GPL: Save race facility?

  It seems that N4 has no facility to save a race partway through racing.
Does this mean that Papyrus (or anyone else for that matter) has also NOT
updated GPL with this facility??
  Please tell me I am wrong... :))

You're not wrong.  Then again, I wouldn't advise trying to save a VROC
race in progress anyways.  ;-)  GPL really don't need it.

suppose that makes any difference to my question?? :)

Sorry, my friend, I can't help ya there.  Can I suggest something less
than GP length races if you're pressed for time?  Not like there's any
pit strategy to play out.

it's not a question of being pressed for time. it's the need to answer the
phone or the door or nature's calls. other sims have it, so why not gpl?

I wondered if someone would notice that...<g>  Lotus PB's on 10 different
tracks, overall PB's on 7.  But,  I still have a long way to go.  Negative is
still far off, unless I get lucky at Nurburgring...<g>

Speaking of the Ring, you do realise you only need to get the Eagle 'round
there in 8m49s or better to go sub-400 on MonsterRank? -Piece of cake
surely!! ;-)
