Whenever I'm approaching the guy holding the white flag beside the track, it
actually looks like a cow....just kinda watching the race.

Personally I have a lot more trouble these guys just don't wave the blue
flag for any AI when they ought to, and the AI happily ignore them anyway!

That's the trouble, the flags in the game only pertain to you. You won't see
another driver get the blue flag, even online.

I never had any problem with lapping the AI in GPL tho'... did you turn off
that automatic AI strenght adjust stuff (don't even remember what file it is
in, let alone what it was called)?

I know... was just ***in' because I still think these AI are blind
f'ing zombies!   ;)

Hype.  I locked it early on, but allowed some hype later on so the AI
race at realistic levels. Once you do 1:29 at Monza it's little use
having them still do no better than 1:30   ;)

Nevertheless, they don't grow brains as they get faster, and still drive
  into you like you weren't there in *some* corners. In others, it's no
problem - but I still consider AI passing behaviour one of the weakest
points of GPL.  This should have been patched long ago when 1.2 arrived,
imho.

Someone made some new flag guys.

If you search the forums at racesimcentral.com you should find the files.

Ya know, I always thought that there were cows grazing on the hill at
Spa.  I guess my Voodoo 3 2000 wasn't that great or I wasn't running
high enough resolution.
