◆ SNAIL [GT1 Championship] Series

[Die_Birdy_Die]

I would imagine that out of 46 passes thru that corner, expect to have crossed the White Line with all 4 wheels at least 6 times. Haven't watched the Replay as yet - but will take some time this afternoon to Tally my errors at Becketts.
Still had a good time - no matter what the penalties might be. Probably earned every one of them.

Enjoy your Thursday, it's the only one y'all will get this week.

Enjoy my thursday... I'm stewarding I hate stewarding watched top 4 so far and they've all gotten 6 points so far

hopefully they wont have 50 s2k's or miatas or rx7's

 

[Jakedog23]

All I know is the all cars are completly redesigned for the PS4 and have interiors. Makes me happy

 

[pinki_19123]

thats nice haha. but still. whats the point in having the same car in 50 different configs when all it really changes is where the driver is sitting (such as the s2k (j) package vs the (na) package)

 

[Jakedog23]

Your telling me. And honestly I have only seen one Mazda Miata in the preview and no S2k

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

don't we get a chance to self file ir's?

You do and the self file will be cut in half. Do you think that you didn't go out of bounds 12 times?

 

[Jakedog23]

I can't get to my PS3 to check how many time but I am sure it was a few times.

 

[pinki_19123]

the s2k is definitely gonna be in there though. it's too popular of a car to not be in there
i'm looking foward to the new cars though. i'm hoping the Hennessy will be in there

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

I can't get to my PS3 to check how many time but I am sure it was a few times.

I got to 6 just on beckett's by lap 8 for you.

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

Jake for you!

 

[Whitey093]

I didn't ever intend to swing wide at beckett but I'm positive I crossed via understeer a few times. I'll have to review tonight to see if I lifted each time, I know a lifted a few times on egregious errors just to stay on track.

I'm looking at intent whitey. If you drifted wide and stayed in your arch to get back on track I'm not dinging you (which so far you did a lot of) I'm after people who drove off beckett's outside the white line. I'm not as harsh as sunday nights I don't believe in only black and white. I believe in intent I know this is a long 50 minute race.

So far most people either started not caring (my words make it nice if you wish) or started doing what the monkey in front of them was doing (again make it nice if you wish). So far the slow guys were the clean ones (you and me). I will do a full write up after I am done reviewing this last racer. (you)

To be honest to stick to hard snail (cross the line and your penalised) everyone would get penalised and I would have to look at every lap and ding every instance separately. I'm not doing that I'm only dinging 6.

Anybody who wants to review my race please do.

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

Ok so beckett's: I have watched all 10 drivers take beckett lap after lap everyone but whitey and myself took beckett's illegally. (see above for my explanation of illegal) To follow is the driver and the lap at which I stopped watching that driver after they got to 6 OB's.

Whitey: full race
Birdy: full race
JCH: lap 41
Champ: lap 39
Xrad: lap 29
Thor: lap 26
Chloe: lap 18
Scorp: lap 14
Tex: lap 14
Jake:lap 8

This is not acceptable the track is the track and I don't want to be doing IR's I want to race and race clean. Lets clean it up boys!

To be clear I only focused on Beckett's and nothing else. If you wish to file a different IR they are still out there.

 

[thorracing]

Ok so lets be perfect!

what is the start time?

I like, you defiantly and without question would wait 15 minutes for coach or anyone that has not normally had connection issues.

As for others that continually have the same connection issues, a 30 minute deadline should be set.

I really enjoy this set schedule as it is completed near my bed time, an hour later really mocks me up!

Silverstone National - The white line that crosses the track just before the "back straight" is to be ignored. As always, cones, pilons, and brake markers are not to be contacted.

Birdy, have you just been messing with us?

No sir I am not. I haven't put in the penalties yet. I was waiting to see if anyone was protesting. I'm not sure what bowler was talking about in that post but the track limit is the white line before the cones that extends breaks and then continues after that minor rumble strip. Here is a proper lap of silverstone I found online

When anyone took that shortcut they gain 3 Mph over a proper lap that they did.
Also that is for Silverstone national not international

 

[JCH8r]

Have you guys watched the video of the GT Sport reveal? During the races, they needed much stronger rules and discipline. Kaz apologized afterwards and said they should have given them more time to practice.

It would be great if SNAIL rules could somehow be incorporated into the game. They did show a flagging system so that's encouraging. So, I'm okay with the penalties. We gotta be kept honest. You know, now that I think of it, 2 cars got stuck in the pits. I wonder if they were black flagged.

Hey That's nearly my run, as far as shift point, brake and throttle!

That refers to a line that goes across the track and is really the line for a different layout than the National version.

 

[Xradkins]

I am sorry but I don't get the need for penalties that are equal. Only advantage goes to the drivers that did not go out. Why can't you penalize based on number of infractions? Some are totally disrespecting this rule. Do it justice.

I didn't think so many had cut that corner. I figured most would get only 2 or 3. To see that all but 2 had broken the track boundary six times with a field full of snails blew my mind!

It is meant to be a warning to all, that people are watching and being against snail rules will lead to penalties.

I think next time I see flagrant disrespect for track boundaries like that there will be no max and people will be penalised for every infraction. However speaking on that I had already stated up to a maximum of six points and stuck by my word.

Birdie is pointing out that we are losing our way and trying to bring attention to it. This does not preclude you from filing IR's personally. I have not had the time to review and don't feel like my finishing position was affected so I'm leaving it alone but I feel like we should all always strive to follow the rules to the best of our abilities so I support birdies position.

 

[JCH8r]

Checked my replays.

 

[Jakedog23]

Hey so what is the lap time i need to shoot for at Brands Hatch?
