Does it just suck or what?  I've tried connecting TCP/IP and modem to modem
with the same results.............major screen freeze and poor frame rate. Is
this a problem with the sim or might there be something wrong on my end?

Thanks,
Dave

I think it just sucks!! I don't think it is anything on your end. A friend and I
tried to hook up cable modem to cable with the same results. Sometimes very long
pauses, freezes, etc. etc. When is EA ever going to address this problem?? There
is nothing better than spanking your friends online on a rainy day (if its to
wet to get on the real thing)!! Personally, I put that one on the shelf! I'm
waiting on the new one from  http://www.motorsims.com . The first release will
be online only.  One would think that they (motorsims) have the multiplayer
figured out. Looking good to me!! Now, does anyone have the "inside line" as to
when it is coming out???

Cheers
Bob

Its pathetic code. I have seen other bike sims hardly hiccup at all with eight
people racing. AMA Superbike willalow 32 bike fields over the internet wihout
much frame drop. EA realy should provide a patch or a free upgrade to Superbike
2000.
