Being pedantic, Reims was used in 1966 - the first year of the 3 litre
format. Obviously not all of the cars had 3 litre engines for that race
though.

Thanks for the correction! Sorry to all! :-(

I also like to think that Papyrus would certainly not lose any existing GPL
customers if they added "packs" to the sim. Most of the development costs
would have been booked against GPL and, therfore, return on expenditure
would be certainly better with the add-ons.
This "game" could have a life far in excess of anything else either previous
or current: A 1950's F1 pack; a 1.5 litre Era pack; a mid-sixties Sports
Prototype pack; a Can-Am pack........man alive, the possibilities make this
old mind boggle!! :o)

I have heard it referred to (not by a Francophile) as "RHEM", yet have also
heard it pronounced as "REEMS".

More like "remz" without emphasis on the "e".
