My biggest obstacle is I am an "old" guy and busy with family life/kids, etc. on EST is not starting until 10 pm. Getting up at 5:30 is not helping. :-(
I grew up in the PST, so I do understand, but there are probably 2 or 3 events a week I "think I could'a" but for starting so late... No can do. I really wish I could.
I do understand, it is *my* problem. SNAIL is enough quality (and then some) that I wish I could be a bigger or better part of it.
And no, I would not besmirch SNAILs by competing or taking a spot of another. I am only a trainee SNAIL.

GlennGolfer1Well bro, if we do the one on one thing, you would have a week to figure out a time with your opponent for that week, if you lose you're out, if you win you're in next week, I personally think there would be some time during the week that you can find a mutually agreeable time, I know I'm flexible, just not 8 am, lol, and you wouldn't be taking anyone's spot, there could be a million spots, it wouldn't matter.
Just for clarification, the karts must be the PDI version, not the DLC karts that for some reason aren't PDI but are physically exactly the same as far as can be determined?
Todays not the 30th!LOL I was wondering why he hadn't posted it yet. It's not like him to be late.
C'mon SNAILs, it's go time!

I did not get the 1 vs 1 format. Apologies.
I'm just checking if there's interest, and if so what kind of racing do people prefer, one on one, or group, either way I'm good with it, if there's over ten people I will write up something formal, but right now there's just three that I know of, me, Joe, and Kcheeb, if you or anyone else is interested let me know, and I'll mark you down, I wouldn't really worry about time though, I'm sure we can all work something out.
That's four, nice time on the time trial, by the way.
F1 spot challenges sounds cool. I'm in.
*UPDATE ON TONIGHT'S FORMAT / INTEREST CHECK ON FRIENDLY CHALLENGE*
I spoke with our Wednesday night director and host (tcrash15), and we decided to mix things up tonight. Because we won't have official league races again until June 3rd, we don't want the current lineup to get stale before we even reach that date. Therefore, we'll be using the cars and tracks from the current lineup only for the first hour tonight, which means only one race per round instead of the usual two. The second hour will follow this format:This will also make it possible for us to have true spec (one-make) races with "pubbers" in the Open Lobby. We will likely be following this same format next week as well. However, I would like to know if any SNAILs would be interested in competing against this team in a friendly challenge next Wednesday night (May 30th). Our Round 3 combo meets their 500PP - 600PP requirement so if we have at least four SNAILs interested in this, I'll reply to their post to work out the details. This is what I would propose to them if we have enough interest:
- Winner of the previous race picks the track or a car off of the recommended list
- Second place of the previous race picks whichever option the winner does not pick (car or track)
- Repeat this until the second hour of racing concludes
Ferrari F430 '06 (Racing Hard tires)
Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps (number of laps set to equal about a 1-hour endurance race)
Please post a reply on this thread if you are interested.
I received an unsolicited FR from the Snail2 Lounge. Anyone know what that's about?
zer05iveThanks, Psycho Tuber! I've updated our original post with your banner. The banner itself is a clickable hyperlink that take you to page 307 (where all of the pictures are). 👍
Also, I'd like to announce an open competition to create a new banner for S.N.A.I.L. Please let me know if you're interested in submitting a design.

Hey everyone, don't post much but enjoy the racing on Sunday's.
I just want to say, how enjoyable it is to be part of this league. The way we treat one another, the generosity, and gentlemanly (or lady like) competition among us is phenomenal.
The range of ages, to geographical locations is astounding. I want to thank those of you that do all the hard work of stewardship, hosting, and just general management of this league, so that I can just pop-in on Sunday nights and enjoy the race.
Having said that I realize that I may not be contributing enough, and if there is anything I can do for this league (time permitting) I would be more than willing to do so. I'm a programmer with sql, asp.net, html, and vb experience, and just an overall computer guy.
Again, thanks to everyone for making Sunday nights something to look forward to.
No, that's what I'm talking about - spinning while going straight!^ That's what I'm talkin' bout!
+1Thanks cmbeal317!!
Cool, did you do the time trial at Cote? Aww sh:censored:t there goes second place.
Yes, but tune it for the time trial, or it's going to be pretty tough to get a good time.
