Strange,
P38 is about same speed as D30 except they keep their E longer thus decelerate less. More or less depends on how much fuel you have.

And if the P38 pilot is not half of a stick, you are dead Strange.

Spiegel, as far as runing, he guy does what he has to do to survive. Maybe he was short on fuel. Maybe he knew it was you and thought he would loose. Maybe you were too warpy.
No one owns you a fight, it's raging sometimes, but you have a plane with capabilities, what u do with it to land is up to his pilot.
Dat jugs bro.

If the con has just upped, then he's low on E. A very good reason for running.

If he had just upped and was low on E, then Spiegel should have had no troubles in catching up to him and shooting him down.  If he was already Co-E or faster than Spiegel's P-47 then he must have been in the air for a bit and low on fuel, which would make the P-38 lighter and might explain why Spiegel couldn't close in.

Depending on what software you are running on. (Win95, 98) open a dos prompt and do a traceroute to http://www.hitechcreations.com.  Do it several times. If your connection is constantly bad you should be seeing some large ping times on some of the hops getting to Hitechs server. If this is the case you might need to get another ISP depending on were you are taking the hit.  You can at least call your Internet service provider and ask why your connection is so bad.
