As dabneyd said, we only allow standard cars to be selected when they are available in the OCD. However, since the OCD refreshes every other Wednesday night, we only allow OCD cars on the weeks where the OCD will not refresh. Since the OCD is scheduled to refresh tomorrow night, OCD cars are not available for selection this week. They will, however, be available for selection next week.
Also, if anyone can help, I will be looking to pick up a few paint chips for my cars:
Colour - Perlmuttgrun
What is the make of that paint? Perhaps I can help!

The pictures should be in the Pictures section of your XMB.
Plug a memory stick into your PS3 and navigate to one of the pictures, press the triangle and a menu pops up, you can select Copy or Copy Multiple, choose the memory stick as the destination. Put the memory stick in your computer and upload them to your favourite picture hosting site.
From there you can get the links of the pictures and post to your hearts content here
Easy right!

I went ahead and copied over this week's results to the SNAIL Results spreadsheet. I should wait and do it tomorrow, after any penalties have been assessed, but... there it is.
So, keep it in mind, this week's scores are still provisional.
Some things to note:
Directors:
Please, enter PSN IDs as they appear. Do not use forum names, and do not abbreviate the PSN ID. There are lookups that will fail (and then I have to go back and update them by hand).
Everyone:
On the three month long sheets, I've changed it up just a bit, to make it look closer. We have three weeks, so we have three scores. I'm dropping the lowest of those three. Next week, we will have four scores, and I'll drop the lowest of the four, and so on.
It makes the scores close now, but keep in mind, those dropped sleepers may be good, and may be counted over the next two weeks if a driver does poorly.

Ah - I was only saying "Go to the XMB..." and then trying to find them later. I've unsuccessfully tried that enough times to try this method. Back in a few - daughter is having a friend over soon, so I need to get my ducks inna row.

Actually, I wonder if Millerhd is actually talking about this post from the S.P.E.C. Racing thread. It seems to be more in line with his mention of splitting the race with two cars. Prior to Rally's post regarding qualifying, the only time it was mentioned was over voice in the D2 lounge on Sunday night. Millerhd wasn't in the D2 lounge on Sunday night so it's unlikely that he would have known about that conversation.
Probably. I'm never on the SPEC thread so I wouldn't have known. I figured I just couldn't remember the comment from some previous page.

I think the reverse grid order is what makes it fun. To qualify for both is boring & you might as well just race once at the track then. When you start in the back you just need to be patient. Lets keep the racing at a high level, Passing takes skill.
On a different note, I'll take prize B. Keeping the track, changing the car. New car is the Mercedes 300 Sl coupe '54. Can be found in the premium garage. I believe the tires will be Sports Mediums. Hope every1 enjoys it.

The discussion about splitting up the qualifying into two sessions is simply a way to make the track less crowded during the qualifying session before the round started. Drivers would simply be spit into two groups that would then take turns on qualifying. There would not be another qualifying session after the first race so the Reverse Grid race will be unaffected. 👍
Thanks for the making your selection! I'll update the lineup once RIP_Welsh_Don picks a premium car since his previous car selection does not meet the "easily accessible" rule that is a requirement for all car selections in this league.

Interesting photos Handlebar. Although taking pictures from the TV with a camera usually results in poor quality, in your case it made many of them brighter and more vibrant.
In the future, though, it might be nice to be able to transfer directly to your computer.
I'm not sure what problem you had, but I should ask, were you unable to get any photos to your XMB, or could you not get them to the USB?

Not to jump all over you, and I don't know if you tested the car or not, if you did and like it, no problem. I'll run what ever. I had my eye on that car in the past, but decided against it due to the rear end always wanting to come out, even worst then the Ferrari imo.
I trust your pick tho =)

I could find them in the Photos section, but other than Picasa/Facebook, it would not recognize any media was present.
I put the camera on a tripod, turned off all the lights in the man cave, put settings on camera to portrait quality, etc.

Yay! Jones you made it!
Gunna have to get you some seat time this week!
I had host compatible issues aswell trying to join during Q in race 1, and then got disco'd before the start of race 2, and had the host issue, so had to restart PS3 which fixed it, but by the time i got back in, it was started already, so im out 1 race in points :/
Jones or Mopar, can either of please tell me what your/his correct PSN ID is? I tried mr_jones80 but it says that ID has not been registered.

For the Merc, I've been repeating the b-spec 400PP seasonal at Monza; 5 laps (18 miles) and one driver since the best I can do with the car without buying the weight reduction and engine upgrades is about 435PP...nowhere near enough to be competitive in an enduro :/

I should probably just wait for sethfraz22 to answer, but he did indeed test the car out. In fact, after were were done playing Cat & Mouse last night, he asked everyone to test the car out with him and let him know what we thought.
I didn't test the car out myself (I had to answer a bunch of PM's), but I was in the lounge while the rest of the guys were doing laps in it. 👍
