◆ SNAIL [Spec] Racing - Currently Recruiting for GT7 - JOIN TODAY!!Open

[JLBowler]

There was an issue with the initial data input. Some data was not put into "finishing place" but ended up being put into spreadsheet cells that 'did stuff' with data and it was... Messed up.

@kcheeb had to put some elbow grease into repairs, so it may be slightly delayed.

Takeaway lesson: if working on a spreadsheet and you input something and it looks wrong... Undo!

Kcheeb already cleared out the D7 sheet and I went through all the replays and entered finishing positions so the results are there. I think they just need to be pushed from the directors doc to the public doc and that would either be zer05ive or kcheeb taking care of that.

Talk about understatement.

Many brooms were irritated. But their irritation paled in comparison to the Wizard that tells them what to do.

If you're not this guy,

Leave the hat and brooms alone, or you'll end up with a mess, like this guy.

West Coast Division Report

We had a great time. The core group was there and with a few SNAIL regulars and randoms we had about 10 people for most of the night. We had lots of great racing especially since I was not even thinking I would be there this week. I was worried that my lack of practice would have made me uncompetitive but after watching how well @GranStand Bill was driving even if I had been on my best form I doubt I would have stood a chance. Congrats on the Win! @Neovre was as fast as always (2:23.7 at Spa - Really!!!). Only missing the first race stopped him from taking the night although he and Bill had an epic battle at spa from what I could tell with neo only just getting the win. @NDRK1088 continues to haunt my rear view mirrors with his yellow cars. They do not stay there long and soon I am staring at his brake lights It is always a pleasure to fight it out with @tezgm99 although I do think we need to up our game a bit

I am looking forward to the March season and hopefully filling out the grid with a few more people.

Thanks guys.

 

[kcheeb]

Okay, the data has been sorted out. Only waiting on the votes from D7, couldn't salvage them with any certainty.

I've sent a note to the D7 group that raced last night asking for their votes, they have until midnight tonight, Eastern to get them to me. After that we're going with what we have.

The weekly sheets have been copied to the Results Doc, when you enter the data for your Division, please do so there. And pay extra attention to the cells in gray, they are not to be changed in any way.

 

[covan2306]

Back in the 350Z for my friday night league...bah humbug, 30 laps.

 

[zer05ive]

Here are the unofficial results from our league night on March 2, 2014

If you believe that another driver exhibited poor racecraft or is guilty of an S.N.A.I.L. OLR violation, please file a Racing Incident Report by 11pm Eastern / 8pm Pacific tonight. Be sure to follow the instructions precisely or your submission might not be addressed! If you're undecided on whether or not you should file an incident, please read this. Also keep in mind that an incident report isn't supposed to be an argument. Here are some good tips on how to make sure things stay civil and respectful. 👍

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - Gran Turismo 350Z RS (Sports Medium tires) at Silverstone International Circuit (9 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @Voodoovaj wins Prize A, they get to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 Touring Car (Racing Hard tires) at Nürburgring GP/F (5 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @KTR5 gets Prize B, he gets to decide which part of the combo is replaced and what replaces it.

Prize C goes to @martin20az so he gets the tie-breaking vote if the elimination votes results in a tie (the prize winners' elimination votes are not counted under normal circumstances).

Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your car and/or track selection until all racing complaints are filed and you are given the "all clear" to announce your selection. It's also important that you review our Car/Track History so that you can see a complete history of how many times we've raced each car and track (just scroll to the right of that tab). Please remember that originality is always appreciated. Therefore, picking cars and tracks that we've never raced is a plus (but not required). Most importanty, make sure you thoroughly test any combo that you are considering before making it your official selection. For example, the car should not hit its rev limiter at any point during the race (even in the draft).

Car Selection Guidelines
Dealership Cars - The maximum price for a selected car is now $500,000
DLC Cars - Only DLC cars that are FREE and currently still available in the PlayStation Store can be selected.

Track Selection Guidelines
Any non-DLC track can be selected as long as a single lap with the car combo'd with it would not take more than five minutes to complete. For example, don't select anything that includes the Nurburgring's Nordschleife.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When posting your Prize A or Prize B selection, please list the complete in-game name of the car and/or track you are selecting. For example, if you want to select the Amuse Superlegara for your car, post "Amuse Nismo 380 RS Superlagara". If you want to select Monza for a track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". This makes it much easier for the lineup to be updated accurately and also prevents confusing other league members as to which car or track you are selecting.

Good to know. Thanks!

Anyone else have a "cheapest 260+ mph" recommendation for easy credit harvesting as our weekly purchase credit limits move up?

I guess you make it back quick regardless, but grinding that initial investment can take some time without the anniversary cars to start with.

In the early version of the game, you could buy the Daihatsu Mira.It was the best bang for the buck.

 

[LoganMichael]

So maybe this for a new banner design? I tried to make it a lil more flashy but still easy to tell whats going on. and a bit more race pizzaz to it

Same Size as the original.

I like it all but the ghost image of the track over the car.

Sorry about that. It's been corrected now. All of the other divisions look correct, but let me know if anyone notices anything else that looks funky.

All the votes are in and recorded, thanks.

And thanks to @JLBowler for getting the D7 results in

Thanks to you both for averting today's big crisis. Some might think that Russia/Ukraine is a bigger crisis, but we SNAILs know better.

[Handlebar]

Like the top one better, well done!

 

[ExoSphere64]

I still can't believe this happened. I won the pole for the first race (my first since getting the wheel). Then, the race starts, and all the other cars are invisible! I've never seen that happen before. Obviously I couldn't risk running the race not seeing anyone, so I backed out. After that, I was in no mood to come back.

Hopefully all will sort itself out. Your night may have been rubbish but your consolation prize is netting post #50000.

 

[dabneyd]

Yes, the top one. Two images of the track seems redundant. If I'm to nitpick, can you do a version without the border?

 

[LoganMichael]

Last one ill work up tonight proly, want to get some driving in on Spa! Minor changes (greyscale) and added the S.N.A.I.L. Racing. all optional.

 

[socalnatv]

I'm diggin the new avatar Exo...👍

Congrats to nmcp1 and serge...well done.

 

[Zii1993]

 

[covan2306]

Try just running the border down top and bottom, it clusters on the right hand side

 

[CoachMK21]

Finally got around to putting up some pictures from D8. I didn't take any pictures from the first race, so we'll start with race #2 at Silverstone International.

@Kylar One and @Pichon617 heading down hanger straight

@speer9892003 and @wvhellbilly battle for position

@wackedkid47 with a train of cars on his tail

@Sharkb8ii trying to hold off @KTR5 (and he does)

@KTR5 and @speer9892003 had great battles in nearly every race.

This is my 2nd favorite from this group of pictures.

@elsbury2 with his first career S.N.A.I.L. win!

@wvhellbilly on the inside of @Sharkb8ii and @Pichon617 just past turn 1

@Sharkb8ii leads @speer9892003 and @Pichon617

More tight racing with @Sharkb8ii @Pichon617 @wvhellbilly and @FBR_Steve

@KTR5 making the pass for the lead on @Kylar One in race #2 at Spa

@FBR_Steve and @Rolly21581 both need to get some numbers on those cars!

The two shiniest cars ever!!!! @Rolly21581 and @speer9892003

And this is my favorite one!

@KTR5 with a slight edge over @Sharkb8ii at the "ring"

@joe_diben leading @FBR_Steve

Tight racing between @FBR_Steve and @wvhellbilly

The race for the lead, @KTR5 and @Pichon617 about as close as can be and still be clean
