◆ SNAIL [Spec] Racing - Currently Recruiting for GT7 - JOIN TODAY!!Open

[kcheeb]

I just went through all the SNAIL_Division accounts and made sure everyone that was promoted or relegated for the March season had access to their new lounge.

That said, if you don't have access to the lounge you're racing in tonight, please send a friend request and post here, thanks!

 

[DJones]

I'm still out for tonight, but I am starting to feel better. I might be back next week.

 

[Luv2Coach]

Consider it done. I acknowledge 1 & 2. Sending pm...

Coach, sorry for the delayed response, but the timing of your drama did not mesh well with all of the other discussions (on the thread and behind the scenes) regarding start time, final weekly results, final monthly results, and promotion and relegation for the month. After all, there's only 24 hours in a day.

That being said, I read your PM to me (along with the posts I've quoted above) and I do feel that you're genuinely remorseful for what you did. I think we all let our emotions get the best of us sometimes, and I'm certainly no different. That being said, if you agree to race under these terms, I'll let you back on the grid:

1. Acknowledge that this is your last chance - any penalty, large or small, related to aggressive driving will be the end or your time in S.N.A.I.L.
2. Acknowledge that this you'll need to race six complete Sunday nights without collecting a penalty related to aggressive driving in order to clear yourself from "last chance" status
3. And finally, send a PM to Apmaddock and Oshawa-Joe and acknowledge to them that you realize that it was your aggressive driving that they were picking on, and not you.

If you do all three of the things above, send an FR to SNAIL_Division2 and let me know that you've done so.

 

[Luv2Coach]

It could be just before race that I get in PS3. If you can send FR I will accept and then enter room. Been gone 3 day. So may be 30 min before race time b4 I het to system. Is that possible.

zer0... Went to PM for tonight's questions...

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

@ coach

You have enough pm's explaining the OLR along with pictures and diagrams breaking down and explaining corner rights. You have all the tools you need. Sounds like you have the motivation to be clean. It all rests on your execution Sunday nights.

Keep in mind that you don't have to win every race, especially the reverse grid, to win the night. You can still win the night by finishing a number of races at lower positions. For example, a number of 2nd and 4th place finishes will still get you 84 points.

Show some patience and use the brakes to stay out of trouble.

Getting to practice a little after a long weekend. These cars are a lot of fun, especially the corvette rm. Nice picks to all that had a say in these combos this week.

Thanks for sending the FR. I just accepted it. Your comeback starts tonight. 👍

I'm pretty sure winning won't be Coach's goal tonight. His goal will be to prove that he can put winning on the back burner and make clean driving and good racecraft the priority. At least I hope so.

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

My point is that patience and racecraft can win as a strategy, but yes avoid contact at all costs.


I hope you do well coach. Good luck.

 

[zer05ive]

Goat, your PM box is full.

 

[Chiochan]

all clear.

 

[kcheeb]

all clear.

Full steam ahead 👍

Just an idea for prize for season winners. I don't know how it compares to the price of gtpedia but you guys could just buy PSN cards for 10 bucks or so and just pm the code of the card to the appropriate season winner. Just an idea though, since u guys are actually spending money on it do what you think is best, and it is much appreciated either way

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Here is my actual speed per Verizon's tester.

Now, I need a shower.

Had a weird thing happen trying to get the rm broke in. I did the Indy race and quit after 200 miles and ended up with no miles on the car. I'm now running at route x in my lobby to try and be ready in time for tonight. Interesting thing I found out: if you zip tie the throttle wide open and let it bump off the walls it will drive itself around route x at over 200mph.

 

[qwietstorm]

I just took my stock ZR1 that we ran a few months ago at Tokyo and race modified it. Luckily it already had 300 miles on it.

Did you save the game after you quit the race?

That's exactly what I did.

I quit and went straight to do an oil change only to find it didn't need one and had no miles. Danger was nice enough to send me one so I can get a few laps of practice in.

 

[IceWarden]

Kids are still up...no practice for me due to early start time. Bummer.

TJ does not change the time?

 

[Apmaddock]

Nevermind..

 

[Schmiggz]

Thank you, thank you, thank you all you directors, stewards and the rest of the dawgs that pull me back up on DIV3. Definitely one of my happiest snail days.

 

[DriftinAssassin]

Driftin appears to be having some connection problems not only with GT5 but with PSN too. Hate to say it, but im gonna have to call it a night.

 

[OwensRacing]

Intense and fun night in D1. Fell victim to Fuji's ridiculous penalty system and threw away a good chance at winning the last race.

Love the earlier start. Gonna wind down now.

Voted 3. Hope the car stays and the tracks goes.

 

[pyxen]

Sorry for the abrupt departure from D4, guys....so incredibly frustrated by that track and all the ridiculous penalty areas. Great fun tonight (all things considered).

LO...just read Owens comment above. Who the hell comes up with this stuff, right ??
