GPL: the "Honda"

this baby is the worst...with the default settings. i had 9 of the 11
worst times in this bus until i slightly tweaked it. now, it rides more
like a powerful "Cooper". add 2 lbs. of air to all of the tires , reduce
brake setting to 55%, and set the roll to 110 in the front - 90 in the
rear. i know that these settings are not real scientific in their
development, but, dang it - they work.

within the first two laps, i dropped my "Honda" best times on all four
test tracks:

                                before            after
KYALAMI                1:34            1:31
MEXICO                    2:13            2:03
MONACO                1:45            1:40
MONZA                    1:35            1:34

the improvement was immediate. the default settings seemed to make the
engine weigh 14,000 lbs.  now, it doesn't even sway in accelaration and
brakes very stable. there is hope, little ones.
