FYI- This information was taken from rpmworld.com regarding the virtual drag racing on Ridejudge.
The game is done.
The testing is over. I'm adding some cars, and whatever I have by 8:00 p.m. Central Time on Monday, it's going live.
So far I have been reluctant to stand behind a release date, but unless I get hit by a truck or trapped under something really heavy...Monday is it. The single login system appears to be stable now, and I played the game today against 5 other beta-testers from all over North America (I'm not ignoring the rest of the world, it should work fine wherever you are).
For a full list of features in release 2.0 read the rest of this article, and thanks for waiting.
