Joe, sorry to pile on here, but I have to agree with the guys on this one, I did a search to find your home based on your speed test and was shocked what I found. Here is the pic of my findings, notice the Yeti in the far left corner, hosting a room may not be a great idea for you Joe
Again, sorry Joe, just lookin out for the best interests of the Snails

Sorry you are wrong Glenn. That picture is a couple weeks old and most of the snow is gone now.

I was in the same boat with you last night Exo. This is what happenned in Turn 2 of the first race. Stupid Lag...
All fine and dandy.
Boom! Everyone pushed wide.
Then everyone back in place.
Resulting in me being backwards.
Other people on voice chat noted some lag, but I guess I got the Kaz treatment.

I had that happen, also at Tsukuba, a couple of weeks ago. The lag made it look like I hit BeRandom into the sand on the first turn about mid-race. I let off to let him back on. Next thing I know everyone is jagging around. Finally, people settle down, and I'm about 7 seconds back. Crud.
I only caught lag off of one or two cars last night. I'll look at the replay, because the incident you posted showed only one car lagging, I think. Next thing I know, you're off and backwards!

I'll have to take a look at my replay. During that incident, I think spooble was in front of me, greyish, orange rims. Im the blue car in the third pic, whomever that is in front of me. Anyway, they twitched a little to the right, went sideways, then everything was normal again. I hardly noticed the glitch and my cars motion wasnt effected at all.

Haha, your replay makes it look like I'm the only one that spazzed out. What do you use to capture video from your PS3? I could take a video with my cell phone if anyone is interested in seeing this incident in motion.

Usually when you see everyone else lagging all over the place and your car looks good, the other drivers are seeing you all over the place and everything else looks good and it's your issue. It happens that way right before I get dropped. Every other car drives off the side of the track and then a couple of seconds later, I'm dropped.

Heh, even if it was just your lag, it's not like you could have done anything about it. These things happen to everyone at one point or another. At least you didn't hit anyone. I always feel guilty when lag causes me to punt someone off-track, even though there's nothing I could have done.
I use a Hauppauge 1445 HD-PVR (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005P5UMVM/?tag=gtplanet-20). It records up to 720p (or 1080i, but I think 720p looks better). It's a bit of a pain in the ass switching PS3 output to composite and changing the resolution every time I want to capture something, but other than that it's pretty awesome.

I thought I noticed something odd last night and the replays confirm it. None of my qualifying times registered for the races. So for the first race of every stint I started in last place despite consistently qualifying around number 5. Bummer.

Monday Mayhem!!!! update.
Remember, tonight the first hour will be a staged rally, with two classes competing for the best overall time. We will be racing 2 races on three stages for a total of 6 events. The classes are a 500pp open class, and a 380pp 2wd street car class (ie, no rm, prototype, tuner cars). If you plan on competing tonight, please prepare 1 car from each class before arriving to the room.

I just watched my replay from that first race and the same thing happens in mine, there is a little hiccup, then BeRandom, you go spinning like a mad man. Like Bowler was saying, generally, in that case, the one who see's everyone on track go crazy, is the one lagging. Or, the one that everyone else sees jumping around, is the one who is lagging. Which in this case, you fit both bills. Crazy how that happened though, I dont remember you having issues any other times, and I was behind you a few times.

Ok... What is "open class" from a SNAIL perspective? What is or is not allowed? The 500's can be an Rm car with a +3 engine mod, dialed down to 500 or ?
Can the 380's be tuned, dialed down?
I enjoyed the one C&M I attended, but found I needed to ask more questions first, hence...
I hope to attend.

Well, you could click the link... the open class is just that, any car you can get to 500pp. I'm expecting people to of course run WRC cars in this class. Tuning is as always on a Monday, prohibited, but, you can of course detune the engine to meet the PP requirements.

Finishing in last place in that first race, I was behind BeRandom quite a bit. He had a few minor hiccups during the rest of that race but nothing that messed me up or anything. He seemed fine for the rest of the night.

Ok so here is how we are setting up the room not to cause lag or problems
2rooms 10 people each room one person per team supervises because you can use racing soft 1 time. Aka f1 style also my team are goin to host both rooms Tuesday night times are optional for each room. Also there will be weather change so the lay out is 4v4 in each room with one spectator from each team to supervise also 18 laps.
