Something good for jlv to add: Automatic boot from the race if a player is idle for "X" amount of minutes.
jlv, for a first time multiplayer release, this is pretty damn amazing work. I remember you said you didn't have much knowledge on how to even start making this work. But I guess you did some homework cause this is working really well so far. The best part is this can only get better from here.

I might run another one on the same computer when I get the bandwidth usage optimized a little better.
Before I release the server so you can run your own, I want to get an authorization server working. That means at some point I'll be giving out registration codes to everyone who bought the game and not letting the same code be used by two players simultaneously. It's probably the only anti-piracy device that actually works so I figure I should do that.
