My dad and I have never had a problem connecting until we upgraded to 7.02,
now the races I host no longer show up.  We go back to the other version
works perfect.
Any ideas?

you have to "test firewall" to make the game announce that your hosting...
from what I read anyway...  if you don't your game doesn't show up

Did you go to Connect -> Settings and change Announce Game to "yes"?
The default changed from "yes" to "no" with the patch.
