THis is a prob with GP3 (and GP3-2k).
1. Yes, everytime you pit, it will reset your tyres and feul. Major pain.
Also check your tyre selection when in race pitstops too.
2. The car is like an automatic where there is always acceleration when in
gear. If you select first and don't hit the gas pedal, you're already doing
30kms per hour. When spinning, it is a pain to correct, but if you hold in
a gear change button, it acts like a clutch and most times allows you to
correct. But get on teh grasss and sayonora...
But despite the graphics, it's the best offline F1 (modern) racing to be had
(and the new 3D sounds shits all over GPXPATCH -sorry guys, had to say it
about the sounds) but GPXPATCH with the onscreen timing is the bees knees.
