The race craft in D1 last night was the best I've seen in a long time. The usual turn 1 chaos was relatively tame, and the rest of each race was squeaky clean from my perspective. I was particularly impressed by @todally_lit, @Timlour, and @Nicktune.

Normally my eyes are glued to the radar at turn-in as I'm expecting an aggressive move, but there was a lot of patience last night. Very enjoyable and I'm looking forward to next week.

I'm glad you think so @BradESPN !! Great racing with you last night as well.
 
I was thinking about that and forgot look prior to my post.
Never mind.
***Edit. I just looked at the steward review sheet. 3 IR’s filed, with 2 of those being self reported.
Compared to last weeks 10, I’d say small victory.

That's a good place to start looking but it's not the only source that can be used for evaluating the quality of racing.
 
D2 hosting, replays and data are entered/shared. Some pics from tonight:

That was some really great racing last night. I knew I was only going to have one chance on that last lap to attempt a pass so I tried to set it up in that first turn, but you defended really well and I just couldn’t catch up after. Really awesome driving 👍

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - CHEVROLET CORVETTE C7 GR.3 (RH) at Fuji International Speedway (Short) - 06:15 Clear (7 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @Akzl298 wins Prize A, he gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - FORD FOCUS GR.B RALLY CAR (RH) at Alsace - Village II - 09:00 Cloudy (5 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @SAMHAIN85 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 @Noob01_lmdead 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 choose the Amuse Superlegara as your car selection, post "Amuse Nismo 380 RS Superlagara". If you want to select Monza for your track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". This makes it much easier for the lineup to be updated accurately and helps avoid confusion. Also, please be sure to list the PP and HP (after oil change) of any car you select. For track selections, include the time of day or else it will be left to default.

Car Selection Guidelines
See Section 3 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

Looks like were getting Goodwood Circuit in a future update. Everyone probably remembers the hill climb layout, but when I saw that there's also a proper circuit as well I instantly thought of Ascari.

I'm sure the stewards are still having nightmares of that track. Fortunately for them I dont think we'll have any issues with track limits this go around.

Ascari can kiss my........foot. Yeah, we'll go with kiss my foot. I'm so glad that piece of garbage was never chosen again and then dropped for GTSport.

Just a heads up. Steward update and prize information will be coming in a little bit. It's looking like a crazy day at work starting with a meeting that was scheduled last minute.

Side by side into turn 1/2 first race at Interlagos was tense, I think our doors kissed a little at times, but we got through.

***Edit. I just looked at the steward review sheet. 3 IR’s filed, with 2 of those being self reported.
Compared to last weeks 10, I’d say small victory.

Unfortunately a bunch of late IR's filed last night brings the weekly back up to 10, same as last week.

The target deadline for the Steward Reviews, this week, is Wednesday night by 10PM Eastern. The Steward Summary will be posted as soon as possible, following completion of reviews.
:@: SNAIL Stewards, please make your way to The Incident Review Scoring.​
The IR Submission Form is now closed.

A conversation will be started will all potential prize winners for this week in the next few minutes.
