You'd think he would have been a regular on VROC under some alias. Did
anybody ever figure out who it was?

Hehe, except that the detection isn't any better. Ten mph crashes sending
simulated 3400 lb cars flying, etc.

I race in a weekly full contact racing league that runs on Nascar Heat
(www.ukdirt.co.uk). Until we got a dedicated server to run "thick"
(default is "thin"- less data transferred between client and server), it
wasn't unknown for cars to go flying some 100 ft in the air after a good
hit. Even with the big server (jolt.co.uk "uberserver") For one of the Heat
mods, the makers had to increase the virtual weight of the cars tenfold to
stop them launching from a good hit.
Heat is by no means free from flying car syndrome online, particularly when
you consider that on our short ovals, cars will be reaching 90mph max at
the end of the straights, as opposed to 200mph in typical GPL/NR2003
tracks.
cheers
