- GPL steering linearity and Ackermann geometry 1998-04-12 · 58 postsCharles Mak praised GPL's physics but asked for GP2-style speed-sensitive steering. A long discussion followed on linear versus non-linear steering settings with different wheels, why steering feels heavier at speed, and Ackermann geometry, explained by Jim Sokoloff, Matthew Knutsen and Doug Milliken. A side quarrel involved Bart Brown and an anonymous critic.
- Comparing Grand Prix 2 and IndyCar Racing II physics and sound 1996-11-05 · 31 postsAlan Pengelly compared the physics models of GP2 and ICR2 in detail, finding GP2 easier to drive below the limit. The discussion then centred on GP2's lack of audible opponent engines. David Gary called this unrealistic, while others cited Damon Hill saying he rarely hears other cars, and John Wallace argued that F1 drivers rely on mirrors instead.
