West Coast (did not race due to maintenance on GT6 servers)


The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione '91 (Sport Hard tires) at Deep Forest Raceway (7 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @ParkerMO125 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 - BMW M3 CSL '03 (Sport Medium tires) at Apricot Hill Raceway (7 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @FloydC3 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 @dcallnight so he gets whichever option the Prize B winner does not select.

Prize winners, you have the "all clear" to announce your selection. It's 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 $750,000
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.

 

750,000 credits? If I could just throw something out there...



This.



Here.

 

hey guys, prize A, wow! Getting ready to head to work until 600 central. With the baby on the way play time is at a low. But should be able to pick my decision within an hour from getting off tonight, this doesnt go over any deadline i have does it?

Also, the google sheets are very hard to go through on my flip phone(let alone text this), few weeks ago someone posted combo history on here, cant find it. Anybody?

Shocked about prize A now

edit- which tab do i want? I click on link, sends me to shell marketplace. Looked in monthly results didnt see anything? Which one?!

 

I believe this is what you are looking for.

 

Just remember that we have official practice at 9:30 pm EST, so that should give you about an hour. Please post your pick soonest so that everyone can get ready in time of practice tonight.

That is one expensive Dodge.

 

This almost seems like the perfect argument that others were discussing earlier, in regards to timing of combos. This would make sense what is picked, would be in effect a week from Sunday, so you could start practicing for these combos on Monday. I still have to pick up about 70,000 credits to buy the Mazda Roadster to race it Sunday, so all of my practice is on those circut races

This from the last place D8 driver.....so take it for what it is worth

 

S.N.A.I.L. Data Announcement
​

Google has upgraded Google Docs and called it Google Sheets. They've promised all kinds of good things, increased performance, easier to use, fewer restrictions ... sound familiar

At any rate, today I'll be finishing the upgrade of the S.N.A.I.L. results documents to the new Google Sheets. Things may appear broken from time to time, but fear not ... It's all part of the master plan

I'll post here with the links for the new documents as soon as they're ready.

 

@bigjobrob, do you run the seasonal events? Some of those have a pretty good payout, especially the FT-1 seasonal that was released on Monday. I think you get 300k when you get gold, which is 600k if you have the 5-day bonus.

Bronze Target Time - 1:57:000, prizes are Toyota FT-1 + 60K CR
Silver Target Time - 1:49:000, prizes are GT Flourescence 002-C + 90K CR
Gold Target Time - 1:46:000, prizes are GT Gunmetal 007-W + 150K CR

 

S.N.A.I.L. Data Announcement II
​

All right, I've got the two main documents converted and ready for use. The existing documents will remain in place until I am satisfied the conversion has not negatively affected S.N.A.I.L. The new Google Sheets documents have all had their names adjusted, I've appended '- New' to the end. So, if you're looking at the S.N.A.I.L. Results document, it's name should be 'S.N.A.I.L. Results - New'. If the document you are looking at is named, 'S.N.A.I.L. Results', you're looking at the old document.

Without further adieu, here are the links to the new documents:

S.N.A.I.L. Results - New
S.N.A.I.L. Directors' Points Tally and Elimination Votes - New

If you notice anything that doesn't look right, please post here and I'll have a look at it. Also, later today I'll have the rest of the data loaded, summarized and presented.

Thanks

 

The driver race count tab is filled with "#VALUE!", and the scores for D6 on the 2014.04 tab seem to be in reverse order. Everything else looks great.

 

Thanks. Should be sorted now. Hopefully not a portent of things to come.

 

@zer05ive , for the Nick McMillen cause I'll go for platinum, nr7 shirt large. thank u.

 

I randomly found this guide that lists which events are the best for earning credits. So those like @bigjobrob can find the best race for them to get some quick credits. No surprise that nearly all the Red Bull races are the top earning events.

 

Like JLBowler clearly explained, there's no way to clear combo choices before all steward work done.
Need money? Red bull all the way.

 

That link didn't want to work....so try this one...
http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps3/707208-gran-turismo-6/faqs

 

Link works for me, but yea, that goes there too. Maybe this one will work better.

 

Ya know you could just play the game.. Before too long you will have plenty of credits.. Just sayin

 

... talk about a close finish...

 

What the Monza track was like in 1956:



One of the bridges we go under is part of the old track.

 

For my prize c, I want to keep the track but change the car

 

It's up to the prize B winner to choose first, so we're waiting for @FloydC3 to decide if he will freeze or pass.

 

Alright @KTR5

 

Let's just wait and see..

 

Aww man...that CSL is the bees knees. Boo hiss....

 

PRIZE A SELECTION

People have been wanting power, this has it.
People have been wanting full use of the cr limit, this reaches it.
The track has almost no elevation, which helps this MR

Lamborghini NOMAD Diablo GT-1 '00 @ Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit

 

Is it a street or race car?

When you said you had something at 750k I was hoping for a Reventon, but this is just as good(if its on sports tyres)

 

Agreed. A bass-ackwards choice.

Race car, for sure.
