I’m in the Midwest. 8:30 start time. We finish around 10:30. I am usually trying to go to bed around 11. I do however wake up for work at 3:30am. Leaves me with 4-1/2 hours of sleep but I thoroughly enjoy racing with you guys enough and my wife allows it for the time being to take an hour or so nap mid day to get me through the next day. Time change would benefit me tramendously but I’m new and for the sake of the people who call snail life I’m willing to sacrifice each and every week to race them. But if I had to pick I’d say 30 minutes earlier is ok by me or the same time is fine.
 
I know that this debate has happened before,I see both sides and from my perspective we have many who sacrifice sleep ,some on a grand scale to do this thing we do.Especially our brethren across the pond. Have seen some posts from people who would love to join,but aren't willing to make that sacrifice,an earlier start time could bring more to our events.The West coast drivers have enjoyed a really cushy gig,they don't have to stay up late at all,and probably get to pursue other interest's after the races as well as before.I don't see an hour difference causing a collapse of the West coast interests at all.We are talking about Sunday here,not a weekday and there is still Friday nights and Saturdays for family .A 4:00 pm start time would net them an even earlier evening(4:00 open rooms,4:30 start races) giving them a finish time of 7:30 p.m.If its Sunday dinner that needs be taken into account then maybe we do it around 1:00 pm PT Sunday as that is still Sunday night(afternoon).Just my two cents worth.

**NEED HELP PLEASE**
I'm not sure what's going on with my wheel, but I run a G27 through a CronusMax Plus on a PS4Pro and I use the paddle shifter on manual and everytime I use it for extended periods of time, it will just jump into neutral for no reason and the brake is spiked full on for a split second, and then I have to click up or down to get into a gear.
This happens 3-4 times every Sunday night and has cost me big time on the track, as I'm not expecting it.
I've checked that my Cronus Max is up to date, which it is, and I also unplugged the wheel and then calibrated on the PC, and nothing has helped. When I can afford it I'll upgrade to a G29 or T300 but for now if I can't find the solution to this, I may give it up for now, it's just too frustrating.....especially if you're in a battle for position and it happens.....you drop back like a parachute was opened!:banghead:
I've researched the heck out of it, and found one post about someone having the exact same issue 4 days ago, but no replies or fixes have been posted. If anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears.
Your issue is a first. Usual cronus issues im familiar with is controller cutting on and off.
 
Wow i thought gt stopped with the 20 versions of the same car. The track looks fun though but thats to many gtr's. If they do dlc like they have been doing recently then ok cool 20 versions of every car not just the japanese cars.

... not surprised at all.
 
Just finished running the New races in the GT League.

The Gr 2 races are "Fun Work" - and the 25-lap, Gr 3 race at Mt Panorama is challenging to get thru the traffic. I used the Z-4 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Doubt that I can run it "Clean" - just too tight for roomy passing. Though I'm sure other drivers would find it easy.

The GT3 race is a pain to do clean the computer breaks in the wrong points at the top of the hill.
 
I can't imagine anyone here will recall me, but you never know. I stopped playing so long ago, but nostalgia has gotten the best of me.


Miss racing. I recall SNAIL before it was SNAIL. I recall ZERO, Cheeb, myself and a few select others tossing racing slicks on cars and having fun for a couple hours. I'd say I'm surprised it's still going, but I'm not. With how popular this league is still, I'm betting this post will be buried and forgotten. BUT, I did want to say thank you to those who where happy to see my sign in and sad to hear I was leaving.

Since, I've been divorced, remarried and now have 2 kids and another on the way!
I'm a full time Bicycle Mechanic (I know they only have 2 wheels) and run the online and eBay sales for the shops I work for. :)

I'll always remember asking and answering SNAIL questions. I'll remember members thinking I was from another planet.
That I was a Cyborg or must have been for using the D-Pad and automatic transmission from my couch in D1 races. :D

I was called many things on the track and through this forum and while each may have been true in some fashion, only one is 100% certain...

I'm Diabolic!

Cool introduction.

Dont worry, @Kgffy has taken the reigns in that regard and he does a great job with it

Yo sam do u run practice rooms around this time every day?

Not everyday. But plenty of people are on almost daily with a lobby open. Add snails to your friends list from the driver list and you'll be able to see when they have a lobby up in the game

Yeah I'm not even sure if it's a cronus issue or G27 issue? Here is a video of the only other person I've heard of having the exact same issue, and if you go to the last corner of the race in the video (long video so skip ahead to end) this is what's happening to me multiple times a night!
