GP3: Always Save Track Records patch released

Hi,

I've now made a new version of my old GP2 ASTR patch to make
it work with GP3. Part of the readme below.

Cheers,

You must have the "NoCD-patch" for GP3 for this program to work!

This is my old GP2 Always Save Track Records (for Grand Prix 2)
updated to work on Grand Prix 3.

In F1GP/WC the game didn't save track records unless you drove a 100%
race. This was a good feature as it was easy to beat the track records
if you only did a 10% race. You always had fuel for a full race
onboard as refuelling was not allowed, making it hard to go quick in a
100% race.

For some reason this feature is still left in GP2 and GP3. Since you
have refuelling in GP2 and GP3 it is just as easy or hard to break the
track records in a 10% race as it is in a 100% race. You could fill
the car with only 4 laps of fuel in a 100% race and break the record.

This patch makes GP3 save race track records even if you don't drive a
100% race.
