Spending more time watching wrecks than playing

I know I'm not the only one doing this but last night i think i spent
about 4 hours with the game running on my machine and 3 of those hours
were spent watching the replays in every possible camera angle of my
spectacular wrecks.

Hopefully tonight , I'll be able to complete a few laps with out
spinning out uncontrolably and burning up  :)

i had one really cool wreck coming out of the pits at Spa where I
accidently bumped wheels with Mr. Clark and sent him flipping side
over side about 15 times.  I probably watched that one over and over
for 30 minutes  hehe

  Well, I wasn't watching any wrecks, but I did spend over an hour just
watching the Papy supplied replays.  They're entertainment unto
themselves.  Hell, I think I would have been happy paying $25 for just the
'Ring, Spa, and Monaco replays!

Aren't they awesome?  Including the replays was a great idea!  Not only
are they fun, but I think one can learn a lot from watching some of
them.

Did I imagine it, or was there intended to be an analysis function in
GPL. (I think I'm confusing CPR's crappy speed graph for something I
imagined was in GPL. Oh well...)

Analog speed-distance graphs were being done since early 60's. Any
chance of that in a future release? Or are we going the ICR/N2 route
again with replay files?
