I have some questions....

When I'm in practice I see people connecting and disconnecting etc. Can you
leave
GPL running and go out to windows?

Where do people usually chat? In the game or Yahoo or APEX or ICQ?

I had a good race against R. McColl from South Africa at Zandvoort - he was
in a Lotus, I was driving a Ferrari. Boy was he fast.

Anyone got any tips for me? i.e. where/how to chat after a race.

From SpeedFreek

The after-race chat is unfortunately a tad lacking in VROC, but
this is the  nature of the beast.  Sometimes folks will hang
around in the 'chat pad' after the race, but many will just bail
out.  Nevertheless, as time goes by and you get to know the
regulars you can at least have a couple moments of post-race (and
pre-race) chit chat.  The Yahoo site is mostly for help and info,
as is the Apex site.  I haven't seen ICQ being too popular with
the VROC crowd.  Bottom line is we don't have a common place to
hoist a cold one after the race and needle each other ;-)

Yeah, a lot of those folks are fast <g>.

NTT is one such place. With an hour long practice session and plenty of post
race chat there's more than ample opportunity for a little camaraderie! Give
it a try! See the thread entitled "NTT World Championship Heads For The
Beach" for all the details.
