Website: Car Numbers – Only 2 digits will be accepted for a car number. – Fixed a problem where some browsers would report an error when entering valid car number values.
– Fixed a bug that would cause everyone that did not have a preferred car number, or whose preferred number was given to another driver, to all have the same car number in the results presented on the web site. Awards – Fixed the post to facebook functionality. Dashboard – Fixed the display issue some browsers were having with the dashboard. What’s Hot – Fixed the issue in some browser versions where after deselecting a license filter it could not be re-applied. Hosted – Fixed a bug that could cause the system to reserve too much time for the race portion of a hosted session if no track record could be found for the selected car/track combination. Due to the excessive time reserved for the race session, the length of the practice session could have been shortened, possibly to the point of being (effectively) eliminated. – Fixed a bug that would cause the server for a hosted session that included both a qualify session and a race session to terminate before running the race if there was nobody connected to the server at the end of the qualify session. Bandwidth – A new option has been added to the Connection Type selection in Preferences section on the My Account page: “DSL, Cable, Fiber, 256K or faster – Supported (requires fast computer)” Choosing this selection in conjunction with increasing the “Max Cars” setting on the Options/Graphics page in the simulation will allow more opponent cars to be transmitted to your computer during on-line sessions. This makes it more likely that all cars in a large-field on-line session will be sent to your computer. Choosing this selection will increase the load on your computer and graphics card, so only use it if your computer performs well in close racing situations with the current setting. If you do choose to use this enhanced setting, it would be best to test it in a full practice session to see how well your computer handles the extra load.
