Looking at all the posts up to June 21...

I don't know if F1 2000 is a good representation of modern F1 or not.  I've
never driven an F-1 car, only attended a race a couple of years ago.
However, I do know we seem to be doing a great sim of F-1 politics on this
board :-)  If you hate it (I didn't care for it either), go to
http://gametz.com and dump the thing of on somebody else.  You may even come
out ahead!

You spent 4 hours a day posting. Who's surprised that you don't
remember all of your posts?

Somebody stating his opinion without childish attacks. At your
(guessed) age you should be past the "bully phase", should'nt you?

Greg,
I think you should just leave this guy alone.  He is clearly not the full
six-pack!  Not worth your brain cells replying to this stuff.

OK smart ass, show me in this thread where I said the individual
in question is a troll or idiot. I am starting to think they may apply
to you though :-)

I am. I didn't think I was bullying anyone. Perhaps you might be
a little to stressed out over this. My apologies for raising your
*** pressure.

Might... Yes. F1 2000's physics is way better than people have
expected. So it may be as good as GPL's physics.

Closer to the real thing than the other 2 sims you mentioned?
Yes... IMHO.
