◆ SNAIL [Spec] Racing - Join now to win a Digit Racing EDGE Masterclass enrollment!!Open

[dangerzone641]

Okay, with this episode of "As the SNAIL World Turns" over with (I hope), I would like to reintroduce my idea. Tonight I will not be streaming the races. Instead I will be recording them live. So starting when the room is reset for the first round of qualifying, I will start recording, and end/start recording somewhere inbetween races. Through the rest of the week I will go around and promote the feed and try streaming again next week. With that said, has anyone made a SNAIL youtube channel? If not, I will be setting one up this evening.

I believe someone made a channel, it has a few races from D4 on it.

Here's a link to it

Hey D3 have a great time tonight, I'm in Palm Springs and won't get home in time to join.

 

[fastfox400]

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

I've just started up a new thread called S.N.A.I.L. Weekly Kart Racing.

We'll be running on Tuesday nights at 9:00 P.M. Eastern time in the SNAIL_Division2 lounge. Feel free to join in for one, two, three or all the races.

I hope we can get a bunch of people out, the Karts are a blast to race and will help you learn techniques for being a faster racer. Don't discount what you can learn from these things, some of the worlds best drivers learned their craft in Karts. To name a few, Lewis Hamilton, Ayrton Senna, Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart.

Hopefully we'll see you on track this Tuesday 👍

Cheers,

kcheeb

Karts were fun last week, kcheeb. I felt I learned a lot in a short time.

Should my kart need more than 150-200 miles to break in? I ran for 75 last week during the races. 👍

Good stuff Handlebar

As far as I know 200 miles will break it in, like most other cars in GT5. What numbers are you at? I can check mine shortly.

Should probably have those numbers in the new thread too.

EDIT: I updated the Kartvthread with my numbers, the Junior Kart doesn't have enough miles on it to be broken in fully.

Sound like a plan, Rally. Thanks for stepping up! I'll add a way for you to earn $hells for your videos as well. 👍

Yup, I added Edwin42 to TEAM S.N.A.I.L. after he made this post. Unfortunately, that was his last post on gtplanet and then he disappeared.

Does anybody have a broken-in Ginetta G4 '64 that they can send to me? Due to a cramped schedule this week that was the one car I was unable to get to.

If not, no problem.

It's on the OCD so it doesn't need to be broken in

Edit: also welcome to snail, glad to see you here 👍

The Ginetta is in the OCD, just oil change and good to go 👍

EDIT: ninja'd by danger, that's been a while

 

[DrKronin]

Has GTPlanet been loading slowly for anyone else today?

Unfortunately, I'm going to miss the racing again tonight I'll be out of town next week, so hopefully I'll be back on October 6.

Good luck tonight everyone!

 

[Rallywagon]

Soooo, that G4. Probably my absolute most LOVED car we have raced! Ok, excluding the two Rx-7s. This car just hangs that back end out all day! this thing is great!
Yeah, for sure I like this car, wow is it fun. It would be great at the ring. Both Autumn Ring for league and the Nurburgring for fun. Sports hard is perfect for this car too. Its so well balanced and neutral steers very well. Going to be a fun first round.
That beast of a ford on the other hand. Slow is smooth with that thing! Don't hurry that guy, cause its not going to rush around a corner. Definitely a "squeeze the throttle" type of car. I think this car would actually be better on sports soft. As tire wear would be a bit longer, and I thinking neutral steer would be much easier to achieve.
Going to be a fun night folks. Remember to keep it a slower with this trans-cammer. And be on your toes around a pack. no doubt there are going to be a few people going round, no doubt myself included in that list. Should be some fun racing though.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Being the drifter you are, I would expect you'd love that car Rally.

Heading into D1 in a few for some Sunday night warmup.

[soundtiger95]

Sorry for the late notice but I won't be able to race tonight. Should be good to go next week so I'll see everyone then.

 

[Rallywagon]

Well, it seems that three accounts now exist, since I also made one, as per my posts earlier.

 

[DriftinAssassin]

Sorry for double post, but I have just created a YouTube channel called SNAIL, I thought that we could use it as a place that we can upload races from different divisions all in one place. So if there is anyone that would like to upload races, PM me and I'll give you the info for the channel so you can upload.

I'll send you one tomorrow danger.

 

[dangerzone641]

I'll send you one tomorrow danger.

Talk to rally wagon, his idea first, I took it, giving it back.

 

[Rallywagon]

Expect a big post on the video stuff to hit sometime tomorrow for all of you video guys.
BTW. Most ideas are original, as my idea for the video stuff is spurred by Cheeb. So no worries DZ. Could always use all the help we can get.

 

[OwensRacing]

I'm looking at not making it tonight. I'll be honest. GTA5 has me hooked and the G4 I truly can't see myself stopping something for fun to get frustrated with a car I don't care for.

So as of now. I'm gonna just play GTA5.

Sorry, I really not interested in driving that car at all.

 

[Rallywagon]

D4 is opened up for business.

An hour early? Come to D1 we've got 11 in here

 

[JLBowler]

Unless I have a drastic change of heart in the next 45 minutes, I won't be racing tonight. It's been a long day already and I just don't want to deal with any more frustration of any kind today.

 

[Rallywagon]

Thanks, but I'm in here messing with video settings and being a general nuisance on track at the moment.

Real quick, I'd like to show off the mod I mad to my rig today. Added the seat, no more sitting straight up on a old uncomfy chair for me! This is a prototype though, just to get measurements and placements right. A rough, rough draft.

 

[Handlebar]

Where did you find the seat?

 

[fastfox400]

If I remember it from a ford taurus..

 

[ThePDTX]

Your rig looks awesome Rally! Are you going to paint the wood?

 

[hooker4]

Should be there tonight guys. Just got home from a very long day at work. I may miss qualifying but I should be there for the race.
