It's a 1200cc Type 2 Aircooled Beetle engine, custom stainless exhaust primaries and collector tuned for maximum power. They sound much better in person, like in the second half of this clip

Please shut down room by 08:45. .. about an hour from now.
I was thinking of making Round 3 open to any GR3 to make it interesting / testing for that missing piece of combo. I know G$ would like some feedback regarding this. He may not have as much time to test for proper car placement. I already nominated the Peaugout.
Could use some help with the texting that you also do very well.
@DesertPenguin09 you can too if you are around.

Do you have a good picture of your colours (cat from GT6)?

We started to use the gtplanet.net/snail link in welcoming messages to room settings as we know the snailracing.org is broken for now.
Any chance of fixing this soon? Our liveries are probably the best hook and many may be getting an empty page.
Those that do actively recruiting would appreciated it very much.

Do you know how much HP you get out of it?

A good engine on the national level averages 60-61, this engine in my car is in and around the 54-55 range... actually yesterday I pulled the pin on getting myself an engine built and flow tested by one of the class’ best engine builders, hoping for the average hp to get to 62-63. But with all things racing related you gotta pay to play. One or two hp is the difference between finishing on the podium or finishing outside the top ten in this class.

So this guy posted a new thread in the livery editor section with exact color codes for some things like Gulf, Martini, and BMW. Sounds like a good idea to keep track of it if you want to replicate those liveries perfectly.
I can tell you from experience that the red in the Toyota Gazoo decals is 0-100-85 but that's the first and only attempt I had at finding an exact color in-game.

I know.. but there was a few wanting to practice. So we did the Bathurst and then we tested GR3 cars at AlsaceII.
Then we did one of the 25 min. races for the Holiday festivities.
Exactly what I needed. Thx!

Here's your official SNAIL Welcome Post!
Thanks for your interest!
Here's what you need to know (and do) in order to join SNAIL Racing League:
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, @JLBowler, @nmcp1,@zer05ive ,@Rednose58 &, @MajorBlixem 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.
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.
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.

What is your Racing Number?

- OMG_mang
There is now a tuning prohibiting option when creating a lobby. Still no qualifying option unfortunately.
As for HP and weight; HP can be set to a max limit; however weight is also set to a max limit, meaning you can reduce the weight of your car and still enter a tuning prohibiting lobby. That and brake balance is still unlocked.
Lighter=faster, right? Granted, you can identify someone running lighter by selecting "member list" at the top of the lobby page but, WTF pd?!

👎 pffffttt!
On another note. @Wolfsatz , your liveries are getting better and better. I loved the Peugeot one that was further up in the posts. I think is was kind of a dark forest green and gold base livery. All in all, you're definitely getting a real touch for this. Frankly, I don't know where you find the time. My son and I have done a couple on his Forza games and it just seems to be a time warp. The more you do, the more ideas you have, and down the rabbit-hole you go.
This is the one I was taking about, but on my phone, in the movie theater
, it looked more of a forest green. It's still a great livery though.
