N3 Online Race

by Rick Sweene » Mon, 04 Oct 1999 04:00:00

I am going to Host a full length Martinsville race after the real race
today.  I am going to experiment with this for the rest of the season.
My goal is to create as real an atmosphere as we can for these races.
This means, Pace on, Yellows on, Damage Arcade, weather random.  My
server is set up to handle 18 drivers, I currently use Cable
connection.  Come on and join up and see if we can make this work.  We
need safe conservative drivers, or the yellows will drive us all mad.

Anyway, look for my server on Won.Net under Rick Sweeney after the Marty
race today.

Thanks
Rick

Rick...

We tried this on TEN.....a bunch.

Here's what we found......100% was too long....many guys are already on
"probation" with the family....lol.....for watching the whole Winston Cup
race....so running another online race for 3 hours....huh...don't think you'll
get many "takers."  But you will see?

When we made the post-WC races 30 or 40% (still plenty of pit stop
strategy)...we had full-fields every Sunday.  Just a hint!

Make it 30-40%.....and I'll join you.

Hi Rick,
I would like to join your races in N3, but you always have the latency
cap set too low for me to join your races..
My pings from Australia, usually vary from 300 to 390, and the races
that i have joined so far with that ping level,  have not created
problems with warping for me or caused problems for others..
It is always good racing against drivers we can trust to do the right
thing, as it makes for much better and more professional racing..
Now, if only us enthusiasts from Downunder are allowed to enter some
races, we might begin to be able to enjoy N3 on-line..   <G>
Cheers,
Ron

Ok , Ron will try it. But if connections bad with the larger Latency
setting, I will need to re-evaluate my settings. Watch for my Host races
and please join.

Thanks
Rick Sweeney

Well not an excellent experience, but not bad.  Once we got rid of the asswipe
who felt a need to be a comedian, it got much better.  Guys need to learn
patience on these longer races. A few thought they could win the race on the
first two laps. Yellows plagued us for the first 10 laps, but once things
settled down and the hotlappers crashed and left, it was ok.  Geez I need a
kill button.

Five out of 19 drivers lasted the distance.

I am going to try this again next week and see how it goes. If I could send
just send out a private chat to the drivers in the race who have the good
driving and mental attitudes for such an endeavor, we could really have
something.
