I gave it up about the same tie that GPL came out.  I was very frustrated
with the problems on TEN(that are still there).  I mainly just ran one
league race a week (Oscar Sportsman) and when Oscar took it's lang break I
bailed.  I do miss the league races but nothing about pickup.

I was heavy into league racing on HAWAII and tried my heart out to
maintain the league schedule on TEN when everything switched over.
Unfortunately, TEN's simply not up to the job of providing longterm
service to their customers, and what's more is they really don't give a
shit about your problems.  They're shotgunning it, hoping that they'll
get enough people who're satisfied enough to offset the hoardes who,
like me, think they suck.

Nope, and I was happy to hear that NASCAR 3 will support it's own FREE
servers. No more paying for a service that is so often offline. Oh, your
question was regarding NROS? Sorry, I can't run in that series because
of some sort of rule (not from the correct state/province).

I cancelled my TEN account shortly after GPL came out.  The racing was
much better, and the sim was much more fun.  However, I'll switch back to
Nascar when N3 hits the streets.

  Well there are about 50 to 100 guys using the
free demo these days.   trouble is  only Atlanta
and Watkins glenn are available.  99 % of the races
are on Atlanta..

Only about 10 times the number of GPL people who race on VROC any given
night......  Some people claim how much better GPL is online, but I guess
they are not racing on the ovals like Loudon or Homested like this Oval
Nut... Becuase those tracks in GPL are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more warpy than
TEN/NROS.

The ONLY cool thing about racing on those Oval GPL tracks on VROC is all the
Warpy Fire bursts LOL.  Get to see the car's blast into flames then
re-appear LOL.  I kind of like seeing the fire heheheh.

Well, I still have the account, but not much any more.  I may cancel it.

Frankly, NROS is getting boring to me.  Improvements to the system
ceased to happen about 4 months ago.  They can't even fix it so you can
use the current crop of digital wheels...

What's worse, the 'crowd' on NROS has changed.  Now, with the exception
of a few dozen I enjoy racing with, it seems everyone wants to smash
their way to the higher skill levels.  It's unfortunate that that method
will get you there just as quick as the experience method.

And, the final toothpick under my fingernail is the gross lack of
courtesy on NROS now.  All of a sudden, about 2 months ago, very long
practice races started showing up.  I'm not sure what instigated this.

You could be in an arena that is full, with people fighting to get in so
you they can race, and all of a sudden 30, 40 and 60 minute practice
races will start popping up out of no where.  It finally gets so bad, I
just leave.

What makes that situation worse to me is that there are always EMPTY
servers that these people can practice in.  But, no.  They have to pick
the most active pickup-race server and plant their asses there.

It sucks.

The whole attitude in NROS has gone wacko.

That's all I have to say about that.
