GP2 first full race completed

Just completed a full race at Monza, I drove the #15 Jordan and qualified 12th
with a time of 1m.27.213 at pro level.
First of all I'd like to thank who ever posted first regarding setting the
frame rate to as low as possible, as now I can race with all details on my
system (P133) except sky and no textures in the mirrors. The CPU never got
above 110%  resulting in a very smooth and fast race.
I ended up finishing the race in 16th place, not so great. But I did manage to
complete the race without spinning out once and avoided a few big crashes. I
love watching as a CC tries to outbreak you and ends up locking the wheels up
and going into the sand. Also I saw Jean Alesi car blow white then black smoke
followed by alot of fire from the engine which looked really cool.
This sim is great but very hard, I can see that its going to take a long long
time before I can even finish in the top 10 on Ace level.
Oh, and this was using a T2 with steering help enabled but all driving aids
off.

Cheers...-David
