Kaemmer, who had dominated recent events in the series, finished second
after a wild spin and difficulties with his Ford-Cosworth engine, while
Tony Johns rounded out the top three.

While you're there, review the pictorial storyboard of the Papy Cup
Monaco race, featuring over 50 screen shots from the actual race replay,
and see some exciting screen shots of my Eagle-Weslake soaring at the
Nurburgring!

Also, I'd like to thank all the readers who have sent me email.  My
inbox is overflowing, and I will respond to everyone as quickly as I
can, but I make no promises about when that will be!

The answer is no, there is no speedometer, but if you look closely at
the replay screenshots, in the upper right-hand corner you will see a
MPH display.  This can be configured to display in either MPH or KPH,
and shows the car's speed at the moment.

I was using a Diamond Stealth II S220 (Rendition 2x00) at 800x600.

My AGP Thriller arrived Friday afternoon, just after I did the
Silverstone report, so future shots will be done with that.  As far as I
can tell, image quality is identical; it's only in terms of frame rate
that the Thriller is superior to the Stealth.

The Thriller has the capability to do 1024x768, but the resulting image
files are much larger.  I may do a 1024x768 sample at some point but for
the bulk of the shots I'll stick with 800x600, because it seems to be
the best compromise between resolution and image file size.
