N4 - Reconnecting after Disco..

Has anyone got dumped from a race, and then reconnected to it? I did twice over the weekend. You come back in and you start in the pits 'X' laps down, and you can finish the race. Nice touch. But.... In the two races.. Michigan I reconnected and was 3 laps down. I raced, got the "one to go" indication, but never got the checkered flag untill I completed all 20 laps. I should have only ran 17 laps. When I finished the 20 laps, I got the checkers and my spotter told me I won the race.. In the Dover race, I reconnected and was 10 laps down, but something different that I noticed was that with every lap I ran, the standings added one lap to the number of laps I was down. I should have stayed 10 laps down, but in the end, I was 22 laps down. And again, I didn't get the checkered flag. But this time I just stopped racing. Anyone else seen this? Also, should I report it to Papyrus? Dean

If they've got ANY sense - they should have already seen it. If they don't keep at least one eye on r.a.s then they're pretty damned stupid. Doug "James Pickard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:QFVW5.4203$[email hidden]...
