GPL replay question

Hi all,
This might be a real stupid question but here goes, you know in GPL replay mode
when you see that red circle with the arrow? Does that mean that the available
memory for the replay has been used up and the replay is "overwriting" itself?

The other night I ran an 8:45:xx in a Cooper at you know where. NO NOT MONZA!!
That laptime broke my previous pb by about three seconds. After I ran that lap,
I drove about another half lap before spinning off. I figured I would pause at
that time and save my pb. So I went to the replay and I only have a portion of
my previous lap and that damn red circle with the arrow seems to be screwing
with me. I couldn't seem to find the beginning of where my replay started and
the replay controls were just screwy. Needless to say I didn't save my pb. Oh
well, I still have my 8:48.xx to look at.

Yup thats what it means

U can extend the replay length, by adding this to your core.ini

[ Replay ]

replayMemoryOverride = 18000

The 18000 is the amount of memory u wish to allocate, personally I'd say allocate
no more than 1/2 your ram.  For just hotlapping 18000 (abit less than 18mb) will
save alotta laps, probably 3-4 at the ring maybe more.
