That is my groove for this week. Thanks to the D4 gang and all who keep this going. I also want to pile in a special welcome to Jester into the D4 fold. You raced well and we truly appreciate your photography! Excellent work! Since Wolf left, we have been picture barren... Jester and Wolf are doing so well with the photo scene, I would love to see a SNAIL photo competition develop in the future! (I have some ideas on this too!)

Good night gentlemen and look forward to seeing you on the track!!

Thanks Exo. Glad you liked the pics. Wolf is the master at capturing great action shots. Looking forward to some more D4 action this Sunday.
 
What is the correct way to take the jump in the Integra? I wreck 3 out of 5 laps.

just try not to let your car go sideways and turn mid-air. easier said than done.

no problem zero. i was running on sh last night and i was wondering why coach's lap times were 5 seconds faster than mine. running the integra on sports hard is no fun

I just created a account on photo bucket and I need to know what URL I need to write for sending on gtp

Go to your library in photo bucket and find the little cog icon in the top right corner of the pic. Click get links then use the bottom link that is for board and forum posts. It is now copied to your clipboard. After that paste it directly into the post. Don't use the in post add photo feature.

Hope that helps
 
Each picture will have a set links. Use the [ img ] link. Click it. It will instantly copy. Then paste here. :)
 

Yea get now the UrL thank you guys. But now the problem is that pic are from my phone. Do I need to reduce the pic or doing something on it? Because my pic said error

Strange. Almost all my pics linked in last two years have been taken and uploaded to photobucket from my phone.

Assume you are using the app. Be sure you got permissions set to share and all that.

I haven't tried that combo yet, but when I've had problems with that jump, there are a couple of things I try. First, try lifting right before the jump to see if that settles it down. If that doesn't work, I might try a light tap of the brake as you lift off the ground. If you're still having trouble, I'd likely start playing with brake bias to see if increasing the rear helps me catch the car upon landing with just a little bit of brake input.

But most important is to hit the jump squarely. That isn't always easy in a race, but the straighter you land, the better.

I just ran some laps and for whatever reason the Integra likes to kick the back end out on landing. It's not a problem if you expect it and make sure to land with enough room that you don't catch the grass, but still kind of a wierd quirk.
 
Can someone else host the RED practice room tonight? I am not sure if I can open the room on time.
 
Skills,

On the Integra on the Cape Ring jump, I lifted for a moment - maybe as much as a half second? - and came in pretty stable. I tried a tap on the brakes before the jump, it stabilized but absolutely crushed my speed.
 
For return to the complaints subject. File a complaint become very hard for much people to do when they got so much respect for each others. Sometimes you heart say no. Lol . I would like to know how I can deal with that and how you deal with that.
 
If you think someone did something that you believe was probably wrong - more getting ahead at all costs rather than by good racecraft, or displays a lack of situational awareness that diminishes clean racing for others, file an inquiry, or an after-action-review, or a complaint - it's all the same.

An inquiry PM is not a personal attack. The review process is the pursuit of an ever cleaner racing environment in SNAIL and racing series most everywhere. Clean up negative actions, educate to avoid these events if the driver need that. That's why we're here, I believe. Clean racing.

Probation is meant to have the driver pay attention and to improve to the behavior at issue. We want to encourage good behaviors. If a driver was too aggressive and lost points, the probation time is to focus on a balance of aggression vs. safe distance. If a driver lost from not being aware of other cars, left, right, or wherever, then the focus of that probation is to avoid those situations, to develop more situational awareness.

Probation is not a time where everyone is watching every race or move a driver makes.

Do you think that it would be easier to report a racing incident if the whole process were anonymous? I wish that we could do it like F1 does (announcing an investigation into an incident and then announcing any penalties) but that would mean watching every race from (nearly) every point of view.

I was not talking for this week or last week or a complaint situation to do but in general. I will give you a exemple. You had a issue with Kcheeb and you know how hes clean and you respect him so much and you have to put a complaint on him (its a exemple: kcheeb will do automatic if he were wrong). Im sure handlebar you will get pretty sick to put a complaint on your best buddy and 50% of the chance you won't do. Right?
