I checked every possible approach to Upload the Livery and make it visible. All appeared correctly "On my screen" - but apparently was not the case on the system.
I have deleted every single duplicated car in the Garage - and delete every Gift Car if I already have it. Guess that wasn't the problem.
Very disappointing, but a trivial matter.

You should try making a simple livery without decals, just white with blue wheels and see if it works correctly. If it does, then slowly start adding decals. It may be one element of the livery the system doesn't like causing the issue.

I have had decals go missing from cars for some strange reason and had to remake new versions of them. One of those decals was the word "Racing", don't know why. but it just disappeared after a couple of weeks.
 
Sunday line up

I will not be available to host for practicing tonight but will be able to join practice if i make it back in time. Having an event at our local church in the evening so should be back in time to join practice. I might be able to be back in time to host but putting this out for someone to host D2-D3 practice just in case i don't make it back in time to open up a practice room at the usual time.
 
@SAMHAIN85
Can you share your replay of your Gardens race yesterday?
I was watching Nico's stream - saw you qualify near the back but finished in 8th?? How did you manage that. I want to see...

Great race, that lobby was stacked.

Ha, I was watching from Z28’s stream. Sam was right behind a great battle between Z28 and gtr towards the end.

It’s great to see that the best of SNAIL can hang with the best of the best.

Thanks guys! That was my first time ever racing with those guys. ORMA SNOW/NicoR was running 36's - thats insanely fast :boggled:

Qually was no good. I got held up in a few key spots on track and then when I finally did get some space, I would fudge it up (mainly on the fast S turns)

I have plenty of experience on the track thanks to our successful Survivor event, but with the Gr.4 Viper on that track not so much.


Knowing how ridiculous the penalities were, my goal was just to run a clean steady race and thats what I managed to do. Didnt get any penalties and made up a few spots by just drafting and short shifting early in the race.

Happy with the result in a room full of sharks. I'll upload the replay later @Sean Renon just look under my activity.

Do we have any takers to host D2/D3 practice tonight if Champ doesnt make it back in time? Assuming we need two lobbies. Last week we merged after combo 1.
 
Hey y'all I'm still around and lurking. Just a little update on my end here. We closed on our first ever house last Friday and have spent the week scrambling to pack our apartment and paint the new place. Moving this Saturday (in the middle of a heat wave here in Michigan), I should be making my return on either the 8th or 15th of July as long as most of my stuff is unpacked and Xfinity is set up. Looking forward to getting back on the track with yall!
 


Is the boost generated by braking via hybrid system?
Can he use it on demand or does it start boosting as soon as he's off the brake?
I've seen folks in the forums mentioning the hybrid boost on the 919 in GTS. Obviously there's no "boost button" in game, so how is it in play?

I was wondering the same thing while watching the video. Figured it was being recharged during braking, even though it didn't seem to fully correspond to braking and when it pop up during an extended acceleration period (2:47 in video), wondered just what was going on. Found this article on how the system works. The hybrid system is actually two systems, one for braking and one using the exhaust.

To answer your question, yes the driver can use it on demand by pressing a button.
 
ORGANIZATIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT

I'd like to take a moment to announce a new addition to our Board of Directors. Since last year, this gentleman has been working (mostly behind-the-scenes) to help SNAIL recruit new members, develop new ideas, and improve on old ones. Simply put, he's been on a mission to make SNAIL the best it can be - all without wanting any recognition for his efforts. In fact, he's flooded the BOD with so many ideas and suggestions, that we've only been able to get to a fraction of them so far. He'll certainly be an injection of fresh ideas and creative energy into the BOD (not to mention he's fast as heck!)

Please join me in welcoming @SAMHAIN85 to the SNAIL Board of Directors: :cheers:
