On my way running late

 

[Akzl298]

Hosts should start the night's racing at the scheduled time. The only reason to delay the start is to sort connection issues for those that were in the room on time or to give someone who was in the room on time their 3 minutes to return to the lobby

 

[CANOWORMS1]

Where can I find the scoresheets for previous weekends? I can’t remember

 

[racingchamp30]

D2 Replays Uploaded. It was weird even before we were going to start first race of the night, everyone else just dropped out of room with just myself left in the room so i exited the room and created a new room, that fixed whatever issue was happening.

[Rob Brown]

Would love to see a bunch of people come out for this final season!!!

Could it be right? Kinda figured there may be a buffer between GT7 debut and SNAIL using it on Sunday. The question: is this buffer period undecided or depending on some brief test period? (Test period more for the SNAIL record keeping and perhaps other tid-bits).

Spoiler

 

[racingchamp30]

State of play event for GT7 will be February 2nd around 4PM Central. Looks like they will explore the career and verify that the game will be released March 4th.

[Worst_Driver]

Already asked my day off for march 4th. My body is ready.

 

[IceWarden]

I just hope it’s not too time intensive to get a decent amount of cars and cash for future cars.

Anyone have any solutions for sim rig/chair sliding on hard floor while racing? I moved from a place that had carpet so this wasn't an issue before now. My chair doesn't have wheels, but the feet are smooth plastic. The feet on my rig are a smooth rubbery plastic material, it holds better than my chair but still moves under hard braking.

I tried Gorilla non-slip rubber furniture pads, they worked great for all of 5 min before they started peeling themselves off my chair and rig, leaving me with a gooey adhesive mess on all 8 feet for me to clean up.

Any help or advice would be great

Here’s some pics that might help

Being the cheap guy I am…I would run a pair of tie down straps from the chair to the rig to keep the rig from moving away from you.

That's actually a pretty good idea. Attaching them together would work. I don't have any tie-down straps, but maybe I can MacGyver something. If all else fails then I guess I finally have a reason to own some tie-down straps haha

I had a similar situation while running a practice lobby. I went for a smoke and when I got back everyone had exited. When I found them again they said I just disappeared, so I think it was somehow connected to my connection and maybe not just my cache. And I did notice at Spa you had some serious lag. There was a time when I was behind you and in my world you jumped behind me, then way out front, then right in front of me. I do know my internet will, at times, perform way below it's norm.

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - AMUSE S2000 GT1 TURBO (RH) at Circuit de Sainte-Croix - B - 07:10 Clear (7 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @Rob Brown 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 - FERRARI 365 GTB4 1971 (SS) at Autódromo De Interlagos - 09:15 Clear (9 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @Nicktune 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 @Phlano099 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/or 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 must not hit its rev limiter at any point during a race (even in a 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 Integra Type R as your car selection, post "Honda Integra Type R (DC2) '98". If you want to select Monza for your track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". Being specific helps us to update the lineup accurately and also helps avoid any confusion among the drivers. Also, please be sure to list the HP and Weight (LBS) of any car you select. For track selections, include the time of day (e.g: 09:00 Clear) or else it will be left to default.
