Was wondering what everyone thought of the commentary last nite? Personally I thought gtr 3123 did nicely and was a plus to the broadcast. If anyone else would like to try their hand at guest commenting, you will need a pc, webcam and skype.

I meant to post some feed-back for you yesterday....I watched the stream a half dozen times and shared it with at least a dozen people.

I told most of them to FFWD to 2hours:36min to watch the night's most entertaining race.
The ones who replied to me said they loved everything about it.

& I absolutely loved yours and @gtr3123 's commentary too!
You guys did a spectacular job in the face of serious down time, and I thought you and @gtr3123 had great chemistry together.
Great person to bring on.

Not only was the commentary professional and informative, but GTR was quite hilarious at times, lol......with his Ooooh's and erggghhh noises lmaooo... As well as interesting and relevant Tangents and tips from his vast D1 experience.

You guys were Just as entertaining as David Hobbs and Steve Matchett with F1 on NBC.


Your commentary is the cherry on the cake, when we have such amazing racing going on,
like last Sunday.



MikeGrove and a few other guys were running 1:27s so that's where I will need to get to.:banghead:

I'll get there.

All about braking earlier, and entering the corner at the perfect speeds.


slower in, & faster out was the case with that Caterham



I'm D2 and I have always used the standard lock settings on the G27 except for when driving a Formula 1 car like the Lotus 97T.

I noticed a small change when adjusting the sensitivity from -2 to 0 on my G27, but maybe that was all in my head.

Idk if the D1 guys will share that info lol.


@Unknown_Male We need to figure out how to change your degrees ASAP!!!!

Yeah, I'm looking back for your instructional post now so I can save it to a word document. I will make that a priority the next time I get to play. I won't be racing unless I'm adequately prepared this Sunday. I am getting tired of screwing up on reverse grid and hurting other peoples' races. If I get the chance to practice enough, I'll plan to see you Sunday for some competitive racing.

Welcome to the SNAIL Media Thread!

Feel free to use that thread to post all of your favorite images and videos from Sunday night races, other SNAIL sanctioned events, or maybe some meetups with other SNAIL members! Feel free to drop a link here to a post in that thread. Because it's a dedicated media thread, no need to use the SPOILER feature! Going there to see the images and videos means you should expect some slower loading times to see the great work everyone here does. Post away!
I would still suggest using the spoiler function with a cover photo. It makes everything work so much smoother!
 
Posting rules changed then. Max 3 images outside of the spoiler function. Posting more than 3 images? Put the rest inside spoiler tags. See first post of it for help. Do not double or triple post to abuse the rules.
 
Ya'll know, we Snails have a tendency to punch, kick, stab, chew or otherwise harangue each other but, if anyone wants to know just what SNAIL is all about, this,

So I broke my brake pedal last night while Pack Racing.. This may be a long shot but, does anyone have an older wheel/pedal set laying around that they'd want to sell to me cheap-ish? If not, I'll be done with racing for awhile until I can buy a 27 or something.

Thanks in advance if someone steps up! If not, it was a true joy racing with y'all for the last few months . I've never ran across a community quite like this one.

You can PM me or quote/post here if you're willing to help.

Sir, if it is just the black plastic piece under the medal section ......... use the Clutch part (if you don't use the clutch, that is). But you more than likely would have already considered that solution.

I have some parts from previous sets. What happened to the brake pedal and what would you need to fix it? What model is it? I may have a replacement in the rafters.

Its the driving force pro (old and junk) when I opened it up this morning it showed me that I broke the bracket where the springs sit and when it over rotated it also broke the electrical connector on the wiring. So its toast lol

I make no promises until I look through a couple of boxes but I think I have an old driving force pro. If I can find it,you're welcome to the whole thing if you will pay for shipping.

Hi @Adramike , I have a complete Driving Force set and could ship you the pedals over the pond at your costs, but I guess if @JLBowler has one it will be cheaper shipping costs, pls don't hesitate to pm me in case of ;)

I will probably have an extra pedal set here in a week or 2. G27 pedals. Just waiting on a warranty replacement.

And if you can't find it, I think I have one downstairs that hasn't been used in quite some time and I'm quite a bit closer.

is what SNAIL is about.

Hope I didn't miss anyone up there.



I'm fairly sure this is the best community I have ever been a part of. After breaking my pedals last week during Pack Racing an out pouring of support came from around the world and Snail. Today I'm so happy to announce that my replacement has arrived at my door step. So a HUGE thank you goes out to @fzappa for my new G27 that he sent me! Words cannot begin to express how I'm feeling right now, this is undoubtedly the most generous thing that has ever happened to me via a stranger. This man, whom I'm fairly sure I've never even turned a lap with is the epitome of what a human being should be like.

We may argue and run each other off the track and file stupid IR's out of anger, but deep down we all love each other. So thank you from the bottom of my heart to @fzappa and the Snail community as a whole. This is truly something I will remember for the rest of my days.


Edit note: I totally screwed up that post, but y'all get the jist of it.



This is what I love about this community,the camaraderie is unmatched anywhere!Thanks for the share @Adramike
 
D2 data is in. Congrats again to Xrad-11 for continuing his winning streak which even with still 1 more week to go has just about guaranteed him the August season win.

It was night of close and exciting racing with the 3 Pole Positions achieved by 3 different drivers, 3 races being won by less than a second, 4 different drivers posting fastest race laptimes and 7 of the 8 competitors reaching the podium.

What's with all the Japanese cars having 276 HP? It's like they had some gentlemens agreement like Germany to not go over 155mph
