I have a 2mb virgin line-its alrite but with a full grid there is occasional stutter. but that mite just be my laptop at the same time (AMD 64 3000,128 9700, 521 ram) but i get between 30 and 50 FPS. i am thingk of upgrading it to a 4mb line. i think that would be your best bet if you choose virgin.

Quote from The Very End :Lol, it`s crashed like this that show what the great lag can produse lol

lol from my replay it doesnt seem to be caused by lag

it was a generall lack of evry1 reacting to the yellow flag in the correctway

and of course the two lead drivers that started us all off :P

yeah it was amazingly funny watchin cars flying threw the air from my rear view mirror but evry1 restarted i think restarts should be disabled-a race is a race-we were all warned with giant YELLOW FLAG and the lil insim thing with big red arrows but noo evry1 but me shift+r'd =[

Quote from shadow2kx :I think that insim can do it.
We have the insim support for flags and we have insim position packet so it's possible to do but will it work?

if you got a D/T for overtaking some1 under yellow flag would you do it again?

i wouldn't. I would not overtake under yellows at present but i HAVE to, to stay even marginally competitive.

lets hope Becky reads my suggestion and see if she thinks it feasible

lol- its just no one respects yellow flag-- ppl have this mentality:

[YELLOW FLAG]=great i can overtake who just crashed and get some points yaaaaay! *foot goes down* *adds to chaos*

i did slow(just) for that accident but i was stil caught up in it =/ it was pretty funny tho

if only there was a way to make ppl respect yellow flags-perhaps peanalise racers that overtake under yellow's with a D/T or something. can insim do that?

well the X system looks good so far-iv yet to race in it as the race was full and i got kicked from server for spectating =/ i had t make room for ppl to race even tho the race was full(now thats a bit silly)

This debate is rather pointless. Its like the Drifters V. grippers(or w.e we call each other now) "debate", there are quite a few cruise servers but tbo only 1 or 2 are populated most of the time. There are a good few races servers-and if you really want to race on a combo but there isnt one--make one with about 12 slots on your own PC and in no time it will be full. I have been "crusing" latley because i just got a new wheel and my old 1 was verrry different(think MS sidewinder with no FF) but i also really enjoy(more so actully) racing with a few friends and i cannot wait for the CTRA servers to be back up i was just getting into them(as yu can see from my sig). so lets all Xpress our opinions and not attck each other in this thread

hmmm this has became a bit of an essay so if you got this far-good for you
