Anyone going to open up a warmup lobby tonight? We all know me hosting one isn't really ideal.

Give me some minutes, I’ll give it a try.

Very nice catch there Erick.
If you would have blocked all of the information I would have assumed that was a typical @Kgffy on controller moment.

Sad to miss last night, I'll get back on there next weekend.

And then, there's this other guy in D1, who, after announcing at about 20 after, "I gotta buy the car" (paraphrased), rejoins the lobby with about 5 minutes to spare and throws this down in Round 1 Race 1.

Yeah, @Nicktune . Sorry? I just don't really think you were. 😛

 

[Worst_Driver]

A very strong start of the March season in D1. Three challenging but very different combos and another double digit grid. Thank you guys for coming out to race ! It's always a pleasure and we had a couple of laughs in the chat.

Spoiler: D1 photos

Like @Dragonwhisky said in his post, here you can see @Nicktune already running away from the pack in his brand new never driven Z4.

Those of you that know my tastes in cars might have guessed that this combo was my favorite of the bunch. That little Z4 slides around but you can easily catch the slide with a dab of opposite lock.

I managed to stay in front of @ErickGaToRR for almost half of the race. We traded positions multiple times but he clearly had a faster pace and at one point it was clear that I couldn't resist anymore. Peak racecraft, it was amazing to fight cleanly and respectfully wih you !

Last lap coming into the final corners, three wide with @ErickGaToRR and @Nicktune showed up at the last minute to take first place at the very end. I messed up the corner leading to the back straight which opened the door to Erick and Nick to catch up.

This was easily the best reverse race of the year so far. Battle for third place between @Nicktune @bublyman and myself. Surprisingly, the mid pack was pretty close together and provided good on track action even though we had a highly powerful car to handle.

There is still a day of excitement left in Donkey Kong Challenge 2507.

9. Tex_Hill ---------- voted to eliminate Round 1

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 2 - BMW M4 Gr.4 (RH) at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta - S18 Late Morning (11 laps)
Therefore, the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. @Nicktune wins Prize A, and gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE Package '18 (SS) at Watkins Glen International Long Course - S06 Twilight (8 laps)
This means either the car or track will be replaced for next week's line-up. @racingchamp30 is the Prize B winner and they have the option to freeze the car or the track, or they can give that option to the Prize C winner. If they give the freeze away, they get 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 @ErickGaToRR - they get 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's confirmed you don't have any penalties. Also, it's recommended you review the SNAIL combo history and other data on our car and track history, to see how many times we've raced each car and track. Please remember, originality is always appreciated. Although not required, picking cars and tracks we've never raced is a plus. What's more important is, you thoroughly test any combo 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 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 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 Preset Weather and the Time of the Day (e.g: S01 Afternoon) or else it will be left to default. Available settings can be found under Time/Weather Settings, when creating an online Lobby, after selecting your track.

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

Track Selection Guidelines
