I have a DSL modem and just purchased GPL. Is there a way I can connect to the net for some online racing? Thanks in advance, Terry

By God, yes. But are you willing to give up life as you know it? ;-) You'll need VROC, a free online race finding service. Go to www.vroc.net - that'll get you started.

Life is over as you know it. If you have a girlfriend, its over. If you're married, get a lawyer. Chris G. "Terry McCann" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ESpJ5.1254$[email hidden]... > I have a DSL modem and just purchased GPL. Is there a way I can connectto

Is there a way I can connect to >the net for some online racing? As you can tell from the other replies to this thread, we're all somewhat obsessed with GPL online racing. VROC takes perfection to the next level. There are few things in life better than winning your first race against good human competition on GPL. And because of the infamous GPL physics engine, races are never dull. Putting pressure on the driver in front has never been so much fun. It's not something you can appreciate when racing against the AI. Perhaps one day we'll see a third party app' like VROC, but for GP3?
It definitely doesnt. LAN play is awful - we tried 4 players once - that was a barrel of laughs ;) - even on 100Mbit network. Ash "Jan Verschueren" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Exactly. My buds tried it on 10Base T... seven people... ugly. Jan. =--- Ashley McConnell wrote... > It definitely doesnt. LAN play is awful - we tried 4 players > once - that > was a barrel of laughs ;) - even on 100Mbit network. > > Ash
