GPL: What does "PO" mean?

While in practice online I notice quite a few people type "PO" as a comment. What does it mean?? "just got POle"? "Pissed Off"? "Prayer Only thing that can save this spin"?? Thanks!!

PO means Pit Out, and is used to indicate when someone is coming out of the pits and onto the racing line. Regards, Krabby

It is short for "Pit Out". It is a normal online racing courteous message meaning you are about to exit pits and join the track, that way if someone is on a hotlap and coming toward the pits they will know to lookout for you. Note: also after typing "PO" or "Pit Out" it is a good idea to stay offline until you are up to speed on the track as well as letting any faster drivers by you until you have your tires up to temperature and can start putting down some hotlaps. Some other common GPL online phrases you may see typed by people while driving: k - ok s - sorry t - thanks np - noproblem Seeyas on the track. --John (Joao) Silva >While in practice online I notice quite a few people type "PO" as a >comment.

Or in other words, someone is about to stuff up your lap for you if your rounding the last corner :) I think I'll start responding with my own "PO" which will mean "Piss off!"
