.... And Porsches!




Porsche 356, 959, Carrera RS, Carrera GT... Just to name a few awesome cars!
Porsche I believe had a contract out and wouldn't give PD a license to use their cars. So PD got around that by using RUF's. Porsche got mad and RUF's nearly left the game I believe. Anyway, I'm not sure but I heard that Posches contract either expired or is nearly so. Maybe we will see Porsche in GT6.
 
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!

I want to join this now that I looked at the list of cars, 4 of my favorites, especially the weds
 
Practiced some last night with the Alfa and Renault. Got to 1:58.9xx with the Alfa and 1:16.9xx with the Renault. Need to work on consistency. Will work on the cap tonight. Thanks Goat & 2armedmen for the advice in the practice lounge.
 
I stand corrected. So the day that has opened is Fridays.

Joby are you available for this time frame on Friday?

Maybe Friday is opening. Hill and I are going to talk about switching Friday and Tuesday, so stay tuned.

Based on last night, it looks like STaTS is staying on Tuesdays nights? Is this correct or is there a move to Fridays in the works? Whatever you guys decide it fine, but let's get it sorted so that we can set the schedule. :)

I think the deal is still being brokered ;) Hill and/or Dabney will be posting soon.

Also, I think jobyone is waiting on word from cmbeal as to this Saturday being open or not.

We are switching nights. We're going to work out the details this week, and we'll post up the plan before the end of the week.
 
I would like to join. I already sent my time to kcheeb.

Thanks

Hi HusamOne,

Thanks for your interest! I must say we like it when someone follows instructions and is fast:) We are always happy to have drivers who race clean. Here's what you need to know and do in order to join:

We run a clean league by enforcing a strict penalty system based on the S.N.A.I.L. 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 run the Time Trial. (NOTE: The tires selected for this have more grip than our current tire regulations allow, but please follow the directions exactly anyways).
2. You PM kcheeb with your time from the time trial (no Sunday racing until this is completed).
3. We assign you to the division that we feel will give you the closest competition.
4. We send you a you a PSN friend request from the corresponding SNAIL_Division1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 account. That PSN account's lounge is where you will race on Sunday night.
6. You drive fast and clean on Sunday 👍

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.

Please note that we often race DLC from three add-on packs:

Racing Car Pack
Course Pack
Twin Ring Motegi Pack

If you don't have these add-on packs, you will need to sit out the races in which they are used.

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, we encourage all SNAILs to join as many as possible.

Welcome to S.N.A.I.L. :cheers:
 
Stewards, any update on the reviews from the last week of the January season? Are you guys done reviewing the footage or are there still some incidents being looked at?
 
Color / Number Request for JESter82178

Car: Gris Quartz
Wheels: Orange
Number: 24

Thanks

I will happily get the color chart updated but have one question what color is Gris Quartz? If you could indicate it based on the color chart it would be appreciated.
 
Gris is grey.
While I was able to figure that out;) we have five shades of grey in the chart and three are spoken for in division 3. So I was just trying to find out if it was a light or dark shade I guess:)

It's light gray/silver. I can change if need be.
No Problem. Just let me know if it conflicts.

Thanks

Take a look at the chart for your Division (D3) Color chart. We are pretty heavy in the grays but if you think it fits between Bug and Spoobles colors let me know. Otherwise there are a lot of unloved colors in D3 that would help your car stand out when you are passing people:idea:
 
Ah. I see. Looking at the color chart I may be conflicting with bug. I'll do the medium bright blue for car color and keep the orange wheels.

Took a little while for me to figure that out. Sorry

Having trouble with the wheel calibrating. Had to quit after the first 2 races and qualifying for race 3. Wheel was 45* off center to the left during qualifying and there was no way I could race like that. Right now it's in the floor in pieces. All of the browsing I've been doing says there's possibly a "loose screw" on the engine but I can't find it. Sent Rally a PM hoping he can provide some insight.
 
My brakes kept sticking a bit tonight which was rather frustrating. That said, it wasn't the best of practice sessions, very messy. Hopefully Sunday night won't be like that or the stewards will be mighty busy and annoyed.
