when overtaking a ferrari the car turns from red when it's in front of
me to blue when it's behind me, looking in the mirrors. this doesn't
happen all of the time, only now and again.
doppler effect anyone?
believe it or not it's quite annoying. overtake a ferrari, suddenly
see a blue car in the mirror, where did he come from?, panic,
hello fence.

% i have a p200, voodo1 3dfx, and have to turn about 1/2 the textures
% off to get a decent fps. car textures are on in front, and off in the
% mirrors, and mirror detail is set to cars only.

In ICR2, there were two colors for each car: the textured paintjob and
a plain coat of paint. The latter one was used by the game when you
unchecked the "car textures" option. Sometimes, people painting new
car sets forgot to also change the untextured paint, which led to the
same effect: a car looked quite differently in textured and untextured
version.
Assuming that Papy adopted the same approach for GPL, it's possible
that one of the Ferraris has the wrong basic color. If this be the
case, we only have to find out where the untextured color is stored
and change it.

ok, i'll try to find out if it's always the same ferrari, and tell
everyone which one it is, if this is the case.

Are you sure its a Ferrari and not the red Coventry? The base color used
when the texture is turned off is located in the 3do. All cars of a team
use the same 3do. The four "Coventries" are painted in dark blue, light
blue and light red. As base color in the 3do Papy used the light blue. So
it cant be changed until you create a new team for every color.

woops. i got it a bit wrong. it was indeed the coventry as driven
(slowly :-)) by Bonnier. appologies for insulting coventry drivers by
saying it was a ferrari. i guess the structure of 3do objects means
a patch wont be forthcoming....
and another thing, mike parkes' home town is given as Surrey, England,
in driver.ini, which we all know isn't a town at all! it should be
Richmond, Surrey, England. so there!
