Ok, could someone please help me out. I try to race Nascar 3 but everytime I
try, I warp like crazy. Not being the computer genius, I didn't realize why,
but after talking w/ another racer, I learned that (kinda what I figured) using
AOL as my internet is my problem. Basically too much ram being used that is
causing my problem. Ok, what can i do? I'd like to get a free internet account
so I could race and race good (like I'm capable) but warping so much causes me
to wreck, as well as wrecking others. I don't wanna pay any more a month on
internet access on top of my AOL bill to play online. What should I do? Thanks
a ton. God bless

Actually it's because AOL sucks.

Lose AOL and get a real ISP.

You get what you pay for. 21.95 should buy you a decent dialup
account, if nothing else.

Drop your AOL access and get a real ISP.

Also if you have a winmodem, you need lots of memory. If you can replace
the winmodem with a hardware version. These generally cost just under $100
US. If it costs $39 or $49 dollars, it's a good bet that is a winmodem
good luck

If you can find someone with a fast connection (DSL or Cable)
that is hosting a race, you will be OK. Believe it or not. When I
was hosting races with my DSL connection, everyone else had
56K modem connections and there was no warping at all. I tried
joining races with my DSL connection where the host had a 56K
dialup and it sucked big time. A fast host internet connection is
key.

Maybe, but you weren't using AOL... You can't play very well using AOL to
connect. My servers are on a direct T3 line, but I can't get good pings using
AOL. It's got too much latency, period.
