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

[DesertPenguin09]

There are plenty of cars that were used only once that are worth going back to. They were just given a poor choice of track. Don't forget those.

 

[Handlebar]

I finished my review of the 2 incidents this week.

 

[RobbiefromBC]

As much as I dislike the Gtr nismo lmp1 car, I would like to see the one with the throwback colours do well this year. Who knows, maybe history will repeat itself and they get pole again... Curious as to see who in snail is rooting for who this year. Personally I'd like to see the Volkswagens from Stuttgart take a 1/2/3 podium...

Well. I am a fan of all the teams in LMP1 but I want Porche to win and upset Audi. Also for GTE Am I am rooting for the Dodge Viper GTS-R from Riley Motorsports

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I want Toyota to do well because they can.

 

[Mike Lobban]

This was my favourite race of the night. I have put a little reel together showing my point of view in c3 r1

Awesome, jeez, that Lobban guy is gooood. Ha

 

[McTrucker]

Help!

My PS3 will not turn on. When I push the button it starts to turn on and then turns off, and the red light starts flashing. Anyone know how to fix this?

 

[NoSkill2Kill]

I gave myself the freedom to make an event report regarding last sunday racing.
it was good. ...It was really good.
Our division is so unpredictable it's not even funny! When I realized that Nobby and Kickinit might be the worst competition there, JL and Dragonwhisky come up and say, hey! Watch us too. Coach is though too although he tends to enter the pit lane for no reason and then there's Blixen and Tom Mang that have this strange ability of coming out of nowhere and smoke you!
Birdie is somehow a little inconsistent, maybe when he feels uncomfortable with the track, or the car, or both. But when he's comfortable, he flies like bird.
There's no favourites, there's no underdogs, just better or worst Internet connections.

Off the current topic but I found this hilarious.

I couldn't stop laughing @Dragonwhisky Just struck me hilarious two fast cars being beaten by a VW.

Sounds like what happened to me with the Fat version of the PS3 which i think is called the Red light of death. Their are youtube videos showing how the system can be cleaned out. I believe @zer05ive posted a video showing how the ps3 can be cleaned out without taking apart the system. I didn't know about that video so i had to end up getting a new system with the PS3 slim.

@McTrucker
After googling your problem (see link above) I believe it is the Ylod (yellow light of death) said to be a hard drive failure or the motherboard is fried. I hope this is not the case. If it is, it may be repairable, but a new system may be in the cards for you. It often occurs in the 60GB systems reportedly due to brittle solder. Good luck Mr. McTrucker. My prayers are that this is easier for you than I think it will be.

 

[TBongX]

Too many votes for Combo 1!! There were supposed to be just enough so we change the track but keep with the car. You ruined everything!

Sorry, but I was tired of that car.

 

[chatva]

I've decided my Freeze, waiting the go ahead @Dragonwhisky

yeah I don't like cars with a loose back end they are to unpredictable for me (The alpine and z come to mind)
But le mans oh I love her! so I pushed the Z and practiced with her! Monza she's my baby I like her more then Le mans and the challenge of the 80's layout oh man she's a beast

Having the back end step out is better then have the front end push..

is it a double post when the quote's are separate?

 

[TomMang_68]

Sorry, but I was tired of that car.

Oh, he was blaming you ? I thought he was blaming me...whew, that was a close one. Wasn't expecting him to get all cattywompus on us! (psst... he voted for 1 too)

Spoiler: The truth about double post (asmangseesit)

a double post is two entrees by the same person 2x in a row. You will see see your avatar twice in a row on the thread. You're example isn't a horrible double post because you are replying to 2 different subjects. It would take a little work to go back and edit an earlier quote, but i can be done.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I'm not blaming anyone specifically. No blame at all really, just being silly. I was hoping we could keep the Alpine and change tracks but oh well.

 

[chatva]

room up!
lets try a Nismo 270R '94

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - Alpine A110 1600S '72 (Sports: Hard) at Deep Forest Raceway / Forward (7 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @TomMang_68 wins Prize A, he gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 2 - Lancia DELTA HF Integrale Rally Car '92 (Sports: Medium) at Autodromo Nazionale Monza '80s (6 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @chatva gets Prize B, he has the option to freeze the car or the track, or he can give that option to the Prize C winner. If he gives the freeze away, then he gets to decide what car or track replaces the part of the combo that is left unfrozen by the Prize C winner. IMPORTANT NOTE: Since @chatva has already made a Prize B car/track selection this season, his only option is to use the Prize C "freeze" for this prize.

Prize C goes to @cmbeal317 so he gets whichever option the Prize B winner does not select.

Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your prize selection until all incident reports have been filed and it has been confirmed that you don't have any penalties. It's also recommended that you review the SNAIL combo history and other data on our car and track history so that you can get an idea how many times we've raced each car and track. Please remember that originality is always appreciated,so picking cars and tracks that we've never raced is a plus (but not required). What's more importantis that you thoroughly test any combo that you are considering before making it your official selection. For example, no car you select should not hit its rev limiter at any point during a race (even in the draft).

IMPORTANT: When posting your Prize A or Prize B selection, please list the complete in-game name of the car and/or track you are selecting. For example, if you want to select the Amuse Superlegara for your car, post "Amuse Nismo 380 RS Superlagara". If you want to select Monza for a track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". This makes it much easier for the lineup to be updated accurately and also prevents confusing other league members as to which car or track you are selecting. Also, please be sure to list the PP and HP (after oil change) of any car you select.

Car Selection Guidelines
Dealership Cars - The maximum price for a selected car is now $1,000,000
DLC Cars - Only DLC cars that are FREE and currently still available in the PlayStation Store can be selected.

Track Selection Guidelines
Any non-DLC track can be selected as long as a single lap with the car combo'd with it would not take more than five minutes to complete. For example, don't select anything that includes the Nurburgring's Nordschleife.​

 

[MSgtGunny]

So rule check, technically the Nissan GT-R LMP1 car you get for round 4 of GT Academy isn't in the dealership, and its not a DLC car so you don't have to pay money for it, so would it be choosable as a SNAIL car?

 

[Falango]

Having the back end step out is better then have the front end push..

is it a double post when the quote's are separate?

Yes it is. Combine quotes using the "+ quote" button. It......you guessed it......adds quotes! Then at the bottom where you'd type your reply, click on insert quotes.

Doubt it. As I surely won't be forcing my way thru gt academy (if I even could) to make it to round 4 to get that car. I never even did round 1 as far as I know
