I agree also, I think that was the worse lag and warping that we've encountered! I think paul's solution to shut us down to only one server and jack up bandwidth made the second race possible. maybe in the future have only one server going on sunday and max out the bandwidth.. I don't know jack about servers or bandwidth, but maybe those that do can find the solution.
the problem might be: we want larger grids and we are now getting them. I seen that someone said that sunday might have been largest grid that they had seen. I guess that means server must be able to meet those demands..
as for the reverse grid spots. I realize this is a SR4L tradition and it really does make the second race very interesting.
this is the second week in a row that I was not where I was suppose to be. although this week I was only 2 spots out of position, instead of 19. my suggestions would be:
1) we have a little longer warmup or 2 warmups - and have paul tell us who is where on grid somehow, like a drivers meeting at a real race. if you fail to correct paul at that time - too bad! grid is set.
2) to have a false grid, it would work like this. everybody grid up for the second race and be advised to note their spot on the grid right up to when the lights go down. at that time abort the start. then make corrections..
either way would add work for paul and time... those that know what is involved please chime in and help.
lastly - I am adding this on here cause in might get more attention. live timing is a really neat way for everybody to learn where they are and where they need to be. I am begging - from the bottom of my old Italian heart - ;D - can we have it current - PLEASE :
