With the club option in the new game update, will a club be created for the Miata series?

If we do go with the community feature, it would make it so much easier for people to find an overflow room if we ever need to create one. Not only that, but the community feature takes out the need to send friend requests to the host(s)... Kaz, you've done something right for once! lol

We used that feature last night in SNAIL enduro...made it very very easy to open a second lobby....but the side icons are mislabeled.....the top one says Club Lobby when it should say Club Lobbys....plural. The number over the lobby is the number of drivers IN ALL CLUB LOBBYS. When you click on it...it will then show you how many lobbys are actually available and how to find the proper lobby for your race.

The overall intent of this series is to provide good clean wheel to wheel racing for all divisions at the same time. While it is unlikely that a Division 8 driver could win over a Division 1 driver, even with the boost system enabled, it has been demonstrated that divisional overlap provided by boost system will provide everybody with somebody to race with!
Co-Directors Note: Those of you who are Fast drivers need to leave your " fangs" at home. You are going to be mixing it up with drivers who may be having their first race with actual wheel to wheel exposure. Be careful... they will brake earlier, utilize different lines, and in general present you with different overtaking problems. Patience and caution are the word. Bide your time and do things according to the Golden Rule.
Room(s) open at 9:30pm EST/ 6:30pm PST, Qualifiers begins @ 9:45pm/6:45pm sharp!. There is a lot of racing an want to get it done in a reasonable amount of time.

Race Format

- Grid position for first race length determined by SNAIL standard qualifying prior to the start of race one.
- Grid position for subsequent races determined by reverse finishing position from the previous race.
- Do not leave the lobby between races. Should you leave or be disconnected and come back in between races, you will need to fall to the back of the field SAFELY prior to turn #1.
- Drivers coming off and on pit road always stay on the correct side of the pit road line (DO NOT cross the solid lines).
- All races will be run under clear weather conditions (no rain) however some races may be at night. (refer to schedule for specifics).
- If you get disconnected you will be credited with last place. If you DC during qualifying you will start at the back of the pack for the remaining races in that car both races.
- If more than one person quits or gets disconnected during a race, your finishing position will be determined by the number of laps completed.
We expect all drivers to follow the S.N.A.I.L. OLR (which is a modified version of the GTP OLR) and pursue good racecraft at all times.
- if you're not sure what good racecraft is, watch this video.
- It can be summed up in one simple 'Golden Rule' of motorsports: It is the responsibility of the overtaking driver, meaning the car that is attempting to execute the pass, to make sure that the pass is made cleanly and incident free. If you don't agree with this rule or don't think it applies to you, please go elsewhere to race !
- Drivers who fail to participate in at least three of the previous season's races will be moved to Part Time Driver Status.
- Part time drivers will be allowed to re-apply to Active driver status at the start of the following season based on case by case request.
- Should more than one lobby be required the rooms will be split to provide the best possible racing. Rooms are arranged by division. Each room will be preassigned prior to the racing night.
Application Procedure: Click on the following link and enter you information.
Click here to Register
Refer to Drivers List (Active and Part Time Drivers) for Available Numbers, Body and Wheel Colors.
By submitting your application you agree to the S.N.A.I.L. OLR (which is a modified version of the GTP OLR) along with following The Good Racecraft Guide.

There will be be an overall championship
Points system will consist of the your typical points system used. First place will receive 16 points. Sixteenth will receive 1 point. The pole sitter will also receive additional point.

Unless you have done it recently take off the prejudice glasses.....the algorythims were completely reworked and in a SLOW car it is almost undetectable. Fast guys still win, and with penalties off the crowd races well.it is a superbe place for slower guys to learn from fast guys without getting collected. It has improved my SA BY ABOUT 6 months worth of SNAIL WRS and FGTA combined....at your skill level you will be one of the pack leaders and others can learn from you. That is what it is about. We tried using ballast but the boost is much fairer and allows those who fall off to catch up...we keep score but don't pay much attebtion to it.
A public thank you for your part in my win at Daytona last night. Many months ago you tutored Alien and I at Daytona...way back in the combo with the Subaru....you told us to hug the line...I did and won by .008....
