The physics appears to be modeled excellently in this game. The apparent
elevation changes are awesome, much better than GP2 IMHO. So I tried
stopping on a hill to see what would happen. I was pleasantly surprised
when I rolled backwards... I have also done a couple of Ricardo Patresse's
and gone airborne. It was scary :-)

On an unrelated note...I spun off (yes doing alot of that) and into
the dirt I went...when I stopped my right front wheel continued to
turn...apparently because it was elevated on a mound of dirt. My Oh
My...
Hey have you noticed the Video Screen at Monoco showing your view on a
big screen.

Although not related to the physics (which, I agree, are excellent),
have you noticed that if you leave tyre marks on the track, they
stay....gradually wearing away as cars pass over them?!! Seeing where
you made a boo-boo has a sobering effect the next time around :-)

Silverstone has 2 screens! I was finally able to get down to the 1:34's
after
some setups. I would be happy if I could run a 25% race like that. As it is
I
was lucky to finish 19th :-)
Practice practice practice....

Big screen also at Nuerburing, but right at the turn-in apex to a
`blind' chicane, so you may not notice...

hehehehehhehehehehh....my of my....this sim has got me away from
Longbow2, Quake2 and Su-27 Flanker...its scary Im at work dreaming of
setups for Monza...the first race of my custom championship <VBG> by the
way I love that I all the CHOICES this sim gives me to have fun...I
havent even tried time attack and training....WOW...now if the manual
wasnt such a mess...and it didnt look for 6 month old Voodoo files and
it didnt require 800x600 desktop resolution this would now be atop the
best sim released in the last 6 months...as it is now...its neck and
neck with Longbow2....

Try time attack with a ghost car. It is INCREDIBLE! You get
to race against a recording of your own best time. It allows you to
adjust your line, braking, etc. accordingly as you try to beat your
own ghost car. Really neat. The manual is a bit confusing regarding
ghost mode. Just record a fast lap in Time Attack. Exit to the menu.
It will automatically save your fast lap as a ghost car. You will
have the option of loading one of ten Ghost Cars as you accumulate
quicker times.
I keep my desktop at 1024x768 (16bit color) with no problem.
(I have a Matrox Millenium and an Orchid 3DFX card).
Anybody but me miss the Tobacco ads? I don't smoke (hate
cigarettes) but think the ads add atmosphere to the races. Hopefully
someone will make a car editor.
Man this was the best advice Ive recieved ....Time attack is a
blast...and Im learning how to get my times down...I feel like I will
stay here until I get my new motherboard and ram. Maybe then I can run a
race without the first corner slow down.
