I just gave the fgt a run with no aids. IMHO this is going to be a nightmare. No close clean racing with this one. I will do everything I can to race clean but again imho this will not promote close clean racing as is the snail way. Most of us I don't think will be able to dedicate enough practice time to be good with the car. Another thing is that unless we are able to adjust the final drive we will be banging off the rev limiter down the straights.
Since this is a no tune and no aids league I have a hard time saying we should allow aids as I always run without anyway. But this thing is a hand full. I think my car just smelled the grass and I was going for a long off road trip.
Just my two cents worth. Please be gentle.

Quite possibly a larger concern with the FGT is going to be the constant ghosting when going through the bus stop. It ghosts on entry and will ghost again through almost the entire right left exit of the bus stop. This is happening without getting a shortcut penalty. The game is recognizing the turn in at the speed we will be carrying as an unexpected manuever and ghosting the car.

I know which combo will stay once again. The clio at GVR. This sunday will be interesting to say the least.

You're saying "no aids" but are you using ABS?
Also, I just recalled that Coach used the wrong car once a couple of months ago. He received last place points for those races. As long as the driver using the wrong car does not completely ruin the race for other drivers in one way or another, he should get last place. If he does ruin it, he'll lose all points (consider it a penalty).
There's the answer for that. Sorry for the unnecessary bickering that came out of it. If I had remembered that case I could potentially have ended all of that before it began.

I honestly must have missed when it happened to Coach or I probably would have asked the question then. It's not about points and its not about how it affected those who have done it, I was just a question about the rules. When it happened to me I was in D3 and it was back around September of last year. Why would I be making this about points since it happened to me so long ago? I could understand if it happened to someone in D1 with me and it was for the night's win but come on. It was just a question about the rules. Sometimes instead of prejudging someone's intentions of a question try taking it for what it really is. I know a lot of people including myself express a lot of sarcasm on the forum but that honestly wasn't a case of it. I wasn't being facetious just wanting clarification of the rules. Is that a crime?

I would humbly suggest the idea of telling an audience you are writing sarcastically may be warranted if what you believe is 'clearly sarcastic' is not understood by a portion (based on responses, at least) of the audience.
Perhaps mentioning it was sarcasm in the first, second or some early response could help clarify matters.
And no, I am not being sarcastic.

But some may have used the car and it would now have to many miles to be returned to maximum HP. The cost of the car is above the limit imposed by SNAIL.

Excited about the races this weekend, it's about time for some real heart pounding action in these races

LOL...dude, the whole point of SNAIL is to have heart pounding action each race -- if you aren't engaged, or other racers arent engaged with you, you're in the wrong division still, and you probably sandbagged your time trial.
You ought to re-run the thing, and get placed in the right division, considering how much you're winning. That said, I do look forward to racing against you this week!

He was just promoted and if the winning ways continue, I'm sure it'll happen again 👍
There have been a few drivers over the last little while that have shown a 'light bulb going on' with respect to pace. As a result they've moved up divisions pretty steadily.
I'm calling it the S.N.A.I.L. factor
