Oh FFS.

It's a conspiracy I tells you.

Rupe Wilson · Nov 13, 2012

What did i miss,

I go out for a morning and miss all the fun

Glad were getting it all sorted..

Eck Simpson · Nov 13, 2012

Can I give this a go?. Still haven't driven anything other than the Gr. 2 car. And not driven in GTL for ages. Make way, coming through...

Stuart Thomson · Nov 13, 2012

Why, yes.

Yes you can.

Rupe Wilson · Nov 13, 2012

Now iv'e got problems getting on the simbin server... this is crazy...

ill keep you posted..

Stuart Thomson · Nov 13, 2012

Just done a tracert, and it looks like that ip address now has the name www.gtl-server.net

Open that in a browser, and you get bude links...?

Jacob Boonstra · Nov 13, 2012

I'm in and I'm staying in

Got the same problem and changed: gtlsrv.race-game.com into 81.3.59.61 and got in right away

Rupe Wilson · Nov 13, 2012

I think that's the original GTLegends lobby address from the game as it was in 2005. Altbierbude bought the rights to this address before Simbin took over. So if you use this address today you should get Altbierbude

Stuart Thomson · Nov 13, 2012

My point is that the IP address we're pointing to somehow resolves to this name - even though it's a different lobby.

Knut Omdal Tveito · Nov 13, 2012

Ah, I see. Very confusing all this. Hopefully Simbin is already on it.

Rupe Wilson · Nov 13, 2012

Andi (at Raceroom) has emailed all relevant people ... looks like a DNS issue

Bob Hutchins · Nov 13, 2012

Yep, I'm in for this one pls.

...?

On my end a Tracert still traces to a german server from Hostway Deutschland, rented by Krawall Gaming Network GmbH, whereas www.gtl-server.net (94.23.231.41) belongs to server ftp1.altbierbude.de, which actually is in France

gtlsrv.race-game.com still produces Zero result here...

Dave Stephenson · Nov 13, 2012

sign me up please

Arnaldo da Anunciação Junior · Nov 13, 2012

I will not be able to participate, I am not well disposed.

Sorry.
See you next.

Stuart Thomson · Nov 13, 2012

So you're telling us 25 minutes after the event has started.

Carlos Diaz · Nov 13, 2012

Race1 is sill going....
I wanna apologize to Thommo for ruining his race, broke just a tiny bit later than him and took him out in T1. Then, even though I waited for everyone to go including him, I noticed that my XD was saying he was one lap behind!? So I park my car on the side of the road and wait for him to pass. He passes me and then pulls off the road and quits out.
Not sure what happened but I felt like I should quit out as well, as it was my fault he couldn't enjoy this race.

Sorry again boss, really wasn't looking to dive bomb you or anything, it was a tap just strong enough to spin you around, wasn't even planning on passing u there honest.
