I'm running gp3 on a P3 500 with a CLAP ddr and the new detonor drivers,
224MB RAM. When I race the starts are slow which i can handle, but whenever
I run close behind another it seriously slows down with the op spiking to
about180!!! I'm running at 25.6fps and at 1024x760. If it was lots of cars,
ok, but just one. Has anyone got a simiar system, how does it run? thanks in
advance

Try setting it to manual and 23fps. I run full detail 1280x1024 23fps on my
pIII 600 Geforce DDR Detonator 5.33 at under 100% almost all the time. only
very rarely does it go above and then not my much. It's much better at 23pfs
than automatic.

I've just won my first race at Monaco and it felt just fantastic

Huh.
I have a p2 400 192 mg ram, voodoo3 2000 PCi-
I Run with all graphics on except in the mirrors(kurbs smoke, no texture). I
race other cars at 1024x768 under 100 PO allways. I practise in 1240x 1028
with no cars, under 100 PO all the time. The saving grace of this game is
how well it runs.

Try running it with a FF wheel !!
180% proc !!!!  Athlon 800 128mb  Geforce2
The Physics are ***and the sense of track elevation , pathetic.
Also whilst racing Karts in my younger-lighter-fitter days NEVER has a wet
track shone back at me like a "perfect" mirror, a good case of style over
content.

Running with a MS FF wheel. Never go over 100%, even in Monaco

I've got a Ferrari FF wheel and FF make no difference in GP3. It does slow
things down by about 20-25% in F1 2000 though.
