Will be going online for practice laps in about an hour, once I've updated the Driver List. Hopefully someone is around to help me shake some rust off.
 
Mystic, possibly otherwise known as Miss Stick, was a blast last night. I'm thinking that earthquake mighta' been caused by @socalnatv 's win in race 2. Perhaps even a cosmic "shift" occurred? Certainly a couple of tectonic shifts happened.

LMAO. I crack myself up sometimes.

Hope everyone is alright out there in the magic earthquake kingdom.
 
Any one in socal im Sure you all felt that earth quake that shttt was crazy lol I
Had to hold my tv to keep it from falling and the girl friend ran to get under
the table lol :lol: on top of it all it hit right where I live in Brea there's like 50
Ppl waiting in are tennis court area and are swimming pools water still moving


Im in San Diego, I didnt feel a thing- but then again I was busy!!
 
The S.N.A.I.L. Driver List has been updated, including the Part Time Priority List. In addition, I have moved Division Hosts to the top of their division list and listed a few key positions for quick reference. Please PM me if there are changes needed.

Now I'm off for some practice. Not expecting much this week as I think I have tennis elbow from trying the GT5 X1 seasonal event earlier in the week :ouch:. It was a lot of fun but I'm not risking going back for another shot.

Hey @Mark II (xpiratenationx) sorry again for hitting you when we were in first and second. It really shows my inexperience to jeopardize our positions by my doing that. All those times the advanced guys said to me 'if you fight with the person next to you, it just helps those ahead and behind you' kind of sunk in better now, me having to eat finishing in almost last place. I'm glad it didn't hurt your position as bad. I hope I'll be a little better to race next to now.

Thanks to @Schmiggz tonight for the extensive help around the Trial Mountain track. And also to @serge19 for his comments. And I can't help but add in by thanking @FloydC3 one more time for taking the limited time he had today to help my consistency on SPA. !!!! I ran three races tonight in Friday night practice on SPA !!! and never went off the track once!!! And that damn track is hard to not spin on. (but I got 3 'out-of-bounds' penalties coming up that hill-- back to practicing tomorrow:scared:) Thanks @FloydC3

No problem! I wasn't upset, I'm finally driving a little better through a pack, at least I felt like I did. Would enjoy practicing with you robindoood
 
This might be my last weekend racing on Sunday nights with SNAIL. I have falling in love with iRacing completely I haven't touched my ps3 in 4 days now because of iRacing. I love racing with you guys on Sundays but if you ever driven iRacing you would be in the same boat as me right now.
So is there an iRacing SNAIL thread? Not that I will be joining just curious. I love the list of tracks and I so wish GT had some of those tracks. It also sounds good! But the car selection just leaves me wanting. I love road cars and iRacing (obviously) is focused on racing cars.

If you want a real feeling for racing I say iRacing is the way not GT6 I'm not knocking GT I grew up on GT but I tried iRacing an it's the closest we will get to driving the real thing. If you are a die hard racer than iRacing is it. To be honest if I race GT6 again after this Sunday it will always be with SNAIL this was the 1st & only group for me in GT6 no other clubs can measure up against SNAIL. SNAIL will live on because of how great of a club it is & the people who make it run every week.

so basicly im doing replays for now on. i would play it but have no money and laptop now is way to slow for most likely
 
To any new guys that have just signed up for SNAIL to me is the BEST GREATEST group of sim style racers to be around. I just don't want you new guys to be thinking like dam why drivers leaving remember ITS NOT BECAUSE OF SNAIL. ITS BECAUSE PD CANT KEEP THEIR WORDS OR GIVE US ANY INFO ON HOW & WHEN THING WILL GET FIXED.


SNAIL IS THE BEST ITS PROVEN
9 SNAILS WENT TO GT ACADEMY
2013 GT ACADEMY WINNER CAME FROM SNAIL.


Sorry for caps just saw them.

Did anyone from div 7 get a message from Skillz? When I open it, its says tonight at 9:30 is this used from the 23rd or did they date change to today instead of the 30th
 
A lot of people seem to forget that SNAIL wouldn't exist or be able to provide it's members with such an exciting and varied number of events throughout the week without PD's efforts.

Sure, there's plenty of issues to be addressed but as far as I'm concerned the pros far outweigh the cons!

I disagree with that. SNAIL exists despite PD. There have always been compromises made in the way we run the league and races. Also note that SNAIL is organized on a forum that has no official affiliation with PD or Sony.

I thought that we would have some sort of functionality in GT6 that would assist in league administration, but that has not come to fruition, nor has there been any word on when or even if that is going to happen.

When was the message sent? I bet if you look a the top left hand corner of the original message, it will say it was sent Sunday at xx:xx time. That would make it last weeks message. This weeks message will probably go out tomorrow.
 
Hey guys. Took part in some Mystic racing last night. I gotta say it was a blast even tho I was way behind the whole time. It's awesome to be able to use the h gate and clutch in a race knowing you are not at a disadvantage. I definitely was because I stank!

Special thanks @zer05ive for hosting. Hopefully we can get some more snails to take part next week.

Also thanks for sticking around after @deaconblues82 for the much needed practice.

Dude you are on crack. This whole E-world we communicate in would not exist were it not for GT/PD/Sony. Take away the Gran Turismo franchise completely and tell me any of this would exist. How many of today's other racing games would be as good without GT pushing the envelope?

How many of our lives have been touched by GT? I know my eyes were opened wide way back when GT first came out.

I'm no fanboi of anything...but this one is painfully obvious. Give some credit where credit is due. How many times have you said to yourself "that was amazing", or something like it, while playing a Gran Turismo game by PD on your Sony console? You may be upset now, but the history is vast and your fond memories are many.

How many will call or spread the word to call SCEA like bill collectors stating the issues & unfulfilled promises from PD that might raise an eye brow.




Edit: It's has work with MLB THE SHOW another SCEA only game. It takes the whole community to make a change if you love or like a game & that's why MLB THE SHOW is the only baseball game out on any game console they took MLB2K out of business because of broken promises & unkept commitments.

To be honest if we have a issue free Sunday night I will be back again for next week. But if we have the same issues like in past weeks with disconnect I will be done until PD fixes game.
 
I bet if some1 came out with a hack to get free $$$ on GT6 PD will get off their lazy a$$ & fix that real quick why because it's money they lose. Also with every patch so far they had a hot fix why because they are rushing an not QC their work that's sloppy & bad business.
 
We felt it in HB. I was running around like Ricky Bobby after getting out of the car after his big wreck...

I wonder if your daughter was scared more by the earthquake or you wearing a helmet and underwear ?

Looked for you at the donut shop today, maybe next week.
 
Here's what I could get for times so far:

Integra @ Deep Forest: 1:18.316

M3 @ Apricot Hill: 1:27.535

Megane @ Spa: 2:25.753

Should be good to go for sunday!
