I am not sure how many shells I have left if any but guess and you can have them.
 
I'll be sending you 25 anyway.

Have to put some thought into your tester but I have a couple of ideas.

Edit: Can't find your name on the recipient list to send you the shells.
Looks like I have 22 shells but I have not been active for a while. Username jobyone but may not be there as I am not active. Regardless I will put mine and you 25 to whoever guesses the car.
 
I found the site it's from but there is no full image of the car :( hi ho hi ho more digging I go.
My wife took the photo. There is a full pic of the car on the site:)

Here is a hint. The race modified version has been used 10 times in snail and was in the lineup for my second ever snail night back in 2012:)

Ah ok So I'll go with '97 NSX

And cool photo's I love that vette!
 
ATTENTION
Alright snails, a few of us have been mulling over the idea for awhile now so let's bring on a night of action and we'll be sure to bring it back weekly or maybe a couple times a week.
It's basically a poker night, you will buy in with shells you have earned( better get volunteering if you don't have any;)) to create a pot and the winners will take the pot of shells. If you like to gamble and obviously you like racing, this should be a lot of fun.
Anyone with shells will be able to race , if this interests you , "like" this post or send me a PM.
We are looking to run it on any days that do not have snail events as the format is quite flexible.
Before you guys get started on this, please layout exactly how this will work. What rules, format, and enforcement measures do you have in mind? To be honest, I'm not sure how I feel about the idea in the first place. I mean I like the excitement that it would bring, but am also concerned that it would devalue the point of $hells in the first place, which is to reward contributions to the league (not performance on the track). I realize that participants partake if they have already earned $hells, but it would essentially enabe the earning of $hells on the track.

That said, I don't want to just shoot down the idea without giving you guys the opportunity to fully lay out the game plan. If it's just modest betting and everyone involved has an a fair and equitable stake in each race, I guess there wouldn't be too much harm in giving it a try. However, who is going to be the one to monitor that $hell transactions and follows up to make sure that everyone who loses, sends the proper amount of $hells to the winner? Not trying to be a party pooper, but just want to make sure all bases are covered. One thing I know for sure is that these races would not be allowed while an auction is going on in the Marketplace.
 
Can I join snail this is era-slayer98

@Zachery baker

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:
 
|||Trick I don't know whether to thank you or get pissed at you for bringing this up! I asked in our practice lobby tonight if there's any other ds3 users and trick mentioned there were a few, but there's some turns in the game where you're at a disadvantage due to limited steering lock on the ds3. I was like what?? I've been playing since GT3 and that's the first time I've heard that. So I went digging through gtplanet to see if there was more info about this and sure enough it led me back to this thread, a few hundred pages ago. It all makes sense now. I've been watching replays of the quicker guys looking to see where I'm losing time, and watching people take the fast long right hander on apricot for example had me confused. How are they taking it at 108mph while feathering the gas, as I'm taking it on the same line and having to completely lift and take it at 98-100mph? Now I know why!
There's a simple and excellent way to fix this. Buy a wheel! :)

It's funny getting quoted 30 000 post later.

Hi boys and girls.... and especially the May 2016 Data Specialists

We need the May data completed before the end of day Saturday this week so that I can:

1. Archive the data, and
2. Set up the Race of Champions​

Without the Data, the ROC gets even more complicated.

The following is lacking/missing:

May 22
Div 1: No Data entered
Div 3: No Data entered. (Mr. Birdy promised he will get it done - thanks)
May 15
Div 1: Total Times for all 6 races missing (It's the scorekeepers job to enter these times, but you can get that from the replay with some quick fingers and a calculator. Even if it is off by a couple of 10s it is better to have than not. Score keeper should pay attention though...:irked:)
Div 2: Data incomplete
May 8
Div 1: Total Times for all 6 races missing (see comment above)
Div 2: Qually time for Round 2 missing (Scorekeeper's job :irked:. Data man can only get this if he took pictures)
Div 4: Round 1 Race 1 - how many laps did you run? (if the Total Time is a typo then it is an easy fix)
May 1
Div 5: Round 2 Race 2 data missing
