This is pretty much as close as you can get without touching the other car

BMW at Rome Reverse:

Believe it or not, this was Goat's best side by the end of race 1 :/

[Wolfsatz]

We generally use the D1, D2, and D3 lounges when we want to get together for something. Click here to see how each lounge is used and then send an FR to any lounge you want access to.

Oh, you know, just the Ferrari F10 at Spa.

I'm too excited for the summer break to be over...

Perfect. Doesn't get much better than that.

I should stick to my usual darker colors.

Was actually thinking Monaco because we apparently haven't done it but hardly any passing opportunities. Muhuhahahwa Eau Rouge in 7th gear.

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Better to give everyone some space.
Always 7th gear wot!

Jazz/Joe, please try the F10 in STOCK trim before picking it! When I did my first couple of laps for the WRS it was horrible stock... The diff is way too tight, especially on the over-run.

Has SNAIL ever done an off-road race?

Official Thread of the event

What's up guys...

💡

i'm kinda because of the idea i'm gonna post here, thing is, I would like to iniciate a Seasonal S.N.A.I.L. Event.

I have develop the idea for over two weeks, and I will let you know all things I have setle up until now. I need to know three things, first how many of you would be intrested in participate, how can I improve the idea, and who can help me with some things. (let you know which are those things later) 👍

Hope you like.

Let's begin.

Lets Introduce the Seasonal S.N.A.I.L. X Event.

let's say you are a ProDriver, (or you think you are ) and you have achieved all challenges avaliable, and of course, you're a clean driver... Well, I invite you to put your abilities to the maximum challenge, a Seasonal Championship with 12 races, in extreme conditions, but of course, to make it a real challenge, you need a challenging car, so the car you will be driving, it will be a Redbull Prototype (is open do discuss wich model, but must be a unique model for all drivers).

I'm thinking in this seasonal event to be a way to truly test your driver skills, we all know that there is a huge difference driving in GT5 offline and online, we know our best races have been online, so, everything we know about racing, it will be needed to win.

Thing's we have learn racing with the better league (as I think it is) of GT Planet are needed in order to achieve the goal with this car, because you need to know when to break, when to overtake, you need to be one with the car. That is the only way to win, and not to cause the ultimate crash

but be carefull this car, ain't a easy drive. At the minimal mistake you will get out of track, and maybe, take others out with you.

but there will be a nice reward, to those who dare to achieve the maximum challenge.​

Regulations for this Div.

Boost: Off
Visible Damage: Off
Mechanical Damage: Off
Tire Wear/Fuel Consumption: On
Grip Reduction: Real
Vehicle Tuning: If you can tune this beast, feel free to do so.
Driving Aids: Only ABS allowed.
Tire Restrictions: Racing (compound at your will)
Off course, clean drive. (this one is specially difficult, because the car is too fast, but it can be done) SNAIL Penalization System.
(Car regulations will be posted, when we know the exact Redbull Model)

_________________________________________________________________
Being a Seasonal event, there will be only 12 races of it.

Track selection:

As I said previously, I would like to know who is with me on this one, and who would like to help with some organization things.

Thankyou guys for reading.

Pictures are mine. if you needed, tell me and i'll give you the original ones, without text.

Jazz/Joe, please try the F10 in STOCK trim before picking it! When I did my first couple of laps for the WRS it was horrible stock... The diff is way too tight, especially on the over-run.

Funny thing is that I was racing spec F10 at Spa today and it handles very well. Until lap 10 it does anyway.

 

[tezgm99]

Has SNAIL ever done an off-road race?

Only for cat and mouse I think...the issue with racing on dirt/snow would be the lack of vision I reckon.

Hence why I made this up last week

Well in the freak chance that in a week where my house situation allows me to compete and I somehow get Prize A, I guess I know what kind of track to pick . Also, stock Eagle Talon's on Kart Space I with no aids including ABS is really fun. Just thought I would put that out there in case a winner doesn't have an idea for a combo and would like one.

👍 So long as it's tested first I'm in. Folks are going to have to practice with drafting set to on, these things go quick in the draft and your braking markers go out to lunch

 

[tezgm99]

So do your turn in points

 

[DrKronin]

So do your turn in points

Do what the Moto guys do and pull out of line as you brake to get additional downforce

 

[tezgm99]

Are you sure you don't mean "do what the Moto guys do and high-side it"?

Assuming Moto = MotoGP....

 

[DrKronin]

Are you sure you don't mean "do what the Moto guys do and high-side it"?

Lol! If you can figure out how to high-side the Ferrari, I'll do it.

 

[Apmaddock]

Yeah. A full grid on a dirt track would be hell. I'll resign my stewardship, then.

Speaking of which, the window to post a complaint has closed. There have been complaints made, but none have affected the prize winners, so congrats to them, and you can now claim your prizes.

I wonder what Jazz will pick…

The final points tallies and standings will be posted tomorrow night (I hope) by someone other than me. I'm out of town for three days starting tomorrow morning and most, if not all, of my S.N.A.I.L. activities will be put on hold.

Thanks. Carry on.

 

[JLBowler]

If an F10, or any formula car gets picked, I will be sitting out two races. I refuse to try and drive that thing with a controller.

First F10, then X1's...this is turning into my dream league.

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

If an F10, or any formula car gets picked, I will be sitting out two races. I refuse to try and drive that thing with a controller.

Some of the fastest F1 drivers are ds3 users. The only disadvantage would be tire wear in the course of an doing an hour long race.


Following (drafting) an F1 is very difficult. Definitely pull out of the draft or brake very early for corners.

...and yes it takes a bit of practice just like every other combo. Heck, I found the BMW at Rome/r much more difficult than SPEC F10 at Spa.

 

[Rainmakesars]

X1's still under revision , it hasn't been approved yet .

 

[JazzNine]

Yeah. A full grid on a dirt track would be hell.

Actually Toscana works pretty well. G Trail does too if not for the extreme braking on the downhill section. I was Seriously considering it today lol.

I actually got pretty fast with FGT using the DS3 before I got my wheel. The ability to go lock-to-lock almost instantly (make sure you turn the controller sensitivity up) can almost make up for the disadvantages. Still, I wouldn't go back

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Heck, I'm not saying I"m great at F10 at SPA, but if it helps the league I would spend time with any D4/5 guys on a walk through to show my breaking points etc.

Would we be running zero abs like real F1?
