I had exactly the same feeling, but was affraid to tell everybody,
affraid that everybody would laugh hysterically at me.
I did a lot of timing, and on my pc it's about 1.5 secs between real
time and gpl time at Monza. And my fps is around 37 too.
But this problem seems pc-dependant (hence the time differences
between you and me) and some people posted that they had no time
differences whatsoever. But before the patch nobody had this problem,
so let's just wait and see if it's ironed out in 1.2 ....
