I was absolutely going to be there, but I made a huge mistake.

I trusted my Cable Company.

My neighborhood was finally 'upgraded' to Digital Cable last week.  The old
cable system used a dual-trunk system (2 cables - A line and B line) and the
new system uses a single 'A' cable.

In the old system, Data was carried on the B cable.

It was a mandatory change to have a "B-Cable Crossover" procedure done to
move your modem to the "A" line.  You don't have much choice because they
are cutting off the "B" cable in a weeks time.

So, SuperTech (tm) comes out at 11am on Friday to do my mandatory "B Cable
Crossover" to move my Cable Modem to the "A" line.

He started at 11am Friday morning.  That was the last I saw of my Internet
Connection for FOUR FRIGGIN' DAYS!  Heaven forbid they actually TEST this
shit before changing people over.

I just got it back a few hours ago (Monday).

And they would not allow me to change back to the "B" side until they fixed
it.

The guy actually LEFT me without connectivity on Friday.  He said "My job is
to change it, that's all".

Oh, I gotta stop talking about this before I have a siezure.

I also use F2/Split after exiting the pits to watch my closure rate on the
pack when coming around.

tremendous value for everyone, mostly when when you are racing
else. (Early on, I could see where Brian and Mitch would gain
position you won't know where your losing or gaining on
racing with, versus someone comming up on you who may be a lap+
change your line, pick it up, etc.

since G wasn't around me all day; coming from the back, I
doing, I wasn't confident that I was any better than him.
and how much I had to push my car to not let him whiff a

gives you.  With some hardware it even has an extra hit on
do for you which is calling out someone elses lap times,
The F2 screen is the sims answer to that.

lap, but in front, the spotter tells you to line up on the
the outside line.  Hopefully this will be fixed in some
racing with the AI so its not just us.
