Has anybody ever succesfully finished a 1.1. offline race?
Whenever I try, GPL won't count my first lap.  After first lap my position
as GPL states it, is 20, although nobody passed me!
When I take a look on my laptimes, the first lap will read "xxx". This seems
to me ***!
I don't think I'm good enough for online racing, but to get there, I'd like
to train my skills offline - but under these circumstances it's definetely
not worth it. I once managed to get into third after Hill and Clark in
Monza, yet GPL counted me on 20!
If you know any *** and offensive cursing, you'd probably not come even
close to my feelings.
Give me GPL 1.2! Now! (1.0 is no alternative, as I really dig the FF)

Well with 1.1, you will have online problems as well!

It is a known bug, but I have never heard of it happening ALL the time!
