More info: when I ping the servers, they respond. So, the machines are still on and connected to the net.

Good info. No connection tonight on our regular race night. Talked to a friend, down since yesterday. Hmmm. Hate this. Oh well, still the best run out there. Gil

Sure have, but you still have to FIND a suitable race. Sierra servers make race selection a breeze. Log on anytime, pick a race and run it.

The moment First-Racing bought the code, the Sierra support stopped. The fact the online servers kept running was probably due to a yearly contract, which I'm guessing has now expired. dave henrie

This has happened before, I am sure the servers will be up again shortly. They will keep the servers running just to keep rubbing EA's nose in it...
