And heres a few for you to consider if you want to go for modern music

1. "Higher"- Creed (good song while lapping the Ring or at the start of a VROC
race...)
2. "Road Man"- Smashmouth (just a good car related song)
3. "Fuel" & "Whiskey in the Jar"- Metallica (just gets that adrenneline
pumping)
4. "Nice Guys Finish Last" -Greenday (very true for most VROC races...hehe)
5. "Oops! I did it again"- Britney Spears (something I say quite often in
GPL...)
6. "The Distance"- Cake (again...just a good car/racing related song)
7. "Go Away"- Godsmack (something often yelled at virtual Surtees)
8. "Bye, Bye, Bye"- Nsync (good thing to say while blowing past the leader on
the straight at Monza :)
9. "Song 2"- Blur ("woohoo!!"....said often after setting a PB or winning a
race)
10. "Break Stuff"- Limp Bizkit (start of any VROC race...)

I don't want it to *suit*, I want it to be *fun*! Hence the somewhat
lightweight music. The last thing I want is to have to *concentrate* on
the songs!

  I don't drive GPL too often has I still have too much of a lead
foot.  I just love going fast.  I did have another go at Monza
yesterday though and decided I'd like to hear some music in the
background.  My selection?  The soundtrack to Grand Prix of course.
Fantastic.  I have it in MP3 and I'll post it to
alt.binaries.simulators as a single zip for y'all.  Had to turn down
the motor sound but it was worth it.  Felt like James Garner passing
Stoddard for the win (and I was the only car on the track.  Well, I
was on the track some of the time) :-).  Actually have managed a few
complete laps at Monza finally.  1:43 I think is best so far in an F2
Brabham.
