N3 Dangnabbit!

Just ran a LOUSY race at Milwaukee. It was a ranked race so everyone was staying in. Also the host had enabled yellows. We rarely made more than 2 laps without a yellow. On the first restart I got a black flag because a guy ahead of me spun just before we went back to green. Fortunately, I dove into the pits to serve the flag when ANOTHER yellow came out so I didn't lose a lap, but I did fall down to 20th. I spent the next 40 laps using yellows and a few green runs to move up into the top ten. then up to #4 with 5 to go. With 2 left we went green but didn't even get 1 lap done when the last yellow came out...so we all were confused if we race back to the line or hold up..I was in 4th or 5th under what I thought was yellow, when the spotter said get going and race back to the line. I started ahead, noticed the other 3 weren't going, and tried to stop, but I got hit and shoved across the S/F line. I didn't have a single scratch on my Dodge for the entire 50 laps and I got DQ'd for crossing the line ahead of the guy ahead of me...(who was the one who punted me across the line...;< ) there goes my top 2000 ranking dave henrie

Damn........stay away from WON Dave....LOL Rankings will be reset one more time though so not to worry to much. :) Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

The next system will include the ability to set up ranked based races. So lets assume you achieve a level of 3 at Bristol. You could set up a race so that only people who were also level 3 or above at Bristol would be able to join your race. The new system wont restrict anyone from setting up a race nor will it restrict a newer person for getting into the system. What it will do, is allow people to grow out of the open pickup style which is as much survival as it is skill. Down the line, also look for personal profiles (Ability to send in your own picture and car files), Team Rankings, League Rankings and a Weekly Tournament based on races run at a particular track each week.

Yes.... it is finished now. Working hard on getting our dedicated ranking system up and running. I hope everyone likes this stuff and gets some use out of it because it hasn't been easy :) Hopefully, N4 will produce stat files as well for us to use.

Your team has been doing a great job with www.raceserver.net. My only problem is I had to exit a Michigan 100% race in 18 laps in due to packet loss and I didn't score very well ;-) Jason. Bill Bollinger wrote:
