  No problem Simon, thanks, understood.  Takes two to tango, so no
offense/my apologies on my end too.

You clearly know jack shit about WSC then.

Because it says Sports Cars in the name - doesnt mean it's just sports cars.

Do some reasearch

The *** has now moved to here
http://www.racesimcentral.net/~***/ and you now need a username
and password to access it.

A real shame, I only found out about it too recently to ever see WSC on it.
I wish I knew the inside story of why Empire won't allow any screens or info
on the game out, it is very odd.  Must be licensing.

Actually it's at http://www.racesimcentral.net/~chris.west/*** and neither a
username nor password is needed;O). It's only active occasionally though,
you just have to be there at the right time to see it.

  Boy, get up on the wrong side of bed this am?  My humblest apologies for
not meeting your criteria.

  Have a nicer day than it appears so far.

That's the old one that looks to be shut down now.  The same image has been
up for 24 hrs now.

I'm watchin' it, I'm watchin' it! Right now there's a stuffed snowman in
a pointed hat next to a big monitor with what looks like a Maisto
diecast of a Porsche 550A Spyder on top. It's gonna update in 122
seconds! I'm heading for the terlet right now!

Again, since no one is getting the message, it hasn't updated for about 36
hours now.

Hmm not aware of any change on it, and as for the image being the same for
24 hours, no big deal there. At one point it was only active once every 2
weeks-2months. Longest I've seen it go inactive was probably about 4-5
months....possibly not that long, possibly longer, but it was a while.
That's what I meant by it only being active occasionally an you have to be
watching at the right time to be able to see anything. Unless there's an
official word somewhere from the Wests that it's shut down, it's probably
just that it's inactive.

Well then why have they set up a new url
(http://www.racesimcentral.net/~***/ ) that is clearly a *** on
the west's site, and that needs a password?  Anyway, I hope the old one
starts working again :)

Not really sure they setup a new url...
http://www.racesimcentral.net/*** also works and is the same
*** as the original url...might be how you access it to start the feed, I
dunno...not really knowledgeable about anything to do with ***s, but I'm
fairly certain that the original *** is still working, just inactive for
the moment. We'll find out eventually, but I'll be surprised if it's turned
off...last time I know of that it was off completely rather than just
inactive it didn't load any image at all.

Haven't seen Chris Rea in a while. Don't know how that's relevant
though. :)
