Hey. I've had a couple friends recommend this league to me. Do you guys have room for yet another driver?

@terrordog1490

Here's your official SNAIL Welcome Post!
Thanks for your interest!
Here's what you need to know (and do) in order to join SNAIL Racing League:

We run a clean league by enforcing a strict penalty system based on the SNAIL 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 start a conversation and add @CoachMK21, @JLBowler, @nmcp1 & @zer05ive as participants. The conversation title should be "Request To Join".

2. SNAIL Administrators will respond with specific instructions on what you need to accomplish to join the SNAIL [Spec] Racing club. Sunday races are organized exclusively through the GT6 Community features within the game.

3. Place the following links (URLs) in the favorites (or bookmarks) in your web browser for quick reference. Please make every effort to read and understand the following links. Over the years a great deal of time and effort has gone into creating this league and we would like nothing more than to have you but we ask that you take the time and effort to do your homework. 99.9% of any question you may have about SNAIL can be found in the posts below.
4. You drive fast and clean on Sunday 👍

Again, 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. If you have a preference for car/wheel colour and racing number, please follow the instruction contained here.

During the week we run a number of different events, we encourage all SNAILs to join as many as possible.
Welcome to SNAIL :cheers:

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - Tommykaira ZZ-S '00 (Sports: Medium) at Indianapolis Road Course (6 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @Whitey093 wins Prize A, he gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - RUF CTR "Yellow Bird" '87 (Sports: Soft) at Mid-Field Raceway / Forward (9 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @Alex ONeill gets Prize B, he has the option to freeze the car or the track, or he can give that option to the Prize C winner. If he gives the freeze away, then he gets to decide what car or track replaces the part of the combo that is left unfrozen by the Prize C winner.

Prize C goes to @Ricky_Blayz so he gets whichever option the Prize B winner does not select.

Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your prize selection until all incident reports have been filed and it has been confirmed that you don't have any penalties. It's also recommended that you review the SNAIL combo history and other data on our car and track history so that you can get an idea how many times we've raced each car and track. Please remember that originality is always appreciated, so picking cars and tracks that we've never raced is a plus (but not required). What's more important is that you thoroughly test any combo that you are considering before making it your official selection. For example, any car you select should not hit its rev limiter at any point during a race (even in the draft).

IMPORTANT: When posting your Prize A or Prize B selection, please list the complete in-game name of the car and/or track you are selecting. For example, if you want to select the Amuse Superlegara for your car, post "Amuse Nismo 380 RS Superlagara". If you want to select Monza for a track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". This makes it much easier for the lineup to be updated accurately and also prevents confusing other league members as to which car or track you are selecting. Also, please be sure to list the PP and HP (after oil change) of any car you select.

Car Selection Guidelines
Dealership Cars - The maximum price for a selected car is now $1,000,000
DLC Cars - Only DLC cars that are FREE and currently still available in the PlayStation Store can be selected.

Track Selection Guidelines
Any non-DLC track can be selected as long as a single lap with the car combo'd with it would not take more than five minutes to complete. For example, don't select anything that includes the Nurburgring's Nordschleife.
 
I am going to pass to Ricky Blayz

You will have to wait before you can do that. While you're waiting, I suggest you re-read this portion of zer05ive's post.

Currently tracking 17 Incident Reports

We have at least one prize winner with a racing incident being investigated by the stewards. This may, obviously, change the order of the prizes to be selected. All winners are asked to refrain from making selections until the Weekly Steward's report has been posted.
The target deadline for the Steward Reviews, this week, is Wednesday night by 10PM Eastern. The Steward Summary will be posted as soon as possible, following completion of reviews.
:@: SNAIL Stewards, please make your way to The Incident Review Scoring.​
The IR Submission Form is now closed.

@Whitey093 you are clear to make your prize A selection.
@Alex ONeill you are clear to use the freeze or pass it if you wish.
@Ricky_Blayz you must wait for the steward report.

Dammit is it still happening ? Any news or ideas on if or when it might stop?

I will pass the freeze.
 
I'll try to keep this concise. I haven't been enjoying myself in the S.N.A.I.L. races recently, for over a month. So I've thought about it some and decided that I'm dropping out of the league. This is not the fault of anyone. I've been bumped and spun a few times but I don't hold on to things like that since it happens so much outside of the league.

I've been slow and off pace and I just haven't been enjoying the races. Along with that, I'm not enjoying Gran Turismo enough to put in more practice than I have been to find those two seconds that I'm constantly missing.

I know very little will change by me leaving but I just didn't want to disappear without reason. This is a great league and I'm very fond of it and the structure of it, but I'm not really enjoying it as much as I would like too.

Sorry to hear that @luchvk. But we all have to do what's in our best interest. If things change in the future, you know where to find us.
 
I've been kicking around combo ideas in my head and tested a few yesterday. Tonight I'll open a room in the snail club lobby and do some more testing before making my final decision. Feel free to drop in and help test and add your .02 to the final decision.
Do not announce your final decision in the lobby... has a tendency to make it to the thread before you post it.
