Thank you Kari Ikonen for creating this great utility!

It turns GPL from a session of overdriving the poor car (smashing it to
pieces against the armco) to a great sim where I can race in my own (quite
slow) tempo.
This is the util which actually makes me appreciate the Nordschleife.

I realise that this tool has been avaliable since 1998, but I'm in general
against driving aids and altering AI. I haven't actually wanted to change
it, until I realised what wonders AI can do to your laptimes in N2002. (In
N2k2 I set the AI-speed so that I don't have to pass the last car, and when
I do pass the last car, I raise the AI speed. [practise for multiplayer])

With new skidsounds and an AI I can compete with, I think I'm gonna spend
some more hours with this great little sim. :-)

Thanks Kari!

What skidsounds do you mean? I'd like to try a new one if you recommend...

He's probably referring to skid sounds that have been increased in volume in
relation to the other sounds in the game - this makes it easier to discern
when you're leaning on the tires, and makes the cars a bit more predictable
in corners.  With the stock skid sounds, they tend to get drowned out by
howling engines and such.

I asked about skidsounds a few days before writing this post, and Remco
Moedt uploaded the sounds he's using. It's an excellent set.

I also tried the skidsounds from F1-2001, which are quite nice. They just
need to be raised in volume to work.
