Can't connect to server. Says I'm not qualified. Seems multiplayer is having
problems, there is no ratings showing.

Something is screwy witht he server right now. Keeps kicking me off and
resetting itself. I'll call the owner and see what's up. Hopefully it will
all be fixed by 4pm est.

I don't know why the ratings aren't showing on Sierra. Others are chatting
about it in the lobby as well.

Well, THAT was a damn waste of time.  Spun right after the second restart,
ended up facing the wrong way.  No yellow flag.  Tried to spin around the right
way, couldn't turn it enough, ended up against the inside wall.  Since I knew
the rest of the field was about to come around, I stayed stopped for a sec to
let them by before I reversed onto the track.  While I'm waiting, spotter comes
on - "you've been disqualified for reckless driving!"  Well, WTF was I supposed
to do, back up in front of everyone?!?
Dammit, I just can't buy a break...why do I even BOTHER...?

It's currently a love/hate relationship, heavy on the hate right now.

I find this *very* strange.  These long green flag runs only seem to happen in
races that I don't attend.  Or they only happen after I quit.  Thing is, *I'm*
not the one causing the yellows(I think I've cause ONE this season), so why
don't I see all the green flag runs???  I just don't get it.
I'm tellin' ya, I must be cursed.

Sorry Eldred - I *did* miss it. Can't keep up with your posting rate atm. No
wonder you haven't turned a wheel in GPL 65...

A reckless driving dq did seem a bit out of character. I guess we can
reinstate your sainthood :)

Cheers
