Sunday Night Scoring sheets have been created for tonight.

Good racing all!

 

[Wolfsatz]

Yeah... really. A fish slap or the addition of a smiley would have better hinted toward lighthearted rib-jabbing, but I read your post as very dry, straight to business & condescending in nature. If your intention was a simple poke I apologize, but it didn't come off that way at all.

(will use more emoticons next time to sugar coat it) LOL

Breaking Point Tips:
Perhaps the most critical to get right. Blachimont straight, need to start breaking before the 150m marker somewhere in between the overhead sign and the 150m marker; it depends on how fast and how right you get the turn 17 Blanchimont.

Another easy one to miss. Straight after Les Comes and before Rivage. Most race cars and street cars you use the start of the rumble strip as a marker to start breaking. With the Nardo, this is way too late and you'll end up in teh kitty litter. Need to start breaking at or right before the 100m marker.

Main Straight another 100m marker or before if you want to make it safely

... And the one where you may have some traffic. With draft speed you are reaching close to 190mph, hit the brakes before or right about the 200m marker and keep the car straight as it wiggle the tail around.

I was quite sick......and I am better but still sick.....

@Wolfsatz cheers for the braking point guide.

 

[MikeGrove]

Here is to hoping that I'm selected for the Beta! My ps4 is tired of Skyrim and Battlefield 1. It needs some racing that isn't Project Cars!

How do you think they choose who gets to try it?

When do you guys think a release date will be announced for that sexy new direct drive Thrustmaster wheel?

Hosts may start the night's racing at the scheduled time.

 

[SAMHAIN85]

Currently have 5 people in D1. Should we wait a few more minutes to give people a chance to join? @JLBowler

No. No host should ever wait to start the night for anyone who hasn't already entered the room. The only time to hold the start is if someone has been in the room and had to leave to sort connection issues or got disconnected and they are being allowed their 3 minutes to return.

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - Volkswagen W12 Nardò '01 (Racing: Hard) at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps (5 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @Wolfsatz wins Prize A, he gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.
PLEASE NOTE: Since @Wolfsatz has already won Prize A this season, he is ineligible to win it again until next season. This means that unless he loses Prize A due to incident reviews, any driver who competed in Division 2 on Sunday night will have the opportunity to suggest an entirely new car and track combo. I recommend that all D2 drivers from Sunday night start thinking about combos they would like to suggest. That way, you will be ready to post it if/when @JLBowler gives the "all clear". Also, please be sure to only suggest one combo. Any driver who suggests more than one combo will automatically be ineligible to suggest any combos at all. Please don't let that happen to you. Only suggest ONE combo (but not until @Wolfsatz is confirmed as the Prize A winner).

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 2 - Nissan SKYLINE GT-R R33 Touring Car (Racing: Hard) at Indianapolis Road Course (7 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @Whitey093 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 @SAMHAIN85 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
See Section 3 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

Track Selection Guidelines
See Section 3.1 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

Which means I'm getting snow in a few hours tops

 

[JLBowler]

If you raced in D2 this week, you get to make one, and only one, suggestion for prize A. This is a car and track combo. @Wolfsatz will be choosing one of these for prize A. You are allowed one suggestion. Multiple suggestions, changing your suggestion, or making a suggestion which leaves a question as to what you are suggesting will result in your suggestion being disallowed.

The suggestion period will close at 11:59 PM ET on Tuesday night.

This is not a voting process. If you agree with someones suggestion, you don't need to post it again. All suggestions must be made in this thread or they will not be allowed. This is your chance to interject your opinion about a combo choice so take advantage of the situation.
