Can't connect to server. Says I'm not qualified. Seems multiplayer is having problems, there is no ratings showing. James aka..bluestringer
Something is screwy witht he server right now. Keeps kicking me off and resetting itself. I'll call the owner and see what's up. Hopefully it will all be fixed by 4pm est. I don't know why the ratings aren't showing on Sierra. Others are chatting about it in the lobby as well.

Well, THAT was a damn waste of time. Spun right after the second restart, ended up facing the wrong way. No yellow flag. Tried to spin around the right way, couldn't turn it enough, ended up against the inside wall. Since I knew the rest of the field was about to come around, I stayed stopped for a sec to let them by before I reversed onto the track. While I'm waiting, spotter comes on - "you've been disqualified for reckless driving!" Well, WTF was I supposed to do, back up in front of everyone?!? Dammit, I just can't buy a break...why do I even BOTHER...?

>> Very long green run to the finish. Anyone know how many laps? > > >I think it was 188. I find this *very* strange. These long green flag runs only seem to happen in races that I don't attend. Or they only happen after I quit. Thing is, *I'm* not the one causing the yellows(I think I've cause ONE this season), so why don't I see all the green flag runs??? I just don't get it. I'm tellin' ya, I must be cursed.

Can't keep up with your posting rate atm. No wonder you haven't turned a wheel in GPL 65... A reckless driving dq did seem a bit out of character. I guess we can reinstate your sainthood :) Cheers Tony
