That's okay. I've read quite enough of your whiney, cry-baby BS so I'll just
file you into the ole killfile. I can't believe I waited this long. That
joke about the BBB ... oh man, I'm still giggling over that one.

I'd wager a week's paycheck against this one. They have no case.

That is one of the benefits of N4. If you are disco'd you can rejoin the
same server and start racing again. You are started in the pits, so it can
be like simulating a green flag stop for problems. The race tho does keep
running so even if you do get back in, the rest of the pack will be well
down the road. However, if you are in a league and battling for every
point, then the ability to rejoin can be a godsend. A big advancement in
multiplayer racing. I can't remember tho, if you can rejoin after having
MANUALLY disconected.(i.e. hitting escape and exiting the track) then
trying to rejoin.

I think that when you manually disconnect your status will be retired.
Therefore it would be useless to return as you can only watch your fellow
racers having fun.

Thanks for clearing that up Pascal..kinda puts a hurt on my future plans
to run endurance racing with teams of drivers sharing the same car...oh
well...looks like another job for WSC.

I thought we were going to beat Ruud over the head until he included
that in Racer. :)
