hi Roger
Yes the saved settings !!
that is also a source of irritation for me
no way to save file nor name the file ....geez
and to think that this the 5th game
yet it did not evolve to become better
just more irritating
anyway, thanks for the info
I will try the " higher tyre press " thing
best regards
