GPL: replay sizes...whoa

I clipped a 15s. clip
(http://www.racesimcentral.net/~jeffreyh/gpl/eaurouge_owie.zip ) of a shunt in Eau
Rouge and the file is 285k!  And they don't zip very well either.  I guess
there isn't a lot of redundant data in those replay files.  No wonder I can
only save 2 minutes of replay time!

The replay was actually for the person who asked if you could flip the car
over in GPL.  This replay is submitted as evidence.  I was struggling to
catch a Ferrari and Brabham fighting for position and went a little hot into
Eau Rouge.  I got the entry into it completely crossed up and my right rear
tagged the guard rail.  What ensued was a pretty wild ride.  After I came to
a stop, I had the quit the race and just gape at the replay for a while.  It
was just TOO nuts...

Try going reverse direction and head on into cars at Monza on the straight.
or go to Zandvort on the back section there a some nice hills to launch off
of<G>. I saw nothing but sky in chase view!
