After a lot of hard work, the Race2Play Live area is available for spectators. From Race2Play Live you can see real-time scoring of GTR2 and GTLegends servers, TeamSpeak servers, and even access our new Live Chat.

Chat is something we have wanted to implement for some time. We are currently testing this Java based chat software and hope for it to become an every-day item at Race2Play. Feel free to meet with others browsing the R2P service, or post race banter, or even team meetings. You will be automatically logged into the Chat with your Race2Play login name. Feel free to create chat rooms s you please, but be warned that unpopulated rooms are automatically deleted.

Links to both the Race2Play Live and Race2Play Chat can be found at the bottom of any page within Race2Play or NasaSimracing.

Looks great. And the next move will probably be that spectators can watch the race also. At Sim-Challenge they already have that. A small Windows Media Player next to the chatwindow. If you want to see tonight's GT-race at Monza ... go to www.sim-challenge.com.

ISI has offered a server-side racecast.dll that feeds only Race2Play servers and feeds them directly to this site, not racecast. It can be done currently by leaching off the Racecast feed, but that is literally leeching data and bandwidth from ISI, which both companies are not comfortable with.
