    Any chance of a non flash version that would run on the iPad?
    Or a new mini client HD?

    Schakel, thanks for the link. I still couldn't get it done on the mac so I powered up an old pc and got it to work. Just my luck that the servers I'm connected to are the last refresh.

    Kalle, no complaints here. No different than blowing out a chute, breaking a rudder, etc. in RL. At least I know have something to blame my poor performance on!! :)

    I had access at home this am but at work now and I can't get into the race. Is there a problem again or is just something at my end? I'm in the USA and on a Mac (so the PC suggestion was not helpful).

    I too had a problem with my delayed DC course start. Also beached a couple times due to DC not working. Just assumed I did something wrong.

    Thanks.
    Just so you know, as I was approaching the line I was sending repeated 1 degree course changes to pinch up to the line...
