Snails,
Sorry I couldn't join you last night. I've got two teens that required to be shuttled around at the last minute.

I'm entering into a pretty busy next 6-8 weeks where my seat time will be interrupted quite a bit. I'm sure I'll be able to squeeze in a Sunday or two but it looks like mid-October before things settle down again for me.

My busy sequence does includes over 2 weeks in France with the family which I'm really excited about. There's some intense negotiations going on here about inserting a stop at the Circuit De La Sarthe and it's museum into the agenda but that means it might cost me a visit to the Chartres Cathedral. (A decision that is not as easy as it might sound, my list of visited old gothic cathedrals in Europe is impressive and this one is a big piece).

Lastly, as the wife and I were online the other day looking at rental cars, the Peugeot 2008 Allure came up as an option. So there's a possibility that in a few weeks, I'll be driving around in one of @radliffracing's all-time favorites. I'll keep you posted...

  4. CH_Wkey_FozmaYT --- voted to eliminate Round 2 - Prize B

  6. Mac1032763 -------- voted to eliminate Round 2
The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 2 - Garage RCR Civic (SH) at Autopolis - Full Course - S02 Early Morning (7 laps)
Therefore, the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. @Kgffy wins Prize A, and 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 - Mazda Roadster Touring Car (RH) at 24 Heures du Mans Race Track - S01 Afternoon (3 laps)
This means either the car or track will be replaced for next week's line-up. @Jacob35040 is the Prize B winner and they have the option to freeze the car or the track, or they can give that option to the Prize C winner. If they give the freeze away, they get 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 @superb3113 - they get 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's confirmed you don't have any penalties.
  • It is recommended you visit SNAIL combo history, along with other data on our car and track history, to review how many times we've raced each car and/or track.
  • Please remember, originality is always appreciated. Although not required, picking cars and tracks we've never raced is a plus.
  • What's more important is, you thoroughly test any combo you are considering, before making it your official selection.
    • For example, any car you select must not hit its rev limiter, either hard1 or soft2, 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 choose the Integra Type R as your car selection, post "Honda Integra Type R (DC2) '98".
    • If you want to select Monza for your track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza".
    • Being specific helps us to update the lineup accurately and also helps avoid any confusion among the drivers.
  • Please be sure to list the HP and Weight (LBS) of any car you select.
  • For track selections, include the Preset Weather and the Time of the Day (e.g.: S01 Afternoon) or it will be set to default.
    • Available settings can be found under Time/Weather Settings, when creating an online Lobby, after selecting your track.

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
.

1Hitting the "hard" limit causes the RPMs to "bounce" and reduces torque and speed.
2Hitting the "soft" limit ceases all acceleration potential. Meaning, you're not going to go any faster.
 
Guys, I mentioned last week the possibility of a two-hour endurance race on Sunday since there won't be any league races that night. Well, I've got bad news. The missus just texted me that she wants to go camping over the holiday weekend, so I won't be available to host the endurance race Sunday. I'm sorry, not sorry. 😜
