◆ SNAIL [Spec] Racing - Join now to win a Digit Racing EDGE Masterclass enrollment!!Open

[SoCalRacer310]

Hey SNAIL, why was i relegated back to D5 just because i took April off from GT5? Anyway, in D5 last night i won 3 races and grabbed 1 pole position and earned 91 points. And D5 is filled with very competent, respectful and clean drivers right now and i had a blast. So it's cool. I'll just work my way up thru the ranks the old fashioned way.
Keep up the good work guys!

i vote for you being promoted to d4. i have raced you in many places and you are almost always fast. the fact you took pole in the benz by i think almost a second shows how crazy fast you are for d5. having been in d4 and d5 back and forth i think you qualify for a promotion to d4 immediately. i know we have fast new guys in d5 and speed has picked up but you still will dominate d5.

 

[ExoSphere64]

D4 data complete!!

 

[OwensRacing]

LOL. Yeah, my luck is that my overtake is at the dip just before the screw, then keeping control thru the screw. So, I usually chicken out, play it safe and hope to get another run on the final straight before T1.

Prize B Alert

As bad as I want to take the Z28 to another track, I think zer0 made a typo on the results. I scored 83, not 87. I cannot, in good conscious, accept the prize B choice.

Zero or Cheeb

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

I'm sure Zer0 will be posting an official correction soon. Until then, I guess Worst_Driver should get ready to pick Prize B if I'm ready the results correctly.

 

[iroquois]

Zero & Kcheeb, i know it's a lot of work to relegate & promote drivers every month. And honestly i don't remember if i raced that first week in April or not. I thought i did not, but let's not worry about it now. The new Season has started and like i said, D5 is a lot of fun right now. I will post my new combo shortly. And seriously, again, thanks for all the hard work.

Driftin finally has an excuse to use this car!

 

[Wolfsatz]

And the wife doesn't want the TV taken up all the time because she wants to watch her shows sometimes...so I can only turn it on during very specific times

I can relate to this very much. Joe and I are part of the same club 👍

For Prize A Combo I choose the Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 TC @ Spa.

What are you lap times on this one? Love the track; I don't think I've ever used this car at all before. Good choice though!

Prize B Alert

I know what happened, I corrected the Results sheet not the Directors doc. zer0 used the Directors doc to post the results from.

zer0, I've corrected the Directors doc if you can post the corrected results.

Division Driver Adjusted Points
D5 iroquois-- 91.81
D1 GTP_Worst_Driver 84.68
D3 Oshawa-Joe 82.55

 

[Worst_Driver]

That means I got prize B ???

 

[Luv2Coach]

I can relate to this very much. Joe and I are part of the same club 👍

Make that the three of us. That's why I am only able to practice Wed and race Sun. No mas. LOL

 

[Luv2Coach]

That means I got prize B ???

Yes sir. Had I not looked at the "for detailed results click here" on the unofficial results, I would have missed it. The little red guy on my shoulder was whispering, "no one will notice till it's too late, take the Z28 to another track". But then, the little guy in white on my other shoulder reminded me that wouldn't be such a good idea. I prefer white...

Looking forward to your selection Worst, 👍 whatever it is...

A couple of pics from RUFTARN, sorry for the quality im not a professional photographer lol.

Your Tuesday Morning Steward Update​

This week's prize winners are clear to make their selections. Great work, and congratulations to everyone.👍

For Prize A Combo I choose the Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 TC @ Spa.

You pulled the trigger a little early Iroquois.

Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your car and/or track selection until all racing complaints are filed and the results are made official.

Regardless, are you still going with this selection?

Okay, I'll correct it as soon as I can get to a computer. Not gonna even try doing that from my phone.

 

[JLBowler]

Please read this. If you are in D2 or D5 and you can't follow these instructions you are in danger of not having your complaint forwarded on to the stewards. To summarize, you should put all the required information into ONE pm and send it to the division steward AND the driver you are complaining about.

This is copied from the post that Zer05ive links every week.

How to file a Racing Complaint

This process has been adapted from the GTP OLR Rules (Section 17), but simplified and made more applicable to our league. Failure to complete all seven of the steps below will result in your complaint not being an official complaint. Therefore, do not expect any action to be taken if you don't follow these steps thoroughly.

All complaints relating to a racing incident must follow this procedure:

1. Contact your Division Steward with a PM by 10pm Eastern / 7pm Pacific on Monday night
   • The Division Steward for D1 drivers is dabneyd
   • The Division Steward for D2 drivers is JLBowler
   • The Division Steward for D3 drivers is DrKronin
   • The Division Steward for D4 drivers is Handlebar
   • The Division Steward for D5 drivers is JLBowler
2. Add the driver you're filing a complaint against as a 'Recipient' on the PM (this is the most important step!)
3. Name PM subject title 'Racing Complaint'
4. Supply Round # and Race #
5. Supply lap number
6. Supply time of incident
7. Supply details and any other relevant information relating to the incident

Our stewards will then review the reported incident(s) and determine what penalties, if any, are appropriate.

In case the procedure regarding race incidents is not followed and the driver decides to discuss the racing incident in public here on the S.N.A.I.L. forum, the driver may be given a warning or an infraction (in case of repetition or blunt accusations) by one of the S.N.A.I.L. admins.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are the recipient of a racing complaint, feel free to tell "your side of the story" to your Division Steward so that he can relay it to the rest of the stewards who will be reviewing the incident. There is no need to reply to the driver who filed the complaint against you unless you want to and are able to do so in a completely non-confrontational manner.

It's from the OCD, so no need to break it in. You're welcome.

Okay, the results post has been corrected. Along with updating the prize winners as discussed on the thread, I've also made a small correction to the D4 results of which I was notified via PM. Please let me know if anyone sees an other errors that need to be corrected.

This is genius! not having to break in the cars! Just oil up and give it your paint scheme. 👍👍👍

Should be a fun car too!

 

[zer05ive]

Don't have a car pic yet.

Thanks for the pic, Dragon! Should I take your post to mean that you're going to get a pic, or were you hoping that someone would provide one? I'll wait to see if any pics are posted by the time I get back home so that I can update the lineup post accordingly. 👍

Perhaps we should have an official lineup photographer? 💡

Hey everyone,

Been busy adding some more fun numbers to the spreadsheet. More is better right

I added a grid showing the Total Time rankings beside the Fast Lap ranking grid. And, borrowing an awesome idea from JobyOne, I included Average MPH at the end of the grid. You can see it here.

I also added a track length column to the Car/Track Information tab of the spreadsheet.

I'm pretty sure I have it right but if the track lengths are off or my calculation for MPH is out of whack, let me know.

EDIT: Looks like another fun Sunday racing in S.N.A.I.L. liking the choices 👍

 

[OwensRacing]

RUFTARN ???

Who's ready for some action tonight?

This guy is stoked!

Anyone wanna set the races up before hitting the room?

Also thinking maybe the 525 Redneck cars need to pre 93 aka 20yrs old this would get some of older cars involved.

585 Redneck cars open year.

I don't think I'll be able to make it tonight if we do have it. Busy with personal projects to probably add a new event to SNAIL and working on some tunes for fun. If we have RUFTARN on Friday though, I'll be there to demolish the rednecks!
