The campus network must be saturated.  My systems have responded slow all day,
and pings were higher than normal for my GPL league races... :-(

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you

We had a couple of long runs :)  Mainly when we got strung out and everyone
was all by themselves :)

Eldred,

There are also serious problems with alter.net these days.  Have been for
about 3 weeks since that major Worldcom screw-up a few weeks ago.  It has
not been fixed, regardless of what they say.

If one's packets go through alter.net DC or NY, and it's past 1pm, it's a
wonder you can stay connected at all.

Other alter.net area's may also be involved, but these are the two that can
affect me.

-Larry

Well, after extensive testing I would say it performed admirably.
Seriously, no problems that I saw.

Eldred - needing to stick his head outside a little more often...

Pace car only messes up when there's AI stopped on the back straight, I
think.

No problems in the race I could see (with the pace car <g>).

Jeez, my league race last night (first points event ever for the league) ran a
35% race at Darlington, we only had _two_ cautions!  TWO cautions at
Darlington!  Then again, only seven cars took the green and we used Arcade
mode, but still.  ;)

Oh, and did I mention I lapped the entire field?  Hehe  Yeah, there was a lot
of blown motors...
