Whatsup guys! Onlineracin has been offering a FREE PICKUP ARENA for a
couple months now. At OLR, absolutely anyone can start up a server,
which is hosted by OLR's servers, NOT your computer. So the
connections are flawless. A lot of people have tried it out, but the
majority I still see sittin around in the sierra lobby, just hangin
out. OLR runs in an applet of its own, which means many things. The
most convinient differences being that there is no switching between
mods, and also... you can do all your multitasking easily, without
being in the game.
Its really really tough trying to get a lot of guys to come over and
atleast give it a shot, probably because they just dont understand the
concept of how it all works. And for the guys that DO in fact try it..
its still not enough for them to stick around. Maybe now that there is
a 24/7 free arena offered, some of you guys can give it a shot? While
sierra was down today, there were some new names in there that are
always in the sierra lobby each evening. They agreed that OLR really
was convinent, and simple! The pickup racing could be much better if
more people would give it a shot during the evening, or even the day.
Maybe if you called in sick.
For anyone that might not know exactly what to do to get into the
arena and start pickup racin at OLR... here's some step by step
instructions....
Step1: Go to www.onlineracin.com
Step2: At the upper left, click RACING>Nascar2003
Step3: At the right, click JOIN ONLINERACIN.COM
Step4: Set up your account. Once you get to the billing section,
scroll to the bottom to find "free".
Your account should be set up. You should be able to log in, and once
you do get to the arena list... there will be a yellow box that says
to comfirm your email addy. You dont have to comfirm it that second.
You will be able to enter the PICKUP RACING arena.
