YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally won a race against the AI. Only a novice race and at Monza - but still I won. Battling with Hill and Clark and focusing on not making any of the usual blunders. Finally It was by the way in the Ferrari with Roland Ehnstr�ms setup - brilliant setup Roland - thanks Thomas Soerensen DGPLS Team Rumble Strip Racing

If his are the setups ending in the RE suffix, I wholly agree and would like to add my thanks. I've only had GPL for a few months, but I've found again and again that the 'RE' and 'WW' (sorry...wish I knew the name or I'd give credit here for these as well) setups do wonders for me. It was like getting into an entirely different car when I first found these setups and tried them with the Lotus. So thank you, RE and WW, whoever you are....

I have a Japanese OS and that's why the charcter set shows up as Japanese in the 'charset' heading, but I'm sending my newsgroup messages in plain text format. I just went through all of the option settings I could find that seemed relevant in my software, but I'm not sure I can send messages in any more basic a format than this. I would think that any 'automatic download' of Japanese fonts on your end would be a function of your newsreader software, though. Sorry for the hassle... if I knew how to fix it I would. Maybe someone will have a suggestion... I'm using MS Outlook Express (Japanese) version 6. Itazura

Just tracking this down a little, and believe it to be related to the setting in Internet Explorer (Outlook Express and IE share technologies between the apps) in Tools/Internet Options/Advanced tab in the Browsing section of Settings. When there is a check mark in the line "Enable Install On Demand (Other)" I believe that's where the prompt is generated. Try taking the check mark out, reboot and then open one of the messages again. -- Chris H.

Should also be helpful as the damn Koreans seem to have discovered spam in the last few months - my email is constantly asking me to d/l the Korean charset!

True. I just installed it when it asked me to long time ago (makes accidentally arriving on Asian websites a little more pleasing to the eye as well). Doesn't seem to make a difference to posting on newsgroups, other than my compose font changes when I reply to one of those messages.

I'll bump on the congrats ;)! My only near win was an Int Long race at Monza, and I ran out of fuel on the last lap! Sputtered through Vialone and coasted to a stop in Parabolica, argh ;)! Where might I find Roland's setups? And how do they compare to Alison Hine's? I don't have alot of time to develop setups, and prefer to concentrate on just driving and having fun. I really like Allison's setups, especially her Ferrari setups - the car is setup similarly to how a real 67 car would have been setup, and has a fantastic feel. I wouldn't want to switch to a go-kart setup, no matter how fast it is. Just tried her Eagle setup for WG and *wham*, by the second lap I'd bettered my PB and finally bested 1:10! Yeah I'm slow, but I'm consistent ;). I may be negotiating a team change. Kendt David Buttery <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<[email hidden]>...

IMHO, you will find Roland's setups impossible to drive if you're still in the 1:10 mark at the Glen. Maybe they just don't suit my driving style but I tried them and found them WAY looser than I can handle. Until you can get maybe 1:07 or so at the Glen, you should probably be spending more time practicing and learning the lines than fiddling with setups. Alison's setups can get you there just fine.

Kendt Eklund ([email hidden]) wrote on 01 Feb 2002: <snip> > Where might I find Roland's setups?<snip> http://www.kolumbus.fi/petenkoti/setups.html As far as how they drive goes... they're not for the complete novice - you'll need to feel reasonably comfortable about pushing the car quite hard (controlled slides around corners, etc) - but a reasonably experienced driver should find them fairly straightforward to get to grips with,as they give excellent feedback. At a guess, I'd imagine you'd need to be running in 1:07 at the Glen, sub-1:30 at Monza and 3:25 at Spa to want to use them ahead of Alison Hine's setups. Depends on your driving style, though - some people can go very fast indeed with Alison's setups. -- "After all, a mere thousand yards... such a harmless little knoll, really" - Raymond Mays on Shelsley Walsh.

Would you consider Maxx an alien? He did it to prove a point that the setup isn't the end-all solution...
