It is with great pleasure that I announce the winners of

S.N.A.I.L.s First Good Racecraft Award.​

Division 3 - Apmaddock

Seriously? Awesome! I always try to drive cleanly but I never really know just how well it's going. I know I've gotten into some scrapes with other racers, too, but try to acknowledge my mistakes.

Thank you to any and all who voted for me, and thanks to everyone who made D3 a great place to race last month!

👍 :dopey:


Happy 1,000th post.

Well, look at that. Thanks!

(How much wasted time does that add up to? ;))

For the guys always protect the inside line when they a slow you just make the race bored and you do traffic and accident.I think that type of racers need to be in others lowers division. There a big difference between 2 racers fast and clean and 2 racers slow n clean in a battle , let try to put 1 racers fast n clean and 1 racers slow n clean, you will see a accident soon

Wait, so you are saying that I'm not allowed to race?

Just because you are faster doesn't mean you are entitled to anything.

greenthumb: If you prefer to set fast times rather than race other cars, you're in the wrong league.

No apmadock i just give a opinion i have no problem this week end, i just want to give my best whit a clean driving i know the time its not the reason why im here

Well if you call it one minute per post... Put it this way, I have 60 posts and I can honestly see at least a couple hours at work that I have this site up every day. Let's just round it off at a ****load of wasted time.
 
My favorite part of last night, as a matter of fact, was being passed by qwiet on the last lap of the 1st race at Suzuka. He was at least a second per lap faster than me, but I held him off with everything I had -- from 130R all the way to turn 3, forcing him to pass me on the left on the straight, and then stay wheel-to-wheel with me on the outside through turns 1 and 2. In the end, he earned the spot by taking it, which I imagine was more satisfying for him than it would have been if I had just given it to him because he was faster.

Just watched that replay. It was a great showing of respect for a competitor but still good racing. We gave each other the perfect amount of room down the straight, around 130r and heading into the S-curves. That's what it's all about right there. Then we had a good battle with drrgreenthumb. Awesome race Doc and Green!

Indeed 👍
 
Just trying to gauge interest, how many of you would be interested in competing in a series where we take the last used combos in SNAIL, turn on aids and boost as well as high draft and no mechanical damage, and have a free-for-all Dirty SNAIL race? This would be held Monday afternoons around 5 PM Eastern.

Two things:

I have no interest in racing dirty, i don't know if I even could. (No offense to those who do)

5 pm on a Monday would be impossible to nearly everyone, me included. Not trying to shoot down an idea, just my $0.02.

1. By dirty I mean there is no rules, you don't have to wreck anybody if you don't want to, but if you get wrecked there is no need to fret, since anybody can catch up easily and we always will be fighting for the lead and such :)

2. I understand your concern, I can move this to any time up to 7 on any day except Thursday-Sunday.
 
I agree with Weaver. That's a pretty tough time slot. I hope you get enough interest, but you're basically ruling out everyone with a 9-5 job.

Speaking of Mondays..

OK, I think I have finally figured out a format for Mondays. A weekly rotation of events. One week will be monday mayhem, dirty racing and cat & mouse. One week will be manual monday, racing the previous sudays events with an h-gate and clutch. then a night for shuffle racing, and finally a night that winner picks one makes with damage on high, penalties off, and quick 2-3 lap races.

Concerning Manual Mondays, why use the combo that has been voted off? Focus more on the combo that remains intact.

Manual Monday, I like the idea of using the combo that won't change for the week or what ever really.

Rally, what's the plan for tonight? Is it the debut of Manual Monday? If so, what format are you going with?
 
I could hold it every other weekend on Friday & Saturday. Since I can never make the Sunday races, how long do they normally go for?
 
Hey guys, hope everyone is well.

Just thought I'd pop in for a minute and point out that, with the title change, I thought this was a spinoff league from regular S.N.A.I.L, not the regular league. Don't want you guys to scare off any prospective members by making them think you have to be an "alien" to race.

Hope you guys are having fun! I'm really missing the racing.

Agreed. SNAILIEN might be a good inside joke but some looking for SNAIL may overlook it.
 
I don't know how to do the pic thing. I would love to show them to you. I feel very good after only my 2nd week of racing here. I have a better feel and understanding of the caliber of racing here and totally respect it. Being in the Top 5 (5th) after the first four races was a goal that I set and reached; knowing I was sitting out at Spa.

SNAIL acing is top notch and I love it!!! I would love to race Spa, but I have issues paying for other tracks when there are so many to choose from to begin with.
