I had gotten in the habit of restarting system, router, etc about 15 mins before race start, as that seemed to work for about two months with zero issues (with regards to seeing the room and all others on track).
By the time everything comes back... T-minus 10 minutes. No friends rooms show at all. Not the end of the world. Plenty of time to try again.
By the time everything come back, t-minus 5 minutes. Still no room. Freak out!?!? Then hear advice to search by track. Suddenly I see three divisions.
Same thing happened last week and I missed race 1 on my 2nd restart. I wish I could go back in time and see if the track search would have worked.
Regardless, based on my experience, I think the right answer is to simply note in our procedures to "search by track prior to clearing cache, restarting, etc." That takes less time and may be a more reliable solution, at least with this current GT6 update/version.
The other issue is that when restarting router you can't post online. I'm generally trying to get everything booted back up ASAP and not taking the time to post issues in the thread until the last 5 mins when panic sets in. (This is in addition to making it clear in the Div convo that I'm coming to race). Seems others operate in the same mode.
So the lesson to be learned: do what works for you, but before the first router reset, tell your division you are coming. Then if you still have issues 5 mins before, let them know. That'll buy you the few extra mins you may need for one last restart. And if that fails, see you next week! ;-P
I don't use that no more GTP_Compton3 is what I use now one gtplanet lolAnd the Suzuki has a special place on my heart for giving my 1st win in SNAIL too.
I just can't believe how the only race I done on Sunday gave me the win. Gotta thank @Kgffy and FloydC3 (which strangely is giving an error when trying to open his profile ) for spinning in the last two laps and handing me the win! 👍

I want to be removed as host from D7. I no longer wish to be a part of team snail. I joined this league because of my love for Gran Turismo, but I find myself enjoying it less and less. I will still be racing on Sunday nights I just don't have the desire or time to be part of team snail.
