(...) Random thoughts: The way I read it, you can only notify of position down to 9th place. I guess you could treat 9th place as "9th or worse place". Also, you can only send a count of up to 9 laps, limiting either the race length or the error (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) What about 5?! (...) What message would the 11th place car get? Right off the bat, I'd say 23 cars is too many.
