Bit of a flaw in this qualifying procedure.
Surely if we change lobby after qualifying, drivers can change their setup to increase downforce for the race. Your qualifying structure, MULE wants us to not run qualifying setups. Well its plausible that drivers could be running low downforce knowing they can change the downforce in the lobby change when qualifying has ended and the order is set.
EDIT: 1-2-3 Roush (MULE's Team) in a very competitive field. Hmmm.

Well DC'd on lap 1 turn 3. FML
Had the pace to get podium today. Maybe sneak the win. One more DC in this series. I'm gonna have to leave. I get side monitors dc every race day as the room is just unstable.
Consider a central located host please.

I am feeling the DC was my provider. I got a no Ethernet cable connected warning. So pretty sure it was on my end today. Comcast. I will get even.
How you are thinking.
We work on their broken trucks. LoL nah we wouldn't do that to anyone.(price gouge) But I'm frustrated with then right now. Well I guess I'll warn up for PURE
Good Luck Eric and Kartman. Bring home those team points.

Nothing new really tbh. Hope Spurgy has sorted out his early set-up issues.

I've had a great day so far.
Had to wake up after all of 4 hours sleep because people begged me to make the races start earlier. Make the room, turns out to be glitchy. Get accused of cheating by some idiot who does nothing but start **** because someone got the tire noise glitch and I thought we needed a new room. My best driver gets disconnected on lap 1, which probably wouldn't have happened if we changed rooms. Some random comes in the room and start being an idiot on the mic, so i have to exit the track to kick him, so now i cant fastforward the replay past lap 18, making my job even harder. perfect day so far.
oh, and mustard won.
maybe i should just be a full time nationwide driver so i can actually race in the races i host. that would make a lot more sense.

Definitely no mistake here that lag caused this as it was Stormtrooper who was the worst victim and he's my own teammate.
Crazy and gokartman ran with me all night experienced no such issues after that.
Good race, though.
Great work, Crazy with the pushing all racelong.

Well it was a great race with RPH & Davey pushing me to the fastest laps of the race. RPH had his ducks 100% in a row, not a single flaw but really we had great luck and a great setup....without those 2 things we'd have not pulled it off.
With the upcoming physics change I dont know if the setups we've been using will still be valid, its something RPH & the rest of us will have to work out in the next 3 weeks before the next oval race. The road courses will determine who wins this championship I reckon, with Grinols the favorite still with a lead.
I'm unaware of the points rule. Do I get 20 pts for winning, and 1 point for most laps led? Or just a max of 20?
I'm very sorry for Owens disconnect, never good to see that happen. I know I was super angry when my brake stuck in the last race, and when I missed Daytona because of construction taking away my internet.

My day was pretty much shot after 2 corners. I did manage to battle back to a top 10 though; if we're going by racing to the line once the leaders have taken the checkered flag.

Like I said, Chqr's or wreckers.
9th. Not bad since I got into 2 wrecks, one that was not so major (but resulted in me claiming an unfortunate victim), and the Chqr "Lagfest", where I got spun around. Plus, I lead the first lap, very good for me.
Wasn't really a lagfest when it only happened on one occasion. Again, I apologise mate but it was simply lag which is beyond my control on raceday.

MULE, first things first, this isn't about you or any other driver for that matter. You're the host and you should listen to your drivers. As far as I'm concerned, you should stop focusing on what you need to and to focus on listening to your drivers.
The impression I'm getting from you is that you don't listen or don't appreciate what other drivers say. NO ONE ACCUSED YOU OF CHEATING. I was explaining a flaw - a valid flaw (as agreed by many other drivers) and you took this as criticism. What made this flaw even more apparent was how your team were 1-2-3 in qualifying. Given such a competitive grid, how you cursed at Crazy and how you were so defensive about it, it raised not just my but everyone's suspicions. Even after the race, everyone was asking how your team was so fast in qualifying. Not my words, theirs. No could have accused you as there's no way of proving it.
Now, your original reason for changing lobby was because of lag. There was next to minimal lag in the room in qualifying again not my words but other drivers. Changing the room would have little or no bearing to this. Exhibit A - last week. I lost tire noise but it didn't bother me.
Credit to you for not changing lobby amid concerns and not raging throughout the race.
I'm not complaining here, merely suggesting an opinion which I hope you don't take wrongly.
