My point was a m***one, nothing to do with the quality of the game.
Please try and  keep up.

Hmm, refusing to buy good quality racing sims on m***grounds?!?!

It's a shame you didn't refuse to buy a PC on the same grounds, that
would have been one less moron on the net.

Disagree. Maybe some people just want to spent the limited time the
majority of us can use in front of the computer with quality sims
instead of games. And I guess I'm not the only one who find arcade
races harder to play than sims. I mean, anyone who have a little bit
of interest in car handling will find GPL easy, compared to games with
hoax physics that do stuff one can not predict.

    I'm trying to figure that one out.  I seen this post and it didn't look
right so I had to say something.  I still may be wrong because it was 15+
years since I studied binary theory, so.. last I knew, in Binary,
10 = 0000-1010
9= 0000-1001
8= 0000-1000 (1+1=10..)
7= 0000-0111
6= 0000-0110
5= 0000-0101
4= 0000-0100
3= 0000-0011
2= 0000-0010 (1+1=2)
1= 0000-0001

    My post is not intended as anything more then a refresher course for me.

In maths, when dealing with binary one drops the leading zeros, i.e. 1+1=10
with 10 being the binary representation of the decimal number 2 (=0b00000010
or 0x02 for the C++ fans). Only in computing does one use byte notation.

What is a shame is your pointless argumentative nature.
So FIRC 2 is a good quality racing sim, is it ?  How would you know that ?
If it's anything at all like the first one, it will be a bug ridden,
unplayable mess of a game. You would pay for that ? That say's a lot for you
intelligence. An ignorant PC geek with no m***values.  You're a real
winner.

Thats cause some people werent meant to be racing drivers :) there mindsets
are wrong, sims give everyone a chance to race. No games are the market
claiming to be simulators are as good as GPL end of story. Thats a FACT!
Anyone saying otherwise has an opinion about as worthly of an audience as
Micheal Barrymore!

Arcade Sims, more playable by the masses are out there, but the fudged
arcade physics and appauling damage models make them little challenge, and
compared to GPL very unrewarding or lacking depth of play. Ive been playing
GPL for over 2years. Sure im hungry for a new sim (WSC) but none on the
market can satisfy my ***ion to adrenaline that GPL provides atm. GPL
will indeed rule for a while yet, till WSC comes out. N4, well great physics
(tyre model)  2 good tracks. ***cars no variation of chassis, over weight
under powered not my cup of tea, limited longevity, Sears is good fun but
the ovals zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Compare that to a Ferrari 333sp at Spa in
