Better Server Experience

[slowbro]

I can't even count how many times lately I've joined a server that said Practice, then after a long wait and finally joining the server, the server is now in a Race and I either have to wait till the race is over or find a new server.

It would be cool to be able to Ghost ride the track while waiting.

It would be nice if joining the server was quicker. I don't understand why it takes so long when I can load a track in seconds in Training, where joining a server for a Race takes minutes.

The server selection UI should update more often to indicate more accurately whether a server is in a Race or Practice. I've joined servers where it says practice but they're 3-4 laps into a race.
