Hi all,
Dont know whether this section is the correct one on this delicate subject, but hey..., Im thinking of starting to join the thousands of people that regulary race snails..I know its an addiction, but I cant help it,,, I just love speed...
What im wondering is :

1 ******* Are there any snail racers out there

2 ******** Are there any drugs to enhance its performance

3 ******** If the police raid the venue, should i just tread on it !!!

How do i pick out a racing snail. most that ive seen are either just sleeping or if they move, are just doodling about...

Do you think that #13 might be an unlucky number to paint on its shell..

Fantastic answers so far, but im still unsure about just "Legging" it and letting the snail find his own way home or just simply treading on him, or her, whatever

A small rocket attached to it's rear end could possibly give it some encouragement.

Yeah Man I,ve been racing snails for close to 4 years now.
There are drugs to use to help speed your snail along, I use extract of cabbage leaf a few drops on your snails head and the little blighter will be wizzing along like a rocket. This is highly frowned apon in the snail racing scene but its untraceable so why not?
The best way to pick a snail is on dark nights find a suicidal snail that trys to jump under your feet while your walking. You have to be alert and mind you dont step on them. These are the fastest. they can slime along quicker than Redrum
My current snail is world champion. Ive painted his shell red and he has a little Ferari Logo on his forehead. i call him Schuey. let me know I;ll gladdly take you along to a meet.

I know a 'friend' who is a snail jockey, he told me that if you take speed the snail looks like he/she goes faster. He also advises me that in the event of a raid you should put a string of onions around your neck and shove a clove of garlic in your gob. As for picking a thourobred snail i would reccomend looking for the tell tale signs of the go faster stripe. lets face the facts, if you're a snail, any number is unlucky.

here in Brazil we've many problems with african snails (Achatina fulica), this is a invasive specie, and here interior the summertime is a wet season, they reproduce plenty. The biologists that works for the government says that we would desire to place salt interior the snails and burn all them. After that, bury each thing. this is the only answer to shrink the inhabitants of african snails.

The important thing is motivation. You could hire a motivation coach, show your snail a motivational video, or maybe buy him a motivational book like "How to always be a leveraged winner in just 5 minutes" by A.Z.Marketing-Speke.

Alternatively, just kick its ***.
