@C Knewstubb

Here's your official SNAIL Welcome Post!
​
Thanks for your interest!
Here's what you need to know (and do) in order to join SNAIL Racing League:

We run a clean league by enforcing a strict penalty system based on the SNAIL OLR (which is a modified version of the GTP OLR). We also expect all of our drivers to know and follow The Good Racecraft Guide. Please become versed in both if you aren't already. Once that is complete, please follow the steps below to complete your entry into the league:

1. You start a conversation and add @CoachMK21, @JLBowler, @nmcp1 & @zer05ive as participants. The conversation title should be "Request To Join".

2. SNAIL Administrators will respond with specific instructions on what you need to accomplish to join the SNAIL [Spec] Racing club. Sunday races are organized exclusively through the GT6 Community features within the game.

3. Place the following links (URLs) in the favorites (or bookmarks) in your web browser for quick reference. Please make every effort to read and understand the following links. Over the years a great deal of time and effort has gone into creating this league and we would like nothing more than to have you but we ask that you take the time and effort to do your homework. 99.9% of any question you may have about SNAIL can be found in the posts below.
4. You drive fast and clean on Sunday 👍

Again, the original post has everything you need to know about what to expect on Sunday night and what you will need to have completed in order to be competitive. If you have any questions, please feel free to post your question on the thread. If you have a preference for car/wheel colour and racing number, please follow the instruction contained here.

During the week we run a number of different events, we encourage all SNAILs to join as many as possible.
Welcome to SNAIL :cheers:

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 2 - Renault Sport Mégane Trophy Base Model '11 (Sports: Soft) at Autodromo Nazionale Monza '80s (6 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @Whitey093 wins Prize A, he gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - Stielow Engineering Red Devil (Racing: Hard) at High Speed Ring / Reverse (10 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @Rednose58 gets Prize B, he has the option to freeze the car or the track, or he can give that option to the Prize C winner. If he gives the freeze away, then he gets to decide what car or track replaces the part of the combo that is left unfrozen by the Prize C winner.

Prize C goes to @MajorBlixem so he gets whichever option the Prize B winner does not select.

Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your prize selection until all incident reports have been filed and it has been confirmed that you don't have any penalties. It's also recommended that you review the SNAIL combo history and other data on our car and track history so that you can get an idea how many times we've raced each car and track. Please remember that originality is always appreciated, so picking cars and tracks that we've never raced is a plus (but not required). What's more important is that you thoroughly test any combo that you are considering before making it your official selection. For example, any car you select should not hit its rev limiter at any point during a race (even in the draft).

IMPORTANT: 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. Also, please be sure to list the PP and HP (after oil change) of any car you select.

Car Selection Guidelines
See Section 3 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

Track Selection Guidelines
See Section 3.1 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

The results post above may have an error in it. Prize winners will be notified when it's clear to make selections. This may happen later tonight.

Most of the IRs filed this week did not get their normal email sent out due to someone changing the name of a tab on a spread sheet which caused the whole system to not work properly. A fix is available and those emails will be going out later today or tonight.

The results posted above have been corrected. The round that received the second-most votes was Round 3 and not Round 1. Actually, they tied, but but the tie-breaker went to Round 3 instead. Thank you to @Rednose58 for the heads up! 👍

Thanks Flip. I haven't been keeping up with the thread and I wonder how soon SNAIL will switch over to GT Sport when it comes out in October.

If you have a PS4 already, come over to the dark side, we have a PCars SNAIL series going and it's great. GT Sports is going to take a while...

I am considering getting back into racing on Sunday nights. I haven't raced since GT5. Would I need to re-qualify?

Yes. The procedure for joining SNAIL has changed quite a bit since the GT5 days. Just let us know here in this thread if you want to rejoin and we'll get you going.

Thanks, I will get back playing GT6 and practicing and see how I like it. Is there still a qualifying track/time process the places you in a division?
 
DesertPenguin09
If I may ask, what brought you back? Being gone since GT5 is a big gap
Click to expand...

I just had never made much time to play since before GT6 even came out. I have barely played GT6, and thought about getting my wheel and stuff setup to start playing it. Then I thought back about the most fun I had in GT5 and it was the competitive races I did in SNAIL. They were typically far more competitive then anything else I had tried.
