    In last race 04.12.2012 in ranked race in multiplayer when races end (drive to finish) I hold "ESC", get back to garage/standings, but when check "finish" game get back to track, and when hold again "esc" game back to garage. One time when time of race is go to 0 game go te main menu, and next time it stack on track with camera in car in pit - steering wheel react to my wheel, and shifting, but no reaction to keybord.

    And sometimes game when playing race, get out to main menu witch comunicate- player kicked out of serwer, ping over limit - or something like that.
    First question its possible to show ping in game?
    Second - what about minus rating points for that races - in couple of race i lost many points because of disconection.

    You can see your ping to server on the lobby screen. If you turn on driver names "n" key I believe, but mappable in options, you will see your ping to other drivers during the race. If you see high ping to everyone else then it's you with the bad ping.

    You won't ever get any points back for disconnecting. The onus is on yourself to make sure your connection is stable, both for your enjoyment and the "safety" of others.

    With drivers names in race i see this - and when server kicked me out other players have 30-60. I play races when someone has ping over 200, jumps on track, and drive do end of race. I now that :"You won't ever get any points back for disconnecting", but when I race to finish its not -20 points in rating, when someone hit mi in start of race on first turn - that is do to me, almost in every race last time in multiplayer ranked races. And I only lost points, because people cant brake to first turn, and when i race to finish in that situation I have reputation or racing points +/- 2 or 0,5 less, but when disconnected its go to -20 points. And that is my poit.

    And now the same with competition GT4 i hit esc to restart session and view from cockpit stay, but no menu was show - no reaction on game screan, but mouse can move normal. After couple press on esc, enter, space in game shows: Error 1, something goes wrong, and I can choice get back or quite game, and only quite game works - game turns off.

    Until you find the origin of the problem, play on unofficial servers (unrated).

    Its wlan by cable connection, to router is cable internet/telephone line - not optical fiber line. Nominal internet speed is 20Mb/s download, 1Mb/s upload.
    At start of race ping was about 38 or 28 nit more.
    I have couple of times that game kick me out, but then game show on red label on top menu - "kicked out of server - to high ping. Now it wasn't that. Just kick out and game crash.

    Your cpu utilisation is pretty high, there might not be enough left to process everything in time. Maybe lower the graphic settings a bit to get a bit more room.

    Yeah, looks a bit higher than I would expect, but I don't think that's the problem.

    Ok. Thank you everyone. Game crash and "kicked ot of server was fault of internet provider - connection is going down with speed, that much to ping go very hihg, but not to lost connection evidently. Works for now. High cpu utilisation is only on start of race and depending of truck, and I do little improvement, by OC RAM, and now game is smoother (stay 60 fps). And some CPU utilisation is get from crewchief (about 5%).
    The points losing on disconnection, has special category in inciden points over race ends statistic - thats "only" one point, but dont ending race is equal with many minus reputation and rating points. Does no matter now. Its my "happyness" to get shot in trunk on first corner and get4 incidentpoints for good start :D
    Once again thx for all.

    Edit: and i change in amd global settings radeon boost on - that option isn't in specifics game settings, and turn on antilag.
