It just doesn't "feel" like Canyon anymore, the controls, drifting and everything has changed for the worse...

Canyon feels like Stadium dynamics now - sux.

Now tried multiple variations of the following:

- disabled uploads downloads
- cleared cache
- limited ghosts
- ignore player skins
- opponents always visible and hide nearest
- disabled skin cache

and still its doing it - this is really aggravating....

2MB connection (yeh i know, not the best), but no contention at all (i.e. its not flatlining on data transfer)

2 of the 4 cores are showing approx 50% CPU usage, the other 2 cores approx 0-5% usage

Thx for that jonthekiller, but no luck - still doing it ...

I've noticed if I join busy servers that when playing the game it will lock up for a split second every 5-10 seconds, which is making the game unplayable online. I can't work out whether its to do with getting downloads of players skins or not (the little blue progress bar top right whilst playing?)...
