If you keep clicking on the green square in the lower right hand corner of
the screen you eventually get to a screen where you can race a 1967 F1 car
and it's all in 3d and everything!  I only just discovered this, it's really
cool...  :)

I had someone do a 6.4 second lap of Monaco during an online race. Just
delete the record.ini file and a new one will be created the next time
you use the track.

I only have the record on one track - Silverstone.  Even on the tracks that I
*haven't* done online, the AI still is faster...

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...

I don't think the track programs are very realistic though, I mean, there
are no coffee stains, no wrinkled pages, and no torn pages. It really brings
the whole thing down
