that's my main gripe with GP3... the car doesn't lose front-end grip
when following closely in corners, and the effect of slip-streaming
seems to extreme, certainly moreso than any F1 race i've ever watched.
F1RC seems to require better timing than GP3 in this respect because you
don't gain anywhere near as much speed by following. this is good :)
yes, i figured that would be a problem given the other drivers refuse to
move from the racing line... i expect that will be covered in the
patch/next version. oh well, in any case, ghost lapping is a blast.

Maybe you should try the demo. You'll see a big difference in the way you
have to approach Eau Rouge in F1RC. In the demo, it's set to Pro mode, which
gives you 40% ABS and anti-slide help. Even so, it's more difficult than
GP3. A 1:43 is a fast time.
