Lap times, please? (1:20 - 1:25 maybe?)

Sorry about missing that. I had intended to get that info after dinner last night but got called back into work.. It was all I could do to just get it posted...

As my close out to TBT, here is a couple of photographs, taken long before digital cameras were being developed but reproduced digitally with an affordable scanner called Image Box Plus. My HP ScanJet 3500 couldn't reproduce them any better.

This was my bike in the summer of 1982, about a month after purchasing new from the dealer, and a month or so before my epic ride through 9 states, and almost a year from her death on a freeway in Los Angeles. Yes, I cried just a little when Suzi died.

15 or so years later, after falling for the wife and kids thing, Zuk and I got to know each other. He crouches about 30 feet from me, at this very moment, waiting for a new power source, and fully ready to add more to his current count of just a bit over 36K original owner miles. First year this model was imported to the US. I waited 15 years for Suzuki to build it and if I have my way, I will be buried with it.

'97 Bandit 1200S, Case Guards w/highway pegs I never use, Corbin Gunfighter and Lady seat, replacement wheels (not in picture) after running over a 2" diameter piece of branch that bent both, had them painted to more closely match the bike color. It's horribly dirty in this pic.

@Dragonwhisky
All I can do is thank you.

I asked DW if he would be willing to come in and spend some time with D8 to go over all things related to SNAIL and racing in general. He immediately accepted and delivered beyond expectations. Everyone who was in attendance walked away a better driver. Thank you for covering the rules and regulations from the on-track perspective, giving us the visual references that you did was the absolute icing on the cake.

SNAIL'ers, We are fortunate to have him here.

As a Reminder Race Camp is tomorrow night @ 9:30PM EST.

We will be covering braking zones, passing techniques, along with defensive driving while at speed. ​

 

[chatva]

I had such a blast tonight!
I may not be racing Sunday though!
First off I got work.
Second off D6!
Really?
Zoom Zoom guys!

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Good stuff in D7 tonight. Had a great time in the Zonda, even though it doesn't brake or turn in as well as you'd think it should.

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

Welcome to my nightmare...

Yeah but now I'm back to normal lol. I think it is because of the cold weather some one may have taken out a bell tower or something

 

[TomMang_68]

[Falango]

Data is in for D2. Sorry, too tired tonight for the numbers game. Next week!

@EpicGonzago

Here's your official SNAIL Welcome Post!
​

Thanks for your interest!
Here's what you need to know (and do) in order to join:

We run a clean league by enforcing a strict penalty system based on the SNAIL OLR (which is a modified version of the GTP OLR). We also expect all of our drivers to know and follow The Good Racecraft Guide. Please become versed in both if you aren't already. Once that is complete, please follow the steps below to complete your entry into the league:

1. You start a conversation and add @CoachMK21, @Dragonwhisky, @JLBowler, @nmcp1 & @zer05ive as participants. The conversation title should be "Request To Join".

2. SNAIL Administrators will respond with specific instructions on what you need to accomplish to join the SNAIL [Spec] Racing club. Sunday races are organized exclusively through the GT6 Community features within the game.

3. Place the following links (URLs) in the favorites (or bookmarks) in your web browser for quick reference. Please make every effort to read and understand the following links. Over the years a great deal of time and effort has gone into creating this league and we would like nothing more than to have you but we ask that you take the time and effort to do your homework. 99.9% of any question you may have about SNAIL can be found in the posts below.

• Original Post
• Drivers List
• SNAIL FAQ

4. You drive fast and clean on Sunday 👍

Again, the original post has everything you need to know about what to expect on Sunday night and what you will need to have completed in order to be competitive. If you have any questions, please feel free to post your question on the thread. If you have a preference for car/wheel colour and racing number, please follow the instruction contained here.

During the week we run a number of different events, we encourage all SNAILs to join as many as possible.
Welcome to SNAIL

Yeah, that's DW but there's a lot of more people here willing to help anyone who needs it. That's a big part of being a snail.
