I wonder if team m.a.t.t.e. will want a rematch?If they do, I suggest we give other S.N.A.I.L.'s a chance to participate.

I agree. The more SNAILs that get to participate in these special events, the better. 👍

 

[dabneyd]

There were only 3 drivers who finished the race, Bronco, me, and Mopar, everyone else timed-out. Yes, Mazdaroto was the only driver from the opposing team to drive the full duration of the race.

What? I finished the race. For that matter, all of the S.N.A.I.L.s finished. Oh, I know what you mean now. Never mind.

 

[kcheeb]

no offence kcheeb, but your mic makes this constant popping sound, when im in the same room I mute your mic, maybe others do too.

no problem Glenn. from now on I'll mute it unless I have something to say 👍


thanks

I've never noticed that.

 

[GlennGolfer1]

Im not sure that is necessary bro, maybe something in the settings, minor adjustment im sure.

 

[Chiochan]

I would love to race in the next challenge, if permitting. You snails did great last night. It was a pleasure to watch such highly skilled drivers. Way to represent!

 

[zer05ive]

I wonder how good our d1 is compared to other leagues out there

There's really only one way to find out! Instead of just waiting for a league like Team m.a.t.t.e. to throw out a challenge, we could throw our own challenge. Thoughts?

I agree, try to make it more even and competitive. My main competition last night was from Mopar, Devious, and a guy I couldn't see. But on the bright side I lowered my pb to 2.27.2 and it was good practice for Sunday.

👍 nice time and your tire management is superb, 12 laps, sheesh.

I got mine down to 2:29.??? That was in the race though, not qualy. Although I did a low 2:30 there.

EDIT: Really good to see the thread back active again

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Man, Doesn't sound like it was an exciting night then. My goodness. Maybe we should do our own team challenge. Become Project D onIts a shame there were so many issues. I was hoping to see some good replays of tight battles between the teams, not a highlight of Sunday nights. I wonder how good our d1 is compared to other leagues out there

The top D1 SNAIL drivers would have a good time racing the guys from PURE. Those guys are all incredibly fast and consistent. Almost all of them are consistently 2 to 4 seconds per lap faster than I am. Very nice bunch of guys too.

I hit high 2:28's, but I make too many mistakes on Spa still. More practice is required.

For the next challenge, we should let D2 take a shot at it.

I raced with them in the past,they are really fast...It's hard to get the top spot!

Finish line after 15 laps (I'm in the grey car).Orange car is in 3rd and the other 2 in 4th.

I guess I'd feel like I was in a pedal car then

 

[fzappa]

Yeah we definitely need to remember to extend the time limit when we do these longer races. We usually do, but we've forgotten a few times as well. Sorry I didn't hear your suggestions. I would have definitely made it a point to change it.

I set the time for 70 seconds Should of set it for 180. My bad!
Also , I started the race at the 10 min mark which I should have started it at 15 min. Sorry if that messed anyone up.

Nick, did you want to start racing with us on on Sunday nights instead of just during the week? Our D1 drivers could use some competition better than the likes of me!

No worries Frank, it's all good. We got to race, that's what I was there for!

And in a longer race, grid position is less important, especially for the mid pack

 

[Nicktune]

Yes...I will send FR to D3 and D1.I'll race in D3 this sunday.

 

[dabneyd]

'Bout time.

Hey Nicktune,

The Canucklehead contingent gets stronger

I'm sure you're aware of the following information, but the S.N.A.I.L. Herder in me compels me to post it for you

I'll add you to the drivers list, you'll be starting in Division 3. If you can't make it on a Sunday, please be sure to give us at least 24 hours notice by posting in this forum, it makes things much simpler for us, thanks.

PSN friend requests will be sent to you from SNAIL_Division1, SNAIL_Division2 and SNAIL_Division3. Their lounges are where we race Sunday night and hold our various events. Here's a breakdown of the ways we use the different lounges.

During the week we run a number of different events feel free to jump in and partake!

The original post also has a lot of information regarding the league, commit it to memory

Welcome aboard and enjoy

If D1 wants a good, clean race the guy to message to set it up is R1600turbo.

These guys are very well organized pro racers and if the race is scheduled for 10pm you will be on your first lap by 10:01.

I'm pretty sure RT is busy right now, he's got his FMTC series and is starting that ISF RM Series, also he's trying to get into GTA again. But I race PURE and they are good no doubt.

^ I think the best way to do something like this would be to just throw out an open challenge to anyone interested (like what Team m.a.t.t.e. did) rather than to single out a particular person or group . That way no one feels "called out" or obligated to accept. It seems that would be a better way of ensuring the "friendly" part of the friendly challenge remains intact IMO.

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

You are correct on that one.

Agreed

Is tutoring running tonight or is anyone practicing tonight?

I've started a thread for the new experiment. If you are interested, please let me know. The more people interested, the more interest we can generate.

I'll probably make a post over in the tuning forum in a few days if I get enough interested drivers but need more constructors.

I'll let Devious advise on tutoring tonight, but Rally has been hosting a shuffle room the last few Thursdays for anyone not interested in tutoring. Rally, are you planning to host something tonight?

Everyone please go over to the Tuner/Team Series thread to discuss Vol's new concept or to just sign up! It's gonna be the shizzle!!

Ok, here is the official change to the first hour of Monday Mayhem!

Are there any plans to add videos from the unofficial races, like Monday Madness and such?
