Look for "F1 Classic 1.2".

This thing is rapidly becoming my favourite OW mod on rFactor.

Now if we could get a Spa'67 of similar quality to VLM Le Mans...

Regards,
Mr. S.

You can find it here: http://www.racesimtracker.com/

Too bad they did not fix the car speeds in V1.2 (I'm still 10 seconds
faster than my best ever laptime at Kya in GPL, for instance), but still
this mod / conversion is a blast.

Cheers, uwe

This is the first time after GPL when (to me) any sim feels
like GPL! Very, very nice mod! Thanks for the makers and brave
publishers!  ;-)

It might be because they just ripped of GPLEA car models for their mod
without GPLEA:s permission.

I'm not touching mods that have this kind of history.....

Are GPLEA still around to *give* their permission?

Their site is still up with contact details and I think they are visiting
RSC forums, so....

gplea.org expired back in july, their rsc site hasn't had any news
updates since '05

Yeah, I couldn't see anything there from anybody claiming to speak on
their behalf that was against this mod except from a quality
standpoint (lots of people speaking on their own behalf).

I hope they can get it sorted.  Be a shame for their work to
dissappear when the last GPL player dies, if they're not into any
other sims it would be nice for their work to be seen by a wider
audience.

This particular mod is probably doomed because of the bad *** around
the version 1 content.
