hi Greg
nice to read your mssg
hmm perhaps the term decent framerate is subjective
I get around 20 ~26
but at the start it goes down to 9
but could still manage to
drive and maintain the lead .....
TEXTURE must be set to medium
I found texture did play a BIG part
I am running 22 cars showing
player car high
other cars low
strangely for me, pitlane objects on or off
did not do anything to the framerate
