GPL: Did you knew this?

By accident I found something out that I never knew before...
Maybe the rest of the world does know it, maybe it's printed in
capitals in the manual, maybe it was on CNN, but I didn't knew about
this. So for all the people who didn't know either:

In the replay mode, if you click in ff or rewind, and you click a
second time, the replay rate doubles. Click again and the replay rate
is 3. You can speed up the replay x 16!

Now everybody's probably laughing at me cause this is a well-known
fact, but I found it quite a nice feature....

Thanks.  I did not know this feature.  Great for capturing your pole lap
replay before the start of an online race...

What about the opposite effect - repeatedly pressing the up arrow on the number keypad progressively slows the frame rate down to practically nothing for slow motion replays.  I confess it took me a long time to discover that one, and I bet there at least some other people who haven't spotted it yet.

Thanks for that Mark! I went out and deliberately caused a crash (offline of
course) so I could test it........

I already Knew about this  and, yes, you can got to 16 times backwards too
Something people may not know is that you can press v or shift v when in
your car, then press escape then enter, make sure you are on direct , not on
replay, and your car will still be in the pits. If you are in your car when
pressing escape enter, your car will no longer be in the pits. I seem to
remember this not working offline though, but the sequence i mentioned has
to be correct, so I may have to check that out one day( i never race offline
nowadays). Obviously this is a "useless peice of information) but i just
thought it was worth mentioning. :o)
Cheers
