[Dragonwhisky]

We started season 2 couple nights ago. Think we're on episode 5 or 6 there. Weird and Funny. Yup that about describes it.

 

[ABrick13]

This Z combo at blue moon is really really fun

No. @Gurney67 responded to the prize winner "conversation". Said he would have pick up last night. Probably fell asleep, or something. Us old folk do that sometimes. 😝

zzzzZzZZ..wha? I'll be picking it tonight, promise!

 

[Dragonwhisky]

@CdnSweetTee Nice track pick there. I haven't done the CE for either Full or A. Thinkin' 'bout fixin' that deficit tonight. Leastwise for A anyway.

Hey Donkey Kong guy.. (@Dragonwhisky ) have a challenge for you. Beat a time of 4:26.624 in the new time trial with the Bugatti Veyron Gr.4 by Monday evening when the SNAIL race results are posted. That isn't too crazy of a time as it is the current cutoff for silver.

I'll take you up on that bet. I tried to run some laps, all were invalid for mysterious reasons and best was a 4:31

Unless the price changed drastically, I see the Mondial listed for 2 mil above cap.

 

[CANOWORMS1]

Unless the price changed drastically, I see the Mondial listed for 2 mil above cap.

Yeah. I see it's for sale at 2.7 million.

 

[Akzl298]

Yeah. I see it's for sale at 2.7 million.

Ah, drastic. Not enough though

 

[Gurney67]

Oh crap, I didn't even think about cost, as it's one I already have. I'm jumping into my rig now to find a different ride. Sorry about that

 

[Buffalo_DRD]

Maybe it’s just me not understanding something regarding backup cars.

The M3 used in last weeks combo is currently available in the UCD. So in this instance, why the need for a backup car?

 

[Dragonwhisky]

The M3 Evolution is in the UCD.

 

[Gurney67]

Okay, let's try this:

TVR Tuscan Speed 6 '00
SH tires
Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit
Morning 8am fine weather

I managed a few 1:40's in a short session. I'm sure you guys will be faster

Is that TVR in Brand Central? If not you'll need to pick a backup from BC.

 

[Gurney67]

It's for sale in the UCD right now. Not limited supply yet. I'll find a backup today

 

[A_Higher_Place]

With back up cars now, does this mean the LCD and UCD vehicles will only get one race night before having to be switched? I don't know if I've seen the same UCD car appear frequently enough to maintain two Sundays in a row now.

I’m a relatively new Snail member and don’t want to step offside but this comment somewhat captures my concern.

Did the whole back-up car thing start as a means to try to get attendance up?

I think this new system will take us to a spot where 2/3 cars will flip every week. And if that’s what we want, then forward we go.

But I enjoyed how a car can stick around for multiple weeks.

Off topic question: what are some good ways to earn CR? I’m broke 😂

Shorter credit grinds

The popular credit grinds that I’ve read about are around 24-28 minutes depending on skill level. What are some shorter 4-8 minute options? I read about race 1 of the Pan American championships. That pays $35,000 for 4-5 minutes. Are there better alternatives? Someone said to check out Circuit...

Backup is Alfa Romeo 4C '14, CS tires

Dragonwhisky gave you a good list. I've been doing the WTC800 at Sardegna A in the Honda NSX Gr2 on RH tires with the fuel economy set to 3, which makes fo one stop for fuel around lap 8 or 9, tires optional. Most cars do 2 stops. Sometimes there's a real rabbit in the field, but generally it's a laydown clean win. At just under 800k credits, it's not bad. My success rate with the competition on Hard isn't 100%.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Under the new tire regs, there will be no less than SH on any car.
