Online racing

[Dr_Danger]

Hi Guys,
Played GPL for long time and had GTL since the day of release but never had time to get properly into it. Now I have a bit more time and I thought I'll try it online. It turned out very bad, ever time I joined some server there was some idiot going the other way on the track and hitting people for fun and even if it wasnt it is way to common to get bumped by someone straight away and not finish even one lap. I have read on Racesimcentral that this is all too common these days and the only way is to join a league.
So I was wondering if I can join you guys for a race sometimes. What is the server adress? Do I need a password etc?

c. Get on our server around 8pm tonight and, if possible, join our Ventrilo server so that we can answer any of your questions far more readily.

Oh and 'Welcome'.

[Dr_Danger]

Thanks guys for the welcome  

One question - which one of the servers is a GTL server?  :blush:

The IP does not seem to be there  :blush:  sorry. Maybe because the simple solution is to simply fire up the game and in the multiplayer browser look for a server named "-=[dmw]=- Dead Men Racing" or something along the lines of that. Usually quite near the top.

Thursdays at 8, as OB says, is by far the best evening, but there is some activity just about every evening.

Welcome to the forums. Have fun with the racing lads.

Hello, you will enjoy it here, they are a decent bunch and the racing is good.  I should be around this evening.  Do get Ventrilo set up as well, it makes things much easier to sort out.

Welcome. Leagues is one way to go racing but it's a bit of a commitment. Now the dMw way is LOADS better. See ya on track. Don't forget to check out the Tracks on server thread. If you don't have a track //www.no-grip.net will see you right.

Hello Doc, I'm pretty new here myself, infact I used the talky thing for the first time last night [edit tonight I should say] - that was a completely new thing for me, have to say - will take a little getting used to, great fun though
