Hi Ian,

so does it model tyre wear according to drving style? Are lock-ups
having any effect on tyre wear? That smoke must be coming from
somewhere when you lock up, I hope it's not the driver's "exhaust" ;-)

cheers,

uwe

If you don't know about LAN, IP, and interface design, you surely
missed up on Indian programmers! ;-)

It's the little Crammond dwarf in the back seat lighting up a cig.
I thought this was in the readme? ;-)

No need at least for GP4.
The patches will do fine. :)
The next best simulator will definitely NOT be Crammond's.

I don't see the need to give the GP3 team and Geoff Crammond any
sympathy for criticism - he's got my money and I bet that's all he
cares about!
