	Hard to believe its been 10 years since my first online racing experience. I was wondering how many old-timers that still follow this group were testers on Hawaii? A show of hands and handles. I went by MR.V Tim yuhasz

I think he ended up helping them testing. Anyway, with today's phone plans it would surely had been different. You can get specific numbers for unlimited hours, at charges much less than the exhorbitants bills (in the thousands per month) some people had. Nowhere except local LANs have the quality of racing been equal to it. -- -- Franзois Mйnard <ymenard> -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...

Heh, $300 was a baby crack habit ;) I doubled that every month for 5-6 months. Nearly $4k in all but dam if it wasnt worth every penny. Online racing has never been the same imo.

	Those were good times...the community was a lot closer back then. I remember hanging out in the Compuserve forums and hearing about it. I was there the first night it went public. I ran in a bunch of leagues ringing up $900 phone bills. I didn't care...it was a blast. My ID was sbycroft. I ran in Late Night with Dave, SSCA BGN, CUP, and Sunday Nights, NRH, and SASCAR.

I was too cheap to do it a lot. The guy that ran our league still lived with his parents and ran up a phone bill in the hundreds of dollars for just one month. After that, he disappeared from view.

I had a son in college and a new house and just couldn't afford the phone bills. Think about it, those were dialup days. Good quality racing but sometimes intense. I haven't really got back into the online scene much since. I finally have half-decent dsl and am thinking about getting back into it if there is anyone out there who would take an old "newbie" and help him through the ropes. Ed

	I guess the current state of on-line racing is about where I thought it would be. I didn't think the community would be as scattered though. Back in the day everyone would be meet on Hawaii, Compuserve, or TEN. A central meeting place is probably the thing the community needs the most to get it back to where it used to be. There are still some good leagues out there and broadband is finally available to most people...even CW Webster is using broadband now...lol. I thought Papyrus would keep making Nascar and Indycar games forever...obviously that didn't happen.

	I still think TEN was the best experience there has been since Hawaii. They had ratings that actually told you something.

	It's getting along quite well... I'm in the latter stages of preparing the shell - and then it's of to the painter for a respray. Also been busy preparing a Mini Marcos for a "customer" aswell as helping Matt out with his car. He took 4 class wins from 4 starts last season - although competition was "petite" to say the least.. Highlight of the season was the last race when his prays for rain finally paid off - was such a blast watching him "kill" Mustangs in the wet ending with a well deserved 5th overall. Oh well - seems like things are pretty dull in the virtual-world so it looks like we picked the right time to convert back into real size cars :o) Any big news I've missed?

To me GTR is on par with GPL and nearly the best thing since sliced bread ;) Seriously though, we finally get something for the hardcore simmer and all we hear is "its the same as F1C" which imo is a load of bs. Yet in the next sentence the same guys say how great NSR "WILL BE WITH A PATCH" and that no one cheats in NR2003... go figure... What happened to the good ole days when roof riders were ridiculed and aids users were cheaters and true sims (as GTR) were glorified as gifts from heaven ;) Mitch -- Remove "nospam." to reply.
