    What's happened to them?

    When they were first launched I could get a ping to them and race. This was limited due to the livery bug where you couldn't join the server. Now that this livery bug is fixed I've come back to race them but am getting no server with low ping anymore.

    What is the reason for:
    A. Not getting a ping to a majority of the servers?
    B. Not seeing any Aussie based servers in the list of pinged servers (I would have thought they would be among the ones that do ping.)

    Is this a bug or have they been taken down?

    all servers are currently hosted in Europe i assume. some in Sydney would be great for me because it would encourage Aussies and Kiwis to race online so at a good time for me.

    Hey we have a few servers in Australia and Japan though admittedly not that many.

    But soon you'll be able to host your own servers so there's that :)

    I just thought it's worth adding that I have been able to connect to any server I've tried since the livery patch fix, including ones that do not show a ping.

    Really !!? That's awesome !!
    @::SKRO:: get radical back on the race schedule and Dtm 13 at Bathurst

    I haven't had time to play much online lately but If they fixed that , I'm very happy, it's worth noting that this " no ping can't login issue" was introduced at the Dec 26th patch , prior to that update I had no issue to login to any server.
