ESCarGOT: A Tasty S.N.A.I.L. Event!!! Every Thursday!

[diabolicwyvern]

I'm going to defer my choice to second place. I guess Diabolic can pass his choice down if he wants.

Final standings?? How was the first event scored? Perhaps it should be thrown out with the tire issues?? Or you could give first to the top finisher on sport hard...

 

[racefan78]

Was there a tire issue? If so i would say score only the drivers who ran on the propper tires, if it's not possible to figure that out then drop the event from the scores.

I believe that the people who finished first and second were using sports soft instead of sports hard tyres.

That is correct!

Adjusted for and the results remain the same as Dabney and Diabolic both gained two points.

 

[diabolicwyvern]

What are the results?? Can they be posted here?

You can find them in this spreadsheet.

Copy and paste was not cooperating and I didn't want to re-key them.

Wouldn't diabolic be ahead since the change gives him three wins? Either way, I'll defer to the next person.

True, this is why I don't run a series,

I don't have permission. Don't worry about it. Just tell me the combo I'm messing with and how much messing I can do.

Try it again. You may have to use this link.

Either way, round 1 got the most votes, and round three the second most.

Sorry about the confusion guys, I wish I could have been there to help out, but you know how PSN can be sometimes. Would you like me to go ahead and post the results on the forum, or have you got it sorted out already?

Also, the name change that zero has been wanting has now been made official. This series is now officially called SNAIL ESCarGOT (Every Standard Car Goes on Thursdays). This is intended to give us more branding power as a SNAIL event.

 

[tezgm99]

You got me, racefan. I was looking for about five minutes until I thought 'hmm, maybe the title has changed?' and found this one

 

[diabolicwyvern]

I'll be changing the car in round 3. Testing tomorrow afternoon. Id like us to be in powerful cars, but I don't want there to be much variety to keep it close. We found in combo one that post update the FF bias is Dead, buried, dug up, burned, rebuilt, burned again and finally sent to spend an eternity with Satan.

I'm not sure if that's good nws or not, hahaha.

What is good news (in some ways anyway) is that I'll be back at school this week, where the internet doesn't suck. So I look forward to being able to host this Thursday night event again.

Here's the results from last week:

1. diabolicwyvern - 86
2. dabneyd - 86
3. kcheeb - 81
4. luv2coach - 63
5. wolfsatz - 70
6. tezgm99 - 69
7. drgreenthumb67 - 47
8. ChuthuluGoat -63
9. weaver-2009_ - 53

Diabolic wins because he won three first place finishes. Round 1 got the most votes, so Diabolic gets to change the track and car. Round three got the most votes, and I'm deferring my choice to kcheeb, so he gets to change the car or track.

I've got an idea, but don't want to be strung up for it

The FGT at Motegi Ring or Indy Oval Could make for some tight pack racing and 'I think' you'll have to drive the car at either track. Thoughts?

I am a HUGE fan of oval racing, so I'm up for the challenge if you guys are. 👍

I was actually hoping someone would pick and oval for the FGT!

 

[kcheeb]

Okay, let's go with the FGT at Motegi Ring then 👍

I'm changing Combo 1 to 4wd cars @ Road Course Indy. I'm still working out the best PP to start at to get as many different Nissan, Mitsubishi and Subaru on track. It's going to be somewhere between 445 and 460...just not sure precisely where.

I would lean towards the higher side. Many of those cars get a pretty big horsepower boost from an oil change. Just adding my 2 cents.

... and would also make the NON Japanese 4WDs competitive for those that like German Engineering.

Combo 1
460PP 4wd @ Road Course Indy

At 460pp there are several Impreza, audi, Skyline, Lancer, 3000GT (Only the MR and VR-4)

If we raise it, the field will have more skyline and lancer, but the subaru are gone. As my daily driver is an impreza...this cannot happen!

If we lower it, the field will be just the older versions of the lancer, skyline impreza, but it will gain several of the wagons and audis.

Note: I only have premium Audis, so I'm not sure where they slot in precisely.

 

[tezgm99]

Please tell me your daily driver isn't one of those bug-eyed monstrosities from 2000 and 2001? Any other year is fine, just not those

2006

 

[racefan78]

Ok thanks guys, I'll update the combo post

 

[tezgm99]

That's about the only year that GT5 doesn't have a WRX for, isn't it?

 

[diabolicwyvern]

Probably
