Snailula One is back to its planned schedule, as the racing hopefuls make their way to Karoswald, where they faced off against one another in the tourney grounds (which recently hosted the Post-Tuvmas Tussle, an excellent event). 

 

It was thirteen snails that lined up to race today, a whole four of them making their Snailula One debut as we reach the midpoint of the season! Though, as this would be a dramatic race, which would only see eight snails finish the race!

 

It was one of the newcomers, Sosin Colborn and the snail Goomy, who managed to show their qualifying prowess and take pole position. Anaksandr Amador and Shellnon Slugaine de Snailstaff, who had been struggling from the beginning of the season, qualified second. Behind them, another first-time racer, Daisy and Snuddy ‘the Raccoon’ (who is not actually a raccoon, but a snail).

 

KTSR Kvaszian Turbo were once again absent from the race. More notably, so was Prince Aleksandr, who appears to have gone missing. Daisy and Snuddy substituted in as the member of SR Galaharing for this race.

 

It was a good start from the pole sitter, but their fortunes quickly turned. Out of nowhere, Goomy spun out, slamming not only into the wall, but Vasilia Barrow’s Madame Mucinda and Isurus’ Vallei. The safety snail quickly came out, though the race had barely started!

 

It was tight from the beginning of the race, with the leadership switching many times between the likes of Snuddy, Princess Milena’s Snilvan the VIII, Shellnon Slugaine de Snailstaff, Mikhaila Colborn’s Carlos Snailz, and Sophia’s Ikur Seregon.

 

On the other end of the spectrum, snails like Tomasz Karoswald’s Snail Slowuel Slimegio, Kazimir Weiss’ Breakneck, and Prince Joren’s Exalted Slugismund scraped their way through the race in an uneventful manner.

 

But it was Snailvan and Shellnon who eventually pulled away from the rest of the pack in an intense duel for the win, with the lead swapping between the two at a whim. They made their way down the long straight side by side. It was neck and neck by the finish line, but Snailvan the VIII just managed to take home a first victory for SR Galaharing. Shellnon took home and uncontested second.

 

It was neck and neck for the competitors for third, Snuddy, Seregon, King Karl’s new snail Lightning McKoenas, and Elizaveta Cargot were all hoping for a go at the podium. However, it was not to be for the latter snail, who went out of control on the long straight, causing a long safety snail.

 

Snuddy, Seregon, McKoenas, and Snailz were all lined up to have a go at third place. However, just as the Safety Snail was going to head in, Snailz suffered a sudden crash, hitting the wall and ending their race. A disaster for the Championship leader. Snuddy and Seregon had pitted, while McKoenas managed to survive behind the Safety Snail.

 

After a bit of delay, the Safety Snail came in, with Snuddy and Seregon going side by side up to the line, though Snuddy just managed to get in ahead, converting third on the grid to third in the race! Seregon took fourth.

 

McKoenas had slowed down significantly, presumably due to a poor pit strategy that saw them race on slower slime towards the end, but nevertheless managed a fifth place finish.

 

Breakneck overtook Slimegio to take home sixth place, with Slimegio in seventh. The struggling Exalted Slugismund eventually took home eighth place, the final position of the race.

 

With Carlos Snailz’s crash, and Snail Slowuel Slimegio’s poor finish, the championship was blown wide open with only 6 points between the top four racers.

 

The fans awarded Snailvan VIII with the Snail of the Day Award, for their excellent management of the race lead to take home their maiden win.
