SNAIL Holiday Event

[Nick Cannella]

Remember to upload your team logos and car liveries to this folder with the names as per this post.

With some minor work after the upload, this is an example what we plan to do with it - Maybe a bit more:

I'll get to work on mine tonight at some point

 

[TexasJDC]

All teams - Please identify your Designated Qualifier

You may keep your strategy as who's going run first, second and third in the race to yourself. You may use your team in any sequence in the race. To clarify...the Qualifier doesn't necessarily have to run the first leg in the race

I'm qualifying for "to the rear with no fear" (white)

 

[MajorBlixem]

Team Color: Blue
@TEX36 (D3), @Tecticles (D4), @Rob Brown (D2)

Team Color: Red
@FREEREVN (D2), @Raw10_2u , (D3), @gulfvet67 (D4)

You guys are awfully quiet....what's happening?

 

[Herimopp89]

We are all plotting our strategies out through the private messenger show the other teams do not have an edge

Exactly

@MajorBlixem
Are the “1,2,3” numbers to be displayed on each driver’s car according to his starting order?

What about additional Personal numbers?

Nope...no need to give your strategy away. You can still add your personal number.
As an example here's my Beetle

 

[Nick Cannella]

Beetle is done.

@Nick Cannella you friends with @socalnatv ??

No I am not, but perhaps @MajorBlixem is? That is where I got the decal, and we've named our team HorsePower Henchmen for the event.

Nope not friends with socal. I did a search for "horsepower" on the decal search, this guy came up, liked the look and the cigar so it became our logo!

Good thing you didn't search for Henchmen

 

[MajorBlixem]

Gentlemen, as of tomorrow I will be out of the office for a week. I will not be able to check the thread from this view:

I've noticed nobody uploaded any liveries yet to this folder. Please get those liveries in so I can finalize the event when I return.

Also I haven't seen any action from team 4 & 5. No team names yet... Come gentlemen, get 'er done


For the car Liveries, use these:

[Tecticles]

I believe the blue team name will officially be Blue Bayou, as far as qualifier I am leaving that up to either of my much faster counterparts.

We are the "Lunatic Fringe"

 

[Rednose58]

The blue team is coming together nicely.....

I want to throw an idea around for discussion....

Qualifying.....

Three drivers per team, three combos

Why not have each driver run a qually? To make it interesting, you only announce your qualifiers for each race on the day of the races in a PM to @MajorBlixem . (He has to treat it confidentially and he can not participate in the decision process for his team's qualifying sequence)

He will then call the qualifiers onto the track and ....surprise.... you will find out who your opponents are.

I will then increase the pole bonus points to 5 points and give 1 point for a grand slam

Points will then look as follows:
Pole Bonus 5 points (for a max of 15 points)
Grand Slam (3 Poles) 1 point
Race Points:
Finish Points
1 28 (28x3=84)
2 22
3 17
4 13
5 10
(find the pattern)

For a perfect score of 84+15+1=100

Lemmie know what you think. Major is outa country, so he will have to deal with it when he comes back - while I'm out of country.... haha

That sounds like a nice format!

[Nick Cannella]

I'm doing a risky thing, but let's see how it works....

Go to this Google folder and upload your team logo using these names:

Bringing up the Rear with no Fear.jpg
Horsepower Henchmen.jpg
Grandpas Retirement Fund.jpg

Use more or less this aspect ratio for the logo so that it fits nicely in the frame

The other two teams: please use the same convention as above when you decided on a name.

For the car Liveries, use these:

Then, major will be able to make a post with all your cars and team logos in one place.

This folder is now open to anyone on the internet with the link. So the risk is that any wacko can go in there and add/ delete/ change stuff. If that happens, I will have to close it up.

I have placed my livery photos in the folder.

I really need you guys to have those cars and logos uploaded to the folder before Monday end of day (Dec 17). I am busy with a little project and I am out of country without my laptop after that. It would be nice to roll out the project on Tuesday. The blue team was done first.... Thanks!

I'm tagging everyone for information purposes.

It is there, but I can't figure out who's car belongs to whom.

I can see numbers. 30, 93 and 97

Either tell me which number belong to each driver or rename the files as per the request in earlier posts above, please

The black team is also ready to go - Thanks
