A quick update. When I went out around 12, we were under caution and the boost was only putting out 2 pounds, when it should have been 10. Brought the car in and the bracket to the wastegate was broken. We've been in the garage since and are nearly done putting the wastegate back in. We had to fab up a new bracket and do some welding to get it fixed.

I'll be heading back out in maybe the next 15 minutes, I hope. I think I'll get to race for 45 minutes or so.

Race-monitor.com has live timing and we are way back. Thanks for your support.

Day 1 is over and didn't end the way we wanted. Before fixing the bracket, we were around 46th of 96 cars. After we fixed the bracket, I went back out. On my 8th lap, the car started misfiring coming out of the boot. So I brought it directly to the pit. Had a spark plug wire come off, but also the water temp was pegged. The radiator failed. We had another so we replaced it and started it back up, but it wasn't good. Took off the head and we're in the middle of it all now. Hopefully we'll be able to get her fixed for tomorrow.
 
Every event In Snail is at roughly that time Monday to Sunday. If you are looking for something that happens at say 9pm your time we don't have anything like that... sorry.
I'm cool with that; I'm just wondering if I had to run every event or any until I can.
 
I'd like to join SNAIL, although I'm not sure as to how many events I can join as I live in Europe.

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:

Thrustmaster T300 on sale, not sure how long.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O8B7D02/?tag=gtplanet-20

Looks like a good deal for sure. If there is no need at the moment for the wheel, people may want to wait for a bit. With a new wheel in the case at the GTSport event, I would think there may be a full release at E3 or shortly after. The T300 will probably get reduced further and of course you'd have the option of their newest wheel. This is all speculation of course.

Amazon ca has it for $419.99, which is only slightly more than the US$300 with our **** exchange right now.
However, the G29 is on sale for $349 which is getting close to a good deal.
 
Can't you just get a US account or have a friend in the US buy it with your shipping address? Send them money through Pay Pal and have it exchanged, etc...? I honestly don't know how this works.
