You bet it is FUN! I went away from it for a bit when I got TOCA2, but I am
now back into it again. Both games are great to me, but they also both have
way different driving styles and you gotta watch yourself when you go from
one to the other :)
If you try the Edit mentioned above somewhere about setting the AI to 2.00,
THEN the pit 30s stops WILL be a major hassle. Cause this setting makes the
AI even tougher.
Granted it is not GPL, but so are the cars too - F1 vs Sports Cars. Since
there is no longer a Team Lotus, I have no interest in F1 anymore - just no
Team, or Driver I care to root for.
By the way, did you see the Lime Rock CanAm today? It was awesome, all the
way to the finish!
