As others have stated, I think we just need to give it a few weeks to see how it goes. I get all sides of the discussions, and have some of my own feelings as well (but only after one week).
Personally, it was really a bit odd jumping on and just going for the first race of each combo. Just thoughts here.
With the added time per race it eventually clicked for me as we progressed that I had more time than usual to set up passes. Hopefully that will lead to better race craft (myself included) - as has been mentioned - since there won’t be that nagging feeling to “get by someone quick” and it is the overtaking driver’s responsibility to pass cleanly.
TL;DR I am here for clean racing fun, and it will either be fun, or it won’t.

I don’t like the idea of warmup. After all, everyone had 4 days to warm up. And what about host, scorekeeper & texter? They’re going to sacrifice a significant portion of their warmup time because of the duties necessary to make this league run? Simply leave warmup out.
Edit: AND I’m testing at Nordschleife while manually shifting! (Insert grunt noises here)
Edit2: S2000 (N200) mid division lap time 8:28. Giddy up.

Round 1 - MINI COOPER S 2005 (SH) at Goodwood Motor Circuit - 19:45 Clear (10 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @TEX36 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 - LEXUS AU TOM'S RC F 2016 (GT500) (RH) at Circuit de Spa Francorchamps - 16:45 Clear (7 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @N38824r 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 @SAMHAIN85 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 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. Also, please be sure to list the HP and Weight (LBS) of any car you select. For track selections, include the time of day (e.g: 09:00 Clear) or else it will be left to default.
Car Selection Guidelines
See Section 3 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

@SAMHAIN85 @N38824r @TEX36 A conversation will be created in the next few minutes that will contain instructions and deadlines. @TEX36 has already made it know to me that he wants prize A to go up for suggestions and voting so I will be starting that process a little bit later today.

Looks like we will be running two votes at once.
If you raced in D3 this week, you get to make one suggestion for prize A from which all active drivers will vote as per
@TEX36 request.

Just a reminder to everyone looking at suggestions for prizes. The below, taken from the SNAIL OLR P&G still applies at this time.
SNAIL Approved Track List
Full approved track list can be found here.
Prize winners are allowed to choose the time of day for their track selection. If a specific time of day is not selected then the default time of day will be used. (Note: The time of day settings differ between arcade and online modes in the game. Always check the lobby settings when selecting time of day.) In the event that a track is frozen, the time of day will also be frozen with the track.
Please remember that any car and track combo chosen must produce a mid-division lap time that is under 5 minutes. Also note that any selected track will be bound by the SNAIL lobby settings.
