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

[fzappa]

I can put up a pick but was waiting for @Xradkins to make his picks so i don't duplicate a track.

Don't worry about that. Make your choice

 

[tezgm99]

I believe I have done the reviews for the week

 

[Daniel Setili]

With help from my fellow D3ers, i choose to bring the Camaro home to America at the INDIANAPOLIS ROAD COURSE.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Keep in mind all, we will not be having official races on the 31st. The September season begins on the 7th. We have 7 days until the Thursday practice for that is held.

I have seldom done well there... but the Camaro at Indy... just sounds right.

I'm hoping this is a chance for me to improve my record there.

 

[jimeez]

I was hoping that it was going to be run there 👍

Even though we are not running this weekend all picks must be done before the weekend ?

 

[CoachMK21]

Since I randomly grabbed top post, I'll add some more interesting content.

SNAIL Social Media​

In an attempt to help @zer05ive have more of a presence on Twitter, he's given me access to "@SNAIL_Racing" to promote our league. I've reached out to a small group via a PM already, but what I would like to do is try to get anyone who has a Twitter account to submit it via the color / number form.

What I would like to do is recognize SNAILs on Twitter for their outstanding efforts. Weekly Sunday night divisional winners, prize winners, season winners, 1 year, 2 year, anniversaries, etc. But this won't work without you giving me the information.

You can use this FORM to submit your information. Thanks for helping me promote you and SNAIL!








The last time we had a weekend off from official races, we still had the official practice night on Thursday.

 

[BayouSimDrifter]

Guess I'll start practicing at indy.

-Attention Division 3-
@AJKVail, @alienracing, @Drgreenthumb977, @dubiousOne, @Falango, @FloptaStr8, @GGGMotorsport, @gotdirt410sp, @Loxley, @noseknows36, @RACECAR, @Schmiggz, @socalnatv, @STRDUBBS13, @Subiepig, @turnupdaheat

In light of not having a official Thursday night practice, I'm calling out to ALL D3 racers to meet me in a 'friends only' room I will open on Thursday night at 10pm ET / 7pm PT to test a 'fixed host' room setting to see if we can resolve the issue of people that can't see each other. I encourage EVERYONE to join in this test, especially the ones that had issues this past Sunday or in the past. I don't want to have anymore issues and I sure don't want to have a few of you not be able to race because of not being able to see other on the track after practicing during the week and show up to race and can't because of these issues.

So please, make a concerted effort to join. Even if you can't stay for long, just joining for the test will help. It's up to all of you to make Sunday night go smooth, not just me.

Once the test is all done, which should not take very long if everyone shows up on time, we will have practice.

I thank you in advance for your cooperation​

[Xradkins]

With help from my fellow D3ers, i choose to bring the Camaro home to America at the INDIANAPOLIS ROAD COURSE.

Ah, home to AMERICA? Where do you think Laguna Seca is? Try a google map search if that helps. But on another note, IMS is a good choise. : )

[IceWarden]

I would say Indy Road is a much better choice than Laguna. Car gets to stretch its legs and the track suits its characteristics much better.

 

[zer05ive]

It's the typical Thursday lull.. Let's see if we can change that!

Introducing #STBT (SNAILThrowbackThursday)

STBT Rules:

1. Anyone can start a topic.. as long as it's Thursday
2. You have to include a picture (or video) with your STBT post
3. Stay on topic - don't post a picture of "your first girlfriend" if the topic is "your first car" (unless your first car was your first girlfriend.. )

I'll give everyone five minutes to start the first STBT topic. If nobody does, I'll start one.

 

[MajorBlixem]

Welllll since tomorrow rings in the start of the loooong weekend..

 

[zer05ive]

#STBT Topic - What was the first album you remember buying?

Mine was a Bon Jovi Slippery When Wet cassette. I was nine years old and I couldn't stop singing Livin' on a Prayer

I have no idea. Also, what are the combos for this Sunday?
