Does the Tesla benefit from break in mileage?

 

[OwensRacing]

Alright, throwing out something different for a car this week. Electric power! I chose the Tesla Roadster '08 on deep forest reverse. Once the tires warm up it's a pretty fun little car.

👍 I just realized that you're a fellow Oregonian. For my "Week of the Oregonian" Prize B selection, I'm going to replace the track. I think the NSX will be a lot of fun at Circuito de Madrid / Reverse. I enjoyed it when we raced this track in STATS, and I was surprised when I discovered that we've never gone there on Sunday. I think it will make for some fun racing.

Sounds like a good time. High voltage excitement this week!!!

Does the Tesla benefit from break in mileage?

Good question. Anyone?

Does the Tesla benefit from break in mileage?

I would have to think so. Burning question of the day...

Where are you from in Indiana owens?

No, no HP will be added by breaking in.

I have one to send if anyone is interested.

That should save me some time. Thanks for the info.

Nice pick, Gumball! We raced the Tesla back in the pre-GTPlanet days, but that doesn't count since it was so long ago.

Thanks DrKronin, I always appreciate when prize winners list their track selections in the exact format that GT5 uses (because that's the format I use in the lineup). Speaking of which..

The September 23rd lineup has been posted!!

(and there aren't any cars to break-in this week, so there's no excuse not to you have all your cars ready by Wednesday night's practice races! )

Had some good times there "back in the day". I grew up around the Mishawaka/South Bend area and went to Purdue.

For anyone that wants to join us tonight, we are testing out some builds on some FF RMs to see how competitive they are with each other, and test out a ballast system. Feel free to build one or all of these cars and come just kill some time in some little races with us in D2.

If we have too many people, we'll overflow into D3.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or post in the thread. This thread goes so fast that I may not see it.

 

[JazzNine]

Finally a week off of breaking in cars!

 

[dabneyd]

So, I want to do some shuffle/spec racing today, but I don't want to deal with a public room. Would there be enough interest to host some racing in my lounge?

 

[Chiochan]

count me in.

Why not just use one of the SNAIL lounges since most here already have access to them?

My thought was that it would be easier to add friends to my account versus adding people to the divisional accounts. I didn't think about the fact that most everyone has access to D1, correct? Oh, and there were some non-SNAILs I was going to invite if they're online.

I'd be interested in doing this, don't think I have ya added though.

True, but that would be less of a problem if you had the password to one of the divisional accounts. That way, you could add anyone you wanted at anytime you wanted. This is what I had in mind during our conversation on Sunday night regarding your Friday series (although I don't think I articulated that point specifically).

 

[dabneyd]

Ok, D1, 3:30. I'm finishing up swapping out pedals at the moment.

Edit: D1 Now! Goat and I are waiting!

We are migrating like the salmon of Capastrano from D1 to Open Lobby. room #

Its full

 

[GianDoe]

Been a few months since I raced with you guys but I know you do events during the week (or used to anyway). Anything going on today?

 

[Doodle]

The shuffle racing was lots of fun 👍 It gets difficult to pass when your car has no straightaway speed while all the other cars do

Hey GianDoe,

Vol's posted this, it's some prep work for the Tuesday series he's getting set up. His post has links to what's he's got planned tonight.

There's also this post that has a rundown of all our events.

Cheers,

kcheeb

It's good to hear from you again! Tonight is a test night for STaTS so please feel free to check it out. It occurs in the D2 lounge, but I deleted you from that account because of inactivity. Therefore, I just cleared room for you and sent you a new friend request so that you can access that lounge again.

SNAILs,
Stay tuned for an important announcement regarding our schedule. It's likely that we'll be changing up where some of our events take place, but we're still working out the details.

EDIT: pwned by the ninja master himself!

Thanks for the heads up guys, so essentially show up in D2 room (before 10pm) with something which meets these regulations for either GT or SC?:

It may be tuned but must be FR or MR no race mods (downforce) or "tuning garage" cars
SC:
No more than 355 HP with no less than 97% engine limiting.
A weight of no less than 1,300 Kg.
Any tires up to Sports Soft.

or

GT:
No more than 473 HP with no less than 97% engine limiting.
A weight of no less than 1,500 Kg.
Any tires up to Racing Medium.

Is this correct? What track is it, is it just testing or will racing be going on?

Actually, no, we're doing this tonight.

Ahh thanks for the clarification, brother. Let me think about it, I might catch you guys on a different night because I love front wheel drive about as much as I love splinters.

 

[ynot]

Request to join. Sounds like fun.

Hey ynot,

Request to join S.N.A.I.L. granted Plenty of fun to be had around here 👍

If you can get me your time trial in the next hour, we can get you racing tonight.

We run a clean league by enforcing the S.N.A.I.L. OLR and we expect all of our drivers to know and follow The Good Racecraft Guide.
Please become versed in both.

Follow These Steps:
1. I add you to the drivers list as a New S.N.A.I.L. (Done)
2. You run the Time Trial.
3. You Private Message my GTPlanet account with your time from the time trial (no Sunday racing until this is completed).
4. I assign you to the appropriate Division, to give you the best racing possible.
5. A PSN friend request will be sent from the appropriate SNAIL_Division1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 account. That is where you race on Sunday night.
6. You drive fast and clean on Sunday

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

The second post has the current race lineup and is updated weekly.

If you have a preference for car/wheel colour and racing number, post your choices in this thread.
To avoid duplication, the currently claimed combinations can be found here.

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

Welcome aboard and enjoy
