I can’t wait either. I haven’t even driven any of them because we don’t even know the tire. This will be the levelest playing field I think we’ve ever had. Other than the invitational. Plus, i can’t wait to race my Shelby in the first race.
 
Sorry fellas I got the blue screen. Have fun. Have to say this was interesting. I like the boost because it always is humans to run with the fast guys but it does get rough. lol

Thanks for the fun.
 
I’m glad everyone had fun. I really liked this format this time around. Next time we will run 3 races instead of 4 and keep the dirty races in there. The milage exchange only will be gone next time. That’s was a cluster.

I was laughing the entire time especially at Mount Panorama.
 
Definitely a fun and different event. Sorry I left during Panorama- baby duties.

And I agreed with all who mentioned boost - since I was usually at the back, this was my experience (sans button pushing)

Thanks @Neutty!

Congrats @SAMHAIN85

Thank you to everyone who came out. We started the night with 14 drivers in qualifying. Qually was a ton of fun on compact Hards. We were all sliding around northern isle!

The first race was a ton of fun as well. BOOST on strong and slipstream on strong made for some really good close racing. Where it wasn’t always clean we still had the ability to get back to the front and compete. I found myself upfront only to have a RAGING pack of cars closing in fast. No one was safe. Lol.

The second race we had 2 more people join filling the lobby completely. I was very impressed with the turnout and I can’t thank you all enough. From the sounds of it everyone had fun.

I made an error of falling asleep on the couch waiting for the wife to get out of her bath so I could come down and get things going. I can’t remember who opened the practice lobby but thank you.

Overall it was a good night. I made 2 other errors, 1 race I forgot to set the laps on, but we pushed through is because time was going later than I wanted it to. I thank you all who stuck it out throughout all of these mishaps.

Thank you very much to @SAMHAIN85 @Jw_wk1010 and @Herimopp89 for typing and helping me out in party chat. Couldn’t have do it without you guys.


The format was awesome and I don’t plan to change much for the next SNAIL CHALLENGE. We will run 1 less race on the next one and we won’t have the toboggle of the mileage exchange cars (which DROVE handsomely I might add). There will either be a car list for everyone to choose from, or we will give the loser the choice of which NClass they want and leave the car options open with BoP on. The loser will also choose tire compound.

Congrats to the top 6 that made it into the shootout race and congrats to @SAMHAIN85 ON WINNING the shootout and the $100 gift card to amazon. The finish was a nail biter.

SNAIL CHALLENGE​


Official race nights are for Snail Members ONLY!​

A qualifying race (Dirty) that will set the field for Four races that will consist of lap totals that will be close to 12 - 15 minutes in length. Using Snail rules and strictly enforcing no dirty racing for the actual races but allowing dirty racing for the qualifying race!

The lobby will be open at 8:30 EST. At 9:00 the host(s) will Start a NASTY DIRTY CRAZY Race at Northern Isle which will be the qualifier for the nights event. Demolition derby to say the least. Do whatever it takes to win! This will set the field for the next race. (more on this race below.)

The last place finisher TO THE DRIVER WHO TAKES THE FLAG and doesn't sit on track will be allowed to choose 1 of the N class cars in the list for the next race AS WELL AS what tire compound we will be running. Then after race 2 the same thing follows, IF YOU SIT ON TRACK EXPECTING TO GET TO START AT THE FRONT OF THE NEXT RACE AND SELECTION OF THE NEXT RACE THAT WONT HAPPEN. You will be placed behind the field. You are then not eligible for prizes.

Have your choice in mind as we will only allow 5 minutes for you to decide, as this will be a little break before the next session, if a choice has not been made, then @Neutty will make the choice at random.


All drivers in the lobby will VOTE for the next course to race, the voting period will start after the car has been selected. ALL TRACKS ARE AVAILABLE EXCEPT THE FOLLOWING. CIRCUIT DE LA SARTHE, CIRCUIT DE LA SARTHE NO CHICANE, NORDSCHLEIFE AND THE 24 HOURS OF NURBURGRING ARE NOT ALLOWED. Time of day will be what the voting process brings EXCEPT for the Tokyo circuits and Northern Isle those will be the last choice. Tires will be chosen by the one who makes the car choice.

The next race will have a 10 minute practice session this will allow me to set the laps for the race!


The points system will run like it does on any given Sunday night per the OLR. EXCEPT, THIS IS WHERE THE POINTS DONT MATTER COMES IN EFFECT. THERE WILL BE 6 DIFFERENT WAYS THE FINISHING ORDER WILL BE INVERTED. THERE WILL BE A ROLL OF A DICE.

1 = NO INVERT
2 = TOP 2 INVERT
3 = TOP 6 INVERT
4 = TOP 8 INVERT
5 = TOP 10 INVERT
6 = TOP 12 INVERT
