ATTENTION ALL HOSTS, DIVISION MANAGERS, AND RACERS
These are the only acceptable lobby settings for use in SNAIL on a Sunday night. If you have saved settings and they are not in line with what is here, go and change them. If you do not used saved settings, I suggest you either have this open on a screen you can see or you print it out and use it as reference. If it's not on this list, it shouldn't be set in your lobby and if it's on this list, it had better be set that way in your lobby.

this post; Effective immediately, any driver competing in the lowest division may request that TCS and/or the Driving Line be allowed. If that request is made, anyone competing in the division at that time may use those aids if they wish. However, drivers who choose to use those aids will become ineligible for promotion to a higher division the following season.
EDIT: As of July 31st, 2015, drivers will be eligible for promotion from the lowest division regardless of their use of TCS and/or the Driving Line. As a reminder, ABS is the only Driving Option allowed in all other divisions.
