Congrats on Prize B, zer0!
 
All this prize handicapping and racecraft factoring is making my head swim. When I first joined the league the prize distribution was simple and straightforward. Win, Pick prize. Win again. pick other prize. Win a third time, pick other, other prize. Win a fourth. Pick which bragging rights package you want to use. If you win the vote on who thinks your racecraft is best, get t-shirt.

Now....... :boggled:

Sorry Coach, no time to try to explain it again. We're going with this pick:

Audi TT '03 @ Nurb. GP/F

I'll update the official lineup later.

LOL...wow...............Now that it is clear what we are driving. I was shooting for something like the Italia, that would run GP/F around 1.5 min, thus allowing more laps so it is not such a sprint feeling. More laps = more time to be patient. 7 laps or even 8 (12 min total) would make the back third of the pack feel like there is a legitimate chance without risking racecraft. Just what I was thinking.

I still race to win, and win Prize A, B, or C regardless if it is taken as per the SNAIL rules. I have no heartburn with that rule since it was here before me. However, I do disagree with it. We race to win the prize. :)

Wow! So what happened? I totally agree and hope to see what happens on the third or fourth win. I'm sure others are trying to do the same or they would race elsewhere.
 
So as it stands now...
1) Audi @ Nurb
2) Cobra @ Trial Mtn
3) ???
 
Ap, you want to answer that? :lol:

Time to triple post but no time (or energy or whatever) to look it up? …or better yet, remember waaayyy back to Sunday
 
Sorry guys, this wasn't supposed to be that difficult.

Coach, read my posts again and hopefully you'll understand why I had to just go back to your previous pick. I tried my best to explain what was going on, but you kept picking the Mustang even though it wasn't one of the suggestions to choose from.

I did and I saw my first decision was the Enzo. Suggested by Oshawa-Joe. I even used color text and bold. LOL. It is what it is. The Audi.

Good luck.

I may be busy Sunday - checking with Son/Wife stuff. I'll holler if there is a conflict, and good luck.

Still busy?
 
I'm just sitting back and enjoying (and prodding on) the anarchy.
 
Nevermind the Bollocks, here's the Sex Pistols.
 
So...I guess there's no break in practice races tonight?

Which Cobra is it? The premium one or the standard one?

Not sure I understand the question about what happened. If you mean how prize selection got changed you can thank JLBowler for starting it, I think it was him anyway. :sly:

Yeah.. about that..
 
@zer0 - sucks being the boss sometimes doesn't it.
 
Is that the final answer?

Running late but should be on in 20.
 
Ok there's one slice of apple pie and a couple scoops of ice cream left in the fridge and it's calling my name. I'm gonna eat and watch an episode of How I Met Your Mother and hit the hay.

Hope this gets figured out before Sunday night but at this rate I'm not too sure it will. Good luck gentlemen.

The premium one from the Shelby dealer...that is all I do know about the changes with the lineup this week :lol:
 
In D1 for practice. Is the line up official? Someone visit me to advise of any changes please.
