Unfortunately, the online aspect of SCGT stinks, so you're out of luck there. -John "Gryphon" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

As you probably know by now, online SCGT is not a realistic hope... but you can race sportscars online. The guys behind the LeMans mod for F1-2001 are setting up an online league, read more here: http://forum.racesimcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=177 Mikkel Gram-Hansen -- Administrator http://www.racesimcentral.com

Does F1-2001 really work online? And with that I don't mean a grid with 4 cars, where everyone has a T1 connection, and a latency below the 20ms... Remco

No, it doesn't, per your notes. -John >

Gryphon.....you obviously can't set up SCGT very well. SCGT can be set up so that you haven't a hope in hell of beating the AI cars. Simply make them 100%,then tick allow modified vehicles. Now buy all the cars in the game one by one and modify them to the limit. Then buy yourself a basic car and race. This has the effect of making the AI cars approx twice as fast as you. Shorten this disadvantage by modifying your car a little... This works best with a nice full grid of 24 and all GT1 cars. Have fun Morgan

With F1 2001 I've been in a 10 car field that was ok and a 4 car field that was crap. Basically EVERYONE MUST HAVE BROADBAND and they must have a hellacious server. F1 2k1 takes a ton of bandwidth...I've heard of one guy getting 20 cars but since I've never seen this...I can't comment...it IS better than SCGT & F1 2000, at least you can practice online while waiting for drivers, but still the pings must be low and everytime a driver joins your screen hiccups... Back to the original poster, there was a league on Yahoo but they limited each race to several 4 car heats... dave henrie

I have not tried it myself, but a few of my fellow danish GPL'ers have tested online , and as far as I remember they had "ok" results with 4-5 cars as long as everybody had good connections. The real problem comes when the cars reach over 300km/h the the lag get's multiplied by a huge factor. The LeMans/Fia GT/ALMS cars are slower so the chance for an acceptable online experience is bigger. Please ask in the forum I linked to... they know a lot more about this than I do ;) You could also try the foum at http://www.simbin.com they have a lot of know-how on F1-2001.
