That would be great Handlebar. I can dupe it and send it back to you. If there is anything you would like in return let me know.

 

[Chiochan]

Goat, thanks for the help on the Alfa, nowhere near as many catastrophes now.

MMMEEEEAAAAHHHHHH (hrumph)..(cough) I mean you are welcome. Don't forget slow in fast out.

 

[Rallywagon]

Slow day...

 

[qwietstorm]

REALLY slow day.

 

[tezgm99]

I finally got my coffee machine broken in....for some reason it had 240 miles on it, then reverted back to 140 before I could change the oil so I had to do it again, lol

 

[JESter82178]

Do you guys share lap times before league night. Or is that frowned upon.

 

[Handlebar]

Share away!

I am around 1:58.5 in the Cappuccino at Madrid/Reverse, and a tiny bit above 2:01 at Daytona Road Course in the Alfa. I have not checked the Clio, but I recall around 1:18?

(1:58 is an error, I believe... I am OK on that one)

If you hit D1 for practice, just post a note here. Depending on time of day, you may get company if you want it.

 

[JESter82178]

Hitting D1 in 5 min.

 

[jobyone]

I misspoke when I said the colors I want, the color I actually want is pearl metallic Kashmir blue. Sorry bout that

Noted. Same Sublime wheel color?

Jobyone:
Dark Blue color for me.
Thx

Noted. Is there a number you want to run?

 

[the2armedmen]

Still lime but not sublime. Using lime light now

Hey S.N.A.I.L.s,

If you are looking for used cars I highly recommend Handlebars Used Cars. Not only did he have the model I wanted but he Rebuilt the engine and chasis, changed the oil Painted the car a nice Matte shade of gray and even washed it for me.

Now that is Service.

Thanks Handle

Hey Handle, what can you do for me. I'm looking for an 84 Rx-7 GT! Good Luck!
Honestly though, it saddens me that PD hasn't included the 79-85 Rx-7. It was the original sports rotary car. Even Forza has it! I almost want to buy an xbox for that game for that specific car. But alas, I could never give in the dark side. I'll just have to find a tokyo extreme racer disc.

Oh, right, and I am partial, as I have one in the driveway waiting for autocross season to start. Well. Maybe. If I can get it started. having some fuel issues...

 

[pyxen]

Added you to D1, but you were already on D2.

Oh! Ok then...thanks

I'll dupe the ticket in a short bit, and send it over.

LOVE the first gen Rx-7. I doubt anyone would judge you for going to the dark side. I have the same problem since polyphony apparently hates mustangs.

I know what you mean. My Grandfather had one of the first 79's in ohio. Got a few rides when I was young. He got t-boned driver side by a drunk in a Bronco in 82. He walked away without a scratch. The car did not survive

I want Forza for the BMW E30 M3, Audi RS4 V8, Ferrari 288 GTO, Ford Escort Cosworth, Ford Sierra RS Cosworth

...oh wait this is starting to sound like I am bitching about GT5

 

[Rallywagon]

I didnt know about the Cossies! oh Joby, why did you have to say those words! I'm still pineing? pinning? pining? ehh, looking into getting a Merkur. I would Cossie it out for sure.

 

[the2armedmen]

In d1 now

 

[Handlebar]

I have an '85 Savanna RX-7 Limited, but no '84 or before.

Enjoy the wheels, Jobyone.

Bed for me, already a brutal work week that only promises to be more 'fun' as it goes...

 

[jobyone]

I wonder if the 300hp 2.3 Eco boost (rumored for next mustang) or the 252 hp 2.0 from the new focus ST would fit?

I was tempted by this when it was on sale late last year

break it in with a long b-spec race. you can take it off the course before the race is finished and the miles will still count on the car

Provided the game actually does its saving screen thing, otherwise the mileage doesn't count

 

[the2armedmen]

i always press the save button myself before i get off because of the problems ive had with the saving on this game

after everyone left D1 i decided to have a little fun in the cap

and finally figured out how to post pictures lol

 

[kcheeb]

So who's going to join us in the SNAIL_Division2 lounge tonight for STaTS?

This is a great series that allows drivers of varying skill level to compete against each other. It uses success ballast to slow the fast guys. We had some great races last week week 👍 I don't know about you, but racing in front of a D1 driver gave me chills

This is the last night of this season, with an even better one planned for next. Just grab one of the four cars, set it up per the first post and hop in the SNAIL_Division2 lounge at 9:50 EST.

Hope to see you there!

Importing anything under 25 years old requires a specially licensed shop to modify the car the meet us standards. Meaning it's very cost prohibitive. If I had a million dollars...

That said, it would be fun to build that fabled Sierra Cosworth. One project at a time though. My wife drives a 99 Subaru Legacy that we are looking into specing out to a GT-B. Well, nearly spec anyway.
