Yes, I'd heard too that there will be no GP3 (or Microprose are
keeping very quite).

Probably scratching their heads wondering how to outdo GPL!

anyway...

Try to see the full version, and how Monaco, Rouen and Nurburgring are
reproduced. The demo 's circuit (Watkins Glen) is perhaps the poorest one.
And I don't think that the cars in GPL are worse than the ones in GP2.

I haven't heard the GP2 sounds, but I understand you could be right...

Try to be more carefull with your snipping. I don't believe (and the
number
of ">" chars show it) that Byron wrote the stuff you posted.
