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

[DesertPenguin09]

Mechanical failure kept me from starting Race 2. Something not working in the powertrain, just not enough energy to get it going. Might have been electrical gremlins, not sure. Definitely need to get back to the simulator and work on managing fresh/cold tires.

 

[brntguy]

All I gotta say is "INTENSE"!!!

My first race in racecar series was very fun, I learned the first race I need to know how much liters to add, guessing will not work in this series, 2nd race had goal to get podium and it happened with that epic battle at the end with zii..., looking forward to future races, well done Grim putting on a great show

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Racing with pit stops is so much more fun. Really changes things up. The Touring Car Series is even more thrilling because there are two tire compounds in play and you can really tell the difference when racing someone on the harder tire when you're on the soft. Lots of fun battles towards the end of the race.

Good job tonight @ParkerMO125 . Pole and both wins. That GT Academy stuff really helps around Silversone . I just couldn't quite match the pace.
Good strats too tonite. I've seen 1 stopper working surprisingly (I believe @Zii1993 and someone else did it) and refreshingly (is that a word?) Good start for the season and it should get even better for sure!

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Next track is Apricot Hill Raceway. Day and night racing. I haven't been part of a night race yet. Do you start at night or with a sunset? It's always fun to add the dimension of a blinding sun in your eyes at certain points.

Great racing tonight. Replays from tonight's races are available at the SNAIL Race Car Series open drive. Looking forward to next week, even if I have to KOQ!

 

[goofytyler]

That was awesome racing tonight I can't believe that in race 2 the 1 stop actually worked for me and what was even funnier was @Zii1993 and pitted at the same time I past him then while in the pits he passes me back. lol. Great race from everyone.

 

[GGGMotorsport]

Good start to the season tonight gents. Was some intense battles going on.

I do find it interesting how without fail, several of each season "rookies" don't prepare enough for the fuel loads needed in the first week of the season. It has happen every season. Tonight it was @Kgffy that fell victim to not taking enough fuel. Amazing how by next week though you wont see it happen much.

Not sure yet. Will announce it as we get closer

Great photos, but as a custom request would you mind taking more of me in the races? Every week I see a lot of other cars but rarely mine shows up. I have some close battles too.

You are number #96. I have you with #26.

did you check the photo thread?
SNAIL [spec racing] Photo Club

This week i took over 75 pictures, from all angels, close, far, side, top, behind, then downloaded, cropped, shadowed, highlighted, overall edit. I tried to choose the better shots. Not easy deciding. I also try to include all drivers.

I could have easily photo bombed this page but i have received some rather angry PM's in the past about the delay in loading the page for phone users.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I had trouble loading the Photo Club thread so if you're saying you took over 75 then it didn't load all of them.

That's a really nice shot though! Well done

Look at me me me.

Taking pics a very long process. It takes alot of time. Trying to get all the close battles that everyone is have would take a video highlight. How about just sitting back and enjoying the show.

Or just take your own photos and post your favorite selfies here so we can admire the greatness.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I have an idea. Since I also don't have a crazy amount of time to get all the photos I want.

SGETI/CAPECOD will be the main photographer and I can be the custom photographer. Message me any lap or turn numbers and other drivers you were battling and I'll do my best to recreate the action you had on track.

 

[brntguy]

So Grim and I decided to call the second race from Wed.Nite. Hope you guys check it out, we'd like to know what you think, maybe we will do it more often.

 

[Kgffy]

Just watched the whole video and was cool seeing all the battles in the field, thx brnt, grim for putting that on.

 

[Zii1993]

Gonna watch it here in a bit I loved the first one and in sure you guys did a wonderful job for this one as well

Great stuff guys!

Just a quick note to help with the rendering when it takes forever sometimes when switching cars..(at least I think it helps but could just be me thinking that)...if its taking extra long I pause the replay and it seems that it always comes on damn near right after I do that
