Your post made me laugh.

I was the first person here at r.a.s trying to drum up enthusiasm for the GT
mod months ago, and helped people fix their frame rate with some file
editing.

Thanks for all the advice though.

I think you're exaggerating a bit there. I've just checked the download
speed and I'm getting around 60kb/s, not far off the maximum download speed
I can get via cable. If you can provide a faster server, free of charge,
connected direct to the internet backbone of one of the top 10 European
ISP's then I'm sure SBDT will be glad of an additional mirror.

We did have some trouble earlier today coping with the unexpectedly high
demand for the mod but our server admin has been able to get more bandwidth
to cope with the download. This is one of the benefits of having a site
hosted by Boomtown.net, one of the largest ISP's in Europe.

Yes, I stand corrected.  The download was fairly fast, about 175 KBS.  But I
was wondering if I was ever going to get to the download screen though. :>)

Anyway, it was well  worth the wait - a very nice mod indeed.

  yes getting to the dload forum was painfully slow this morning...I was
looking for the mirror links to post on our league mailing list.  And I
completed several games of solitaire waiting for the forum pages to load.
The members list on the bottom, showed over 200 users online...:)

Downlaoding it right now from Mirror 1 at 15.5kBps (that's bytes, not bits)
because my ISP limits me to 128kbps...

1h 34min to go...

It's truly excellent, David.  I'm almost hoping that F1 2002 is delayed now
so that I get a chance to play this mod for a while!

It's possible to have BOTH games on your PC.
