GPL; in Indy...

I just got the Converter working, and my first whole race was in
Indianapolis, the IMS from N3.

And as an European I must admit that only now I start understanding
the ovals, too... ;-)

I was driving a Ferrari with the default setup, only less gasolin for
the 7 lap race. All drivers were present, and J. Clark won - who else?
His speed was 225.5 km/h (sorry I do not understand the miles... :)

I was 9th, 13.92 seconds behind Clark. But I wasn't disappointed at all!
Quite the contrary. D. Hulme was 8th, 12.77 seconds behind Clark. Just
a couple of laps more and I had passed him... But what was best is that
the great Rindt, who was 10th, was 28.54 seconds behind the winner! So
he was no threat to me! My best lap was 56.94. Don't laugh! That was
just my first real race in Indy... (N3 doesn't count...)
