  With all due respect ------------ and perhaps I have not enough
sounds going so as to get a good frame-rate,  but -----------

   Musical SCORE? ------------------------

   I have never heard any music ------------ unless you want to call
that wonderful racket that the FERRARI makes "music".

  I think this clown needs to go back to the penny arcade and try to
get a gorilla doll with the "crane-jaws" before they run out!

   I suspect he was in some other video game at "DISCOVERY ZONE"
rather than being involved in GPL.

  MUSIC??????????????    Jeez ........................get real

I'm not sure why they got an arcade racer to write a review of this.
It makes no sense- it would be like asking a professed Quake2 fanatic
to write a review of Chessmaster6000- of course they are going to
think it is too difficult and made only for someone who wants to
(quote, sort-of) "take weeks to get good at a game." ;-)

GPL is a sim, and I thank god they didn't put any "music" in it, or an
"arcade" setting. I wouldn't mind an option to... well, just restart a
damn race after my third failure to make the first lap. But I respect
that it isn't there. Really instills the notion that that first lap is
very tricky buisness- that is a huge part of racing.
