WC Computer Drivers

I'd just like to say that CPU drivers on World Circuit cannot drive.
I'm sitting here watching my brother drive Imola.  He fell back and
was dicing with Aguri Suzuki set on 10(Race and Qualifying).  My brother
gets in on the inside of the first sweeping turn and Aguri just bumps
right into him as if he wasn't there.  Occasionally, Senna, and other
drivers set at 1 will do the same thing.
Also, another complaint about slow drivers in WC.  We now have Williams
set to 800, and everybody else 30+ from their previous setting.
My brother gets a 1:19.xx and the next fastest was JJ in his Benetton
at 1:20.xx.  Senna and Hill didn't qualify but 5 and 6.  Imola is
certainly not a braking circuit.  I must say it is more of a power circuit
with a few cool chicanes, but certainly no Monaco.  I hope in the
new WC that CPU drivers are set a bit higher.  We have tried 999 settings,
but that is basically impossible to play since even drivers set at 34
can blow by you.

Hopefully I will soon post a small program that was written by a guy
on CompuServe that will let you adjust the computer car's tire grip.
This will let you keep the power levels at relatively normal levels
and let the computer cars round the bends a lot faster instead. On
maximum tire grip settings and normal (around 750) engine power
settings, they can round Monaco in under a MINUTE! It basically lets
the computer cars brake later into the corners which is a bit more
realistic..watch for the post..
