well, playing online is what this game is all about, but im dissapointed
with one important area.  when joining in practice sessions the online
aspect is very good, but after youve done the practice session then the
qualifing sessions and come to the race, the online code is shit!  i find
myself put in side other cars at the starting line or i qualify up the top
end of the fied and it starts me at the rear of the field, its just all over
the shop.  is anyone else having simular problems?  After practice sesssions
and qualifing that can take over a hour, then to get booted out of stuffed
up at the start makes me want to go and get my money back on this little
baby that promised so much!

   I have yet to do the GTR plunge,  2 separate Health issues with my
family and two separate Pet Vet bills have crucified my finances, but in
the past, with other ISI products, a messed up grid was usually one of two
causes.  
1) Either a poor connection by at least one of the participants, or a
server that is overloaded, or
2) A 3rd party track that not everyone got from the same sorce or had some
different edits done to the pit order, calendar, or that kind of stuff.  
Sortof like if I got Spa from a Touring car mod and you got Spa from SCC.
We could both probably race together, but there would be some confusion
similar to what you noted above.

  And again,  without GTR to full delve into, I can only supose what is the
cause...(ding!  bell just went off,  was everyone updated properly to
v1.4??)

    You're obviously not into online racing.
