Eldred,

Please do,but then join us often and race with us,while hosting with you
great server. There is really no point in having all these races with no
one in them.

Personally,I try to run in the Intermediate or Pro races,as most of the
newbies stay away from them. But one thing that drives me nuts,is to be
taken out at the start of a Pro race.

But my personal favorite is to see a remote server host a GP at the
Glen;108 laps. No one joins,and it runs the full race,waisting bandwidth.

From the lack of response at VROC,I would say to stick with intermediate
long and pro long races.

If no one is in the race, the server shuts down automatically. It won't RUN
the full race.

Tough crowd...<g>

The server is at work, so racing from there is not an option. It's strong
enough to be a server, but not strong enough to race ON it... Besides, I
couldn't justify the wheel/pedal set to my boss... :-)

Tell your boss it's aaaaaaaa new kind of mouse... ya ya, that's the ticket!

Thanks for the servers E.P.! You're the King of Ping when I race on them.
I'm starting to join more long races. Hope others do too.
