GPL setups don't work?

    I downloaded some setups from Alison's page, unzipped them into my
gpl\players\charlie file, and yet I can't access them from the setup
page in GPL.  In fact, there doesn't even appear to be a setup option
for Watkins.  Is this a bug?  How do you load setups?  The "racing
companion" makes no mention of it.

The setups need to go into: \gpl\players\player_name\setups\track_name

The readme explains the different file extensions for each car and class
and they can be accessed by pressing the Car Setup button at the bottom
of the race weekend screen.

    Duh... I figured out what was wrong:  It saves a setup for EACH CAR, and
you can only use the setup FOR THAT CAR.  I was using a BRM, and the setups
I downloaded did not include any for the BRM.  That's why I was not finding
them.  I changed to a Lotus, and *voila*... there they were.
    Thanks, everyone!
