Hey what the heck, thought I'd try some online racing.  After starting
winvroc I get the GPL version incompatible, all red squares the
instructions say check path (which is OK).  Any other options other than
uninstalling it?

u need gpl 1.2 patch available from papy.com

also sometimes the WinVroc installer may show the correct gpl location,
but browse to the gpl folder manually just to be sure

Ran my first couple of short races last night, a bit embarrassing, spun at
Silverstone and finished near the back, broke down at Monza (yes, Lotus and I
love it) after some contacts.  I think the shakes will stop during my online
racing eventually.  Great fun!  WinVROC is impressive, no problems with latency
or warping (granted only 2 experiences so far).  Rock solid.  Thanks to all who
helped create this excellent program/environment.  Keep up the good work!  -Keith

+) well just to prevent any confusion...

Winvroc has nothing to do with your race connection, all it does is help
you find races

Thanks for the clarification. Anyway, very handy program and accolades extended to the
folks that made GPL so effective online.  -Keith

Been racing online since January, still get all wigged out and shakey
when anywhere near other racers. I need to condition myself to ignore
the other cars and concentrate on driving! Hey look I am catching that
car . . . was!
