I have a cable modem and I thought my connection online would be pretty good but everytime I connect 90% of the time it won't let me join races. I get a message saying "connection failed" or a message telling me my latency is too hi. when I do get in races, the warp is BAD. My modem is as fast as you would expect otherwise except online with nascar3. Does anyone have any advice as to what I could do to improve this? Thanks in advance. Darrell

I was just reading the multiplayer section of the manual over breakfast and it said that cable modem users should read the "readme" file. I'll be trying mulitplayer tonight, hope it's smoooth sailing. Jason.

My copy has nothing at all about it, even though the manual refers to it... Hitch-Hiker

So I hosted and join yesterday without even reading the readme file -- I forgot. Everything seemed to work flawlessly; No need for a readme file in this case ;-) Jason.
