SNAIL - Endurance Series (Archive)

[Nick Cannella]

it does make that much of a difference sam and neutty were a good 1.5 to 2 seconds faster than me and at the start of the race it is clearly seen that sam and neutty just pull away from me on the straight none the less.

Me personally I have no space to mount one at this time

Thanks for the feedback @Herimopp89

Drivers List For Season 5

#4 - @Sean Renon / MalevolentFather
#5 - @MikeGrove
#12 - @Neutty
#24 - @BradESPN
#36 - @TEX36 / TEX-36
#46 - @THRASH / THRASH_46
#55 - @Herimopp89
#87 - @jerseyjoeaw
#95 - @soundtiger95

With only 9 drivers committed to being full-time, we'll stick to a single division this season. I'm optimistic that we'll still get 10-12 drivers a night consistently with part-time drivers participating occasionally.

In the event that we have more than 16 drivers interested on a given race night, all official drivers will be in their own lobby, with the part-time drivers in their own lobby (otherwise the season standings get messy).

 

[BradESPN]

FYI, I'll definitely have a practice lobby up tonight as I've never driven the new Tokyo track. I'm planning on 8:00 EST at the latest, and I'll of course post here when it's open.

 

[BradESPN]

Season 5 nameplates are available now on my activity feed in game. Congrats to the following drivers who earned decals last season:

Gold: @MikeGrove & @soundtiger95
Silver: @TEX36 & @Sean Renon
Bronze: @Neutty
Black (finished at least 75% of races): @BradESPN & @Herimopp89​

@jerseyjoeaw you have a nameplate now as well (optional to use), and @THRASH, I've updated yours to be D1.

​

I literally just figured out that today isn’t Tuesday I thought yesterday was Monday lol. Anyways, I have class on tuesday nights this semester so I won’t be able to make it for awhile. I’m so butthurt

 

[Sean Renon]

Fun race last night, mentally I was pretty checked out so I was just going for fast laps lol.
I tend to use my mulligan by choice at the start of the season.

You can go sooooo fast through those S bends, but I'm pretty sure I left all the paint behind on the barrier by the time I was done.

That and hearing you get a penalty made my night...that lap was so fast though

 

[Neutty]

Lol party chat was pretty funny.

When you hook up those S bends perfectly with minimal tire wear the result is so much speed.

You had to lift a bit, right? I felt like it was right on the edge of being possible flat out, but couldn't get it without hitting a wall in practice.

Season 5 Standings and Prize Winner Update

​

Prize A - @Neutty - Please make your car and track selection before EOD Friday so that we have time to practice

 

[Sean Renon]

You had to lift a bit, right? I felt like it was right on the edge of being possible flat out, but couldn't get it without hitting a wall in practice.

You have to brake and trail brake into turn 1, but about 1/3 of the way into turn 1 you're flat out. If hit perfectly you can go flat out between 2,3,4. My fastest lap actually had a tiny lift in turn 2 as I came into turn 1 too quick.

My optimal in sector 1 was about 3 tenths faster than the lap I went 1.37.8 on, but I nailed the hairpin on my fast lap and the bus stop was pretty good too.

 

[Neutty]

Samba bus at Tsukuba anyone?

 

[Nick Cannella]

Samba bus at Tsukuba anyone?

I would enter that! Just my style lol

 

[MajorBlixem]

Apologies for not showing up (again) last night. Life is in a bit of a turmoil for me at the moment. Keeping fingers crosses things will settle down soon

Prayers up for you Major

 

[Neutty]

To be perfectly honest.... The selection of tracks we have is an extreme hinder. I can’t find something I personally like other than Tokyo and I know we just ran Tokyo. Idk. May be another Tokyo combo. I have a fall back that I enjoyed quite a bit so there is a combo in mind if I don’t find something. I also want to steer towards street car. Not because of shifter but because I’m worn out on the race cars. Anybody know what I’m trying to say here?

Yes I do.

You're leaning toward running the Toyota SFR at Dragon Trail Gardens reverse.

 

[Neutty]

I think I’ve got s combo set up that may allow 3 different strategies.

2 laps hard on softs.
3 laps hard on mediums (will depleate fuel)
4 laps conserving fuel on Hards

It’s at saint croix C II.
I hope to test just a little bit more this afternoon to be sure.
