Seven hours ago SimBin posted on facebook that the lobby server is down. Then 5 hours ago SimBin posted on facebook that the lobby server has been fixed. It’s been down far longer than 2 hours though. Whether the rumors are true or not, we can get back to racing.
Formula BMW season opener tonight! GT Club season opener next Saturday! Life goes on.
The RACE 07 lobby is unavailable. The lobby server is down and we don’t know for how long. We’ve heard a rumor that SimBin is changing ownership, which, if that is true, may be the cause of this. We hope, and assume, that this is temporary.
Those who remember GTR2 may remember the lobby server going down when 10Tacle Studios handed over business. Eventually it came back up. Whatever is happening, we hope it won’t be down long.
For now, the GT season is postponed for one week. The FBMW season will be postponed as well if the lobby server is still down when race time comes around.
We are trying to get it working through Hamachi as a backup plan, but so far it’s only working for a few of us. Stay tuned!
Some guy outside a gas station asked me the other day for some small change. When I got in my car I thought to myself that the guy really needs big change. Anyway, completely unrelated thought, leading up the point of this post. Instead of 12 lap races, we will run 10 lap races in the GT Club season!
