Multiplayer, public lobby "disconnect"

I’ve been soured by online racing by the amount of game-ruining idiots that haunt almost every server, but I’ve been dipping my toe into Ghost Races and some full-contact A-Class racing. For the most part it’s been asshat free, but I noticed I can race about 5-6 races before being “disconnected” from a race.

It seems to always happen shortly after the race begins. I usually (for what-ever reason) get a good holeshot in most races and can pass about 4-6 cars initially, then I’m disconnected. My question is am I being vote kicked because of these fast starts?

Am I breaking some unknown, unwritten rule with my fast starts?

Are people just sick of me finishing well, or is just some random disconnect because , well, because the multiplayer network isn’t quite up to snuff?.

Since the last patch I have been getting disconnected like that every time I play.

Welcome to the club.
