The following is from Alison Hine's excellent GPL FAQ:
http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~alison/gpl/faq.htm

5.3 Why can't I race against the AI while driving a Trainer?

Actually, you can. You have to change one small item in your player.ini
file. I recommend you create a new player just for racing in each of the
Trainers. For example, I have three drivers: Alison Hine (for the GP
car), Ali-F2 Hine (for the Advanced Trainer), and Ali-F3 (for the Basic
Trainer).

Once you've created the extra player or two, open the GPL players folder
(by default, C:\SIERRA\gpl\players) and then open the folder for one of
the training players. For example, I would open
C:\SIERRA\gpl\players\Hine__Ali-F2. Now, using a text editor, edit the
file called player.ini.

Look for a parameter called driverRating. It's in the [ Personal
Information ] stanza. Change the value of driverRating to 2 for the
Advanced Trainer, or 1 for the Basic Trainer.

Now, when you race as one of these new drivers, the AI will go slower.
