I didn't even know GT Sport could make the calculations fast enough to track you around a circuit.

That’s a new one I’ve never heard before thank you so much for the compliment!

 

[LLOYDZELITE69]

I saw you won, congrats - way to represent Canada!
I look forward to seeing your bumper drive off into the distance.

I appreciate it! Thank you look forward to seeing you on track!

That’s the off season exhibition. I won the official Nations cup championship. So I qualify for Las Vegas and Germany. The FIA now is basically just for fun until the next official Season starts again in a few months

Congrats on the championship!

Not only did he win 5 of 6 races. The race he lost, he threw away a 19 second lead, built another 6 second lead in a lap and then threw that away and still finished 0.01 seconds behind me for second. If the finish line was 50’ further he would have got me. It’s like Tiger Woods in his prime. It’s him vs the field and my money would be on him week to week. The rest of us in D2 will have to really step it up to challenge him this season.

That sort of race ending is commonly reffered to by friends as a classic "Grove Finale"

I knew combo 3 would likely be gone, & I was more concerned with achieving a 1:40.xxx than winning.

Always entertaining, as my youtube video descriptions say.

I've raced with Mike and I don't understand why he was relegated from D1 to D2. I've been trying to find what the rules are regarding relegation/promotion but have been unsuccessful. Does anyone know?

I belive relegation/promotion is soley points based, for the season totals. D1 July Season, I had one very sloppy result and paid the price for not warming up or practicing whatsoever.

Scored just 45 points, because I always push very hard & try to use my pace.
That night my 9/10ths pushing led to going off multiple times, in combos I was not ready to go so fast on. (Started off that night with a "no practice" pole position, with the renault trophy GR.4)

The one night was the only bad score, but between the 3 scores I had, the total must have been close enough to bottom for the relegation to be considered.

@Rednose58 @MajorBlixem @JLBowler
I was checking the SNAIL Consolidated Stats and it looks like data for driver names starting with K through Z is missing or maybe hidden.

I noticed that too

I think our wizard fixed it

Thanks @msgt-sd

& dont forget @gtr3123 if you want D1 Nostalgia.

I am really glad to see all of our combined streaming, & promotion with the race greeting messages is helping to spead the good word of the best league in GT Sport.

New members will not be disappointed with the quality of the actual racing & the organization. SNAIL is 2nd to none.

1st Annual SNAIL Fantasy Football league kicks off tonight. Draft tonight is at 8:30PM EST

So far we have 6 signed up. We have 2 open spots if anyone is interested in joining. We arent playing for money - its just for fun. It'll be a good way to get your feet wet in fantasy sports if you've never played.

PM me if you're interested and I will send you an invite code.

The league is hosted on Yahoo. Standard scoring.

 

[MikeGrove]

@MikeGrove I see you liking everything, don’t think I haven’t forgotten about you! Hope to see you on track soon brother, be a pleasure to see you again!

Yet somehow you're in D2 when you'd beat me with your eyes closed, if you keep it on the track that is .

You mean like this @Sean Renon?



Staying on track is usually not a problem. As long as I prepare a bit, like everyone else, its typically smooth sailing. 👍

I would throw DGAF in there as well (I forget what he changed his name to)

 

[Sean Renon]

Curious, why can we not use grid start with false start check, that seems like a lot more fun.

We don’t need all events the same. It’s nice to have variety - even in something so small as the start.

How does the game handle a jumped start with penalties turned off? I'll bet it's in a way that would just cause more issues.

I can test it. I think it's a manual slow down

 

[Herimopp89]

Could this be a part of the ir system??

I'm just speculating and did no testing what so ever...I would be willing to try it out though

 

[Raw10_2u]

I have completed my review of the incidents on file.

 

[Raw10_2u]

Good luck to all our mid-eastcoast Snails. As a South Louisianian I urge you to leave if you're instructed to and be safe. If you can't leave, stock up on supplies, board the windows, hunker down and be safe. Mother Nature can be a B and I wish the absolute best for all of you.

Thanks Sensi!

 

[Sean Renon]

With penalties off the game automatically gives you a penalty and requires you to serve it right away. It's basically forcing you to coast until the penalty is gone, penalty may scale with how much you jumped by.

@N38824r

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 ,@Rednose58,@MajorBlixem & @SAMHAIN85 as participants.

The conversation title should be "Request To Join".

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.

• Original Post
• Drivers List

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.
