Zeke, all you 'gota know is FD is a blast! Enjoy!! Put that F2 engine
in the F1 chassis and see what fun it is to be able to catch a spin
before it happens and actually feel what it is like at Rouen to KNOW you
are in that hairpin at the bottom of the hill and DRIVE through it
instead of
hoping you won't go thunk against those buried tires. Original GPL is
the greatest, but FD is golden. FD is pure fun. Have fun!
