Odd, I have precisely the opposite experience...   Anyway, there were
a lot of on-line fixes in the 1.1 and 1.2 patches to GPL, plus they
just released a "no-disconnect" patch last month that helped a bunch.

I'd reinstall, get all the patches, and then install WinVroc.  Pesky
issue right now with on-line GPL racing is that, after some change
ShadowNet made, you have a 50/50 chance of getting the BSOD when
entering Chat.  Blows the WinSock and you have to reboot to restore
your connection.  Looks like some kinda bug in WinVroc.

Not too big of an issue if you'd rather race than be sociable, though.

Now wait just a second buster, weren't you at vroc the other night?
If not then you have taken the name of someone who gave up TEN for VROC
