From what I can tell, they just sit there until someone logs on who has the boss codes or remote access or whatever it takes to fire them up.

Well, that sucks. I've left my GPL servers running before, even though I wasn't racing them at the time. I run them just so people can have a little fun. Looks like I won't be running a Heat server yet... :( -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett F1 hcp. +28.67...F2 +151.26... Never argue with an idiot.
