One of the first things that was gone over was Lazy giving a 20 minute lecture on how XCR13 has had a ping thats too high to race with and he was causing all kinds of issues with said ping. On 2 separate occaisions, things broke down into a shouting match where 4 or more people were keyed up and attempting to talk over each other at the same time. I up and left when it happened a 2nd time at roughly 8:10pm. The topic of Mav sending in Ray's replay as his own was covered for maybe 5 minutes of the time I was there. And as stated before, Lazy feels that Hypershifting should be completely legal since its something within the game that everybody can use. Now its legal in MM races as well as DO!T races. As far as I'm concerned, the "meeting" was basically a waste of time and for the hour+ that I was there, absolutely nothing got accomplished.
Which is exactly what I said in chat last night while it was going on:

yeah thats one reason why im not gonna go in there.its lazy prob giving his philosphy that really doesnt matter and people blowing smoke and nothing will happen from it
dtr2 is fine to me and nothing needs to be changed. if a league owner wants to change something go for it. but the games been out for over 10 years and still this many ppl play it so its done somethin great

Like you said, these meeting never change anything. It almost reminds me of work meetings.
But yeah, DTR2 is still a great game. I tried others, rfactor, NR2003, they don't have the character.
