GPL has AI that will become better with you Speedy.  The more you race, the
better you get, the better the AI gets also.  Since it was only the second
time at the circuit, the AI isn't totally up to your speed standards.

Wait until you can do 1:26's and the rest of the field smokes you ;-)

the AI is designed to go faster as you get faster, check your read me...
this can be altered using the AI Tweaker in the files section here

I think the AI at Silverstone is a little slower than the AI at the
other circuits, relative to the maximum possible speeds there.  This
makes it easier to qualify on the pole relative to the AI, and easier to
beat them.

I believe the AI is a bit slower because the Papyrus engineer that
developed the AI lines (the *.lp files in the track folders) for all the
circuits didn't really like Silverstone and didn't race there very much,
so he never really nailed a couple of the corners.  Therefore the AI
lines are a bit slow in a couple of corners and as a result the AI lap
times are somewhat farther away from Wolfi/Greger-type times than at the
other tracks.  

In fact, in general Silverstone seemed to be one of the less popular
tracks at Papyrus, although some people liked it quite a bit.
Personally, I love Silverstone!  I guess it just suits my style.

I like it because its easier.  For this reason I find it pushes me to
the limit a lot more.  FWIW I pretty much like every turn at
Silvastun.

Time to crank open the rpy 2 lp convertor then !   (Now whose driving
line shall we have?)
