◆ SNAIL [Spec] Racing - Currently Recruiting for GT7 - JOIN TODAY!!Open

I noticed the wheels on the Corvette and Mini Cooper are painted. Can we change the stock wheels so we can paint them? You can't paint most stock wheels.

Yes but you must stick with stock size. Plus 1 size isn't allowed in a tuning restricted room.

 

[goofytyler]

Are any of the rooms still open just got home

 

[jobyone]

Thanks for asking.
Sunday at 09:00 will likely work the best. Although there are times when I could make the earlier division. Is it one division or the other? I'll review the first post.

Going back and forth makes it hard on the people that do all the behind the scenes work especially the data side of things. For that reason they do want you to use one or the other for the month.

I understand now, thanks. 09:00 please.

I have stock size. My color for my cars is GT6 Chrome 004. If you need color on wheels or wheel names, I can provide that also. I'll check car number availability after I get placed in the proper division.
I finished all the stuff that was required and just submitted my Time Trial. Hope to be racing with you all soon.
Thank you

Welcome to the west coast div bud. It's pretty fun racing even though quite a wide spectrum of skill levels.

I'm done with gt academy, I've tried everything that's been told to me and it seems like I feel that I'll get that perfect lap it tells me that its invalidated even though I never went off the track. It seems like every race event I do I have the worst luck in the world so I'm done with gt academy since I'll never do good in the finals anyways.

Negative, lessons learned in the academy are also lessons to be used in snail, remember that.

That mini at brands hatch! Ugh had a smile on my face the whole time I was battle @msgt-sd and lead foot.

Hang in there.. it's a very difficult challenge this time, and a lot of us struggled with it.

To submit a color combination, please follow the link in my signature. You should submit the exact color name for both your car and your wheels. In addition, please select a number.

However, you should wait until you have received your division assignment so you can check the document to make sure the number isn't taken and your color choice isn't close to another driver in your division.

Nice atmosphere and great racing in the Mellow Yellow room last night. Thanks for hosting TEX.

 

[MajorBlixem]

Happy Friday to all!

Love the Mini at Brands Hatch! It's a far cry from my very first car I owned... a 1965 Mini Wolsley..1000cc engine.. However I beat a lot of Nissans, Toyotas and VW's racing from traffic light to traffic light back in days! The little guy packed quite a punch for its size!

Love the Mini at Brands Hatch!

Me too! Brands Hatch is one of my favourite tracks but I generally struggle with fwd cars (I found the recent Integra DC5 combos a nightmare). For some reason though I'm going pretty well in the Mini.

My first car was much more modern...........a 1969 Ford Capri 2000GT! Something like this:

Unfortunately, it wouldn't beat much between the traffic lights as the 2 Litre engine had been replaced by a 1.3.

Did a Google search and found mine too! It was also red. My pride an joy:

 

[turnupdaheat]

Yeah, lovely car I remember them well. A posh Mini.

 

[ATLskydiver]

Geez you guys are old.

Very posh... you could roll the windows down... didn't have to shift them sideways to open like the "other" Minis

You had to make your own whirring sound to pretend they were electrically operated though!

Geez you guys are old.

Ah yes, but we're still here to give you young whippersnappers a run for your money!

Yellow room drivers from last night - did you see my car (bright blue metallic) lagging in the first 2 races? Was it just me or was it everyone. From my point of view a lot of people were lagging at the same time, which makes me think it could have been just me that was lagging. Hopefully not an indicator of things to come... I think that if anything perhaps my particular connection did not play nicely with someone else's connection... didn't we have a non-SNAIL in there from Portugal or something?

I didn't see you or anyone else lagging as such but I was very close to you and nmcp when you went off at Paddock Hill Bend after what seemed like an odd contact.

Pirulito from Portugal was in the room at the time.

 

[wvhellbilly]

I didn't see anyone lagging last night. Everything seemed to run pretty smooth.

Was that right when I called it quits for the night? If so, yeah I was battling a couple people (probably you and @nmcp1) down the straight and then everyone started lagging (from my point of view) and I got bumped and sent off track. I've never had lag issues before, hopefully it's an isolated incident or something funky. BTW that Mini/Brands Hatch combo is a lot of fun, I love that track!

@intoflatlines It was more than likely my connection that lag punted you. I know I didn't "hit" you as I wasn't close enough, nor did I feel the hit but our connections just didn't mesh at that very moment. Sorry about that but I've been having the worst luck with lag the last few weeks.

Me too! Brands Hatch is one of my favourite tracks ......... For some reason though I'm going pretty well in the Mini.

"pretty well" ?!?!? Almost 2 seconds clear in quali!! Job well done 👍
