Snail Gr4-Michelin Pilot
GT4 Cup Challenge
Season Opener
Pre-Race Driver Briefing
Friday, July 30th, 2021
at 9pm est
Well Gentlemen, its that time again. Hope everyone had a great summer break these last few weeks, and thanks again for everyone's patience to delay the season opener. But, now its almost here...approximately 36hrs away.
It's Event #1, at Barcelona, for the opening race of the all GS Class Snail Gr4-Michelin Pilot GT4 Cup Challenge. Compliments to everyone efforts and work on some great looking liveries for this season. Have a look at the Driver Profile Post, and the Team Profiles post directly below it to see who is who. Great job👍
All drivers have submitted a time trial and have been leveled and balanced based on those submissions. Now it's time to let the race events and success ballast system do its work to fine tune the parity as the season progresses. Get those tunes set, and get some last minute laps in....competition is expected to be highly challenging.
A few quick reminders to all drivers attending:
*Please be patient in high traffic, especially in the opening laps.
**Respect the space of the drivers around you, and make every effort to race as clean as possible.
***Race hard, Race consistent, and race fair.
Let's showcase the clean and competitive racing that Snail has always been known for.
Drivers are also asked to please review or refresh themselves with the series Caution Process noted below:
Tab 4.2 Caution Process. (In 1st Post of thread)
Any questions, please ask.
For Reference:
Confirmation Reminder Post Event #1

"I have reviewed the first post and would like to participate in the Snail-Michelin Pilot GT4 Cup Challenge International Tour, and agree to run the time trial to establish my driver specific initial BOP regulations.

I’m out of town currently and will not get back for a week. Could I still do the time trial when I get back to become a reserve even though the season started?

Glad to have you onboard, and yes...absolutely. I'll send over the time trial instructions in a pm. As long as you run and have the results to me before the next event, you would then be eligible to race if a spot is available. Will you be creating your own livery to the series requirements in Section 3 of the 1st post, or would you like to have something rendered for you? I'm happy to do so...enjoy livery creation as much as racing...almost. In the meantime, I'll get you on the roster and drivers list. Looking forward to racing again soon.

Post Race Report
Event #1
at Barcelona
on 7/30/21
Event #1 kicked off with some great racing with close battles across the field. @aedenmaddok and @GTR4MROD had an all out dogfight for first place in Race 1. After a terrible qualifying effort on my part, I settled into the race picking off a few spots in the opening laps and finding a great battle with @socalnatv (Sand_68) and @GTP_Guido for quite a few laps mid race. At around lap 15, my tires started to fall off and my pace along with it forcing me to yield a few positions to finish in 8th for Race 1.
Race 2 started well until the pressure came from aeden and GTR4MROD. Once they got around, I found myself in a 4 car battle for 9th place with @MrDonovan , @Rob Brown , and @Phlano099 that lasted until I blew the brake marker in turn 1. This pretty much sealed my race night result, however, I did have a fun tussle with @stelephant in the closing laps. Though not one of my better races, the battles had made it all worth it. I can assure, I will be taking naps on the afternoons before race nights moving forward as I was completely gassed by lap 10 in Race 2. Luckily its still early.
Also, I'd like to point out how close the qualifying and fast lap times were across the field for the opening event. I think we can expect the spread in times to narrow in even more as we progress into the Season. Should be many more challenging races ahead.
If anyone had some battles that they would like to share, feel free to post.
Overall, great racing for our opening event of the Season.

1st place did come down to a tiebreaker between @GTR4MROD and @aedenmaddok , being broken by the highest finishing position on the night.
Congratulations to @GTR4MROD on the overall Event #1 Win. Great Racing

Event #1, Race 2 at Barcelona on 7/30/21
As I watched and broadcasted these 2 races, I noted some amazing and clean multi-car battles that raged deep into both races. Awesome to see a battle to the finish for First in Race 1, and to see a 5 car battle and a 4 car battle 25 minutes into Race 2. Amazing racing fellas...perfect examples of Snail Racing.
