time.

I agree with this, I think if we all are forced to change at least 1 cat it will keep things very fun.

Just having to change 1 car may mean that you end up with a completely different line up.

The main point is that everyone is enjoying the races and having fun.


I would also like to propose that we give 'bonus' points for running 'all american set up' All 'European'; something like that.

 

[IceWarden]

I choose Twin Ring Motegi as the qualifying track next Monday.

The front page states 13 laps at Daytona....so I didn't screw up
