Definitely try to turn down the mirror update rate in the core.ini file if you
want more fps. I get about 20fps in car view and all detail options on at
1024*768 on my 300a OC'd to 450MHz with CL GB TNT AGP, and I can live with that.

We need to petition nvidia to get those OpenGL drivers working properly and fix
this mirror problem. If I could get 36fps in car that would be terrific.

I have the Beta one open GL patch plus the latest Diamond Drivers. I can get
36FPS in chase view but only around 20 in***pit view with 19 cars.....are
there particular things I could turn off to make it better?  I already
reduced the mirrors to Cars only and I havn't yet tweaked the core.ini. All
suggestions gratefully recieved,.

Running a D550 AGP & PII 350. Managed to get GPL to run 800x600 last night
after installing latest Diamond drivers and upgrading Asus Bios to 1007 beta
on a P2BS. Also thinking about overclocking to 112MHz on the board which I
guess might help if its stable.
