◆ SNAIL [Race Car] Series - Finished - Thanks to everyone who raced during the past 12 seasons!

[Parcells2]

You only need to confirm if you are in the top 10

You sure I'm not in the top ten Grimm cause it feels like I should be.

 

[Parcells2]

Well, may as well get on with it.

Parcells can officially declare season 10 competitors @Parcells2 & @NORML_N have joined forces to create "Team Subordinate". As advertised team subordinate is out to topple the authorities. Who the hell put these misfits in charge anyway?

Team subordinate wont bother you with cheesy pictures of our cars like some teams resort to because we know your imagination is much better than any self proclaimed photog can capture. Imagine a fiery red Lancer with shiny blue rims barrelling at you heading into "the kink" at Road America. Now imagine just the car because we wont be running Road America and that's what team subordinate brings to the table!

Time to change the lyrics to John Mellancamp's song from the 80's! Who's with us?

Good luck fellas and remember second place is still a loser.

AeroVik Motorsports (@vovik05 #1 @aerolite #55 ) is making a return for S10. We were just missing our pizza eating practice sessions too much!

And I like cheesy pictures!

[NORML_N]

Oh, they like to get you in a compromising position
They like to get you there and smile in your face
Well, they think they're so cute when they got you in that condition
Well I think it's a total disgrace, and I said



I fight authority, authority NEVER wins
Well, I fight authority, authority NEVER wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was in a Lancer, I come out grinnin'
Well, I fight authority, authority NEVER wins



So I call up Parcells
I say, "Give me strength for Round 5"
He said , "There is no round five, it's only four weeks, Norm"
I said, "Growing up leads to growing old and then to driving
And driving to me sure sounds like all kinds of fun"
So I said



I fight authority, authority NEVER wins
Well, I fight authority, authority NEVER wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was in a Lancer, kid, I come out grinnin'
Well, I fight authority, authority NEVER wins



I said Oh no no no, I said Oh no no no
I said Oh no no no
I fight authority, authority NEVER wins

 

[brntguy]

Well it's time to announce the forming of "Two Question" team of Kgffy and Brntguy. We are here "Two Question" "The Authority" to cast aside "The Subordinates", leave the others with their heads in the clouds or still trying to remember what they are doing in a cloud of dust with this Rally car. We are ready to conquer the world because we are unafraid to question Authority!

[McTrucker]

Sorry for leaving the last race. For some reason I did not have any of my gauges or anything when the race started. There are not any good places to park on a closed track. I tried to back out to the pit but did not realize it would remove me completely. Sorry

 

[brntguy]

Yea that sux, Norml had the same problem and it was very tough for him.

 

[NORML_N]

I made several LARGE mistakes under breaking in race two. My gauges disappeared which just added to my struggles in an overall sloppy race. Please report any incidents I caused which hurt your race. Thanks and sorry.

 

[xsite]

Sorry for braking early in the first corner at the start of the second race.

 

[SGETI]

For some reason I did not have any of my gauges or anything when the race started

My gauges disappeared

This has happened to me on more than one occasion. The last time my gauges disappeared I hit my "start" button and the gauges reappeared. Hope this helps.

 

[GGGMotorsport]

Was good to be back this week after taking Season 9 off. Great racing tonight from what I could see. Tough track to pass on. Glad to see full lobbies once again and hope to see it continue. Next week, we head to the mountain for the first time in what should be another interesting race!

 

[Wardenclyffe]

Replays are available at the SNAIL Race Car Series open drive.

Cape's got it right - just hit start and your gauges will be back there when you return to the car.

 

[Fallen_log]

Sorry guys, I fell asleep. I completely forgot the race was today due to no alerts on like 6 threads when I got on.

I tried hitting different buttons, but don't remember trying the start button. Thanks, I will try that if it ever happens again.

 

[Parcells2]

Running out of gas in R2 was very disappointing but I was more pissed off at the PS3 masking my choice swear word as I stormed out of the room in disgust immediately after the race. Just so you know I did not type “***” before leaving, that makes no sense, it was your typical and most common 4 letter word synonymous with sex as it were.


Another fun night of racing everyone. Great battle with Aero in R1, sorry about the punts but Parcells isn’t a real professional race driver so stuff is bound to happen eh?


I don’t recall ever running out of gas before and I remain at a total loss as to why it happened last night…at the end of R1 I had more than just fumes in my tank so in R2 I took exactly 2 liters less than R1 but then ran out of gas with almost a full lap left in the race, what the heck??? On a personal level it doesn’t make a whole lot of difference to me as it’s ultimately 2 minutes out of 2 hours where the fun aspect was greatly diminished so no big deal but Parcells feels bad for the subordinates who would have handed the authority their first spanking of S10 if I had enough gas to finish R2….We’ll get you buggers next week!!!


Oh yeah, anyone know what happened to my partner NORML_N? I swear I partnered up with a D3 driver but best I can tell Norm was up front threatening Vovik most of the night…did you syphon gas out of my tank in R2, is that what happened to me? Great job bud, will try not to be such a disappointment to you moving forward but clearly I cannot make any promises.

@SGETI
Once again Cape, you have outdone yourself with the great pics!
Thanks so much for doing this week in and week out, I think I speak for all when I say we enjoy the action you capture, and the fact you always try to get at least one pic of each driver.
