can F1 cars in GP3/GP3-2000 race very far in oval tracks?

Hi .. I downloaded an oval track last night for GP3-2000. A nice change from other tracks. However, I find that my Williams car can only last 4 or 5 laps everytime I race. I always get engine problems. Do others experience this as well? Thanks. [email hidden]

You must be driving Montoya's Williams. dave henrie "s k y l a r" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:051020010732018507%[email hidden]...

Yes seriously I was ... tried again this morning and the engine just died after a few laps .. so my question is: does F1 cars in GP3 & GP3 2000 not suited for oval tracks? > > You must be driving Montoya's Williams. > >dave henrie > > ROFL!

I remember in a desperate attempt to enjoy GP3 early on - I tried an oval someone made. It slowed after a few laps - this was because for some reason - Crammond believes that after your skid-plank has worn down - it slows the car down. Anyhow - raise your car ride height a little - may solve the problem Doug

This is actually a form of penalty which, if you had read the f***kng manual, makes perfect sense. btw Playing oval tracks in GP3 is sacriligious IMO. ; )

What would make sense would be for your race result to be nullified AFTER the race if your plank wears down too much. You know - like REALITY. I thought about reading the fucking manual - but it's 99% the same fucking manual as you get with GP2 which is 80% the same fucking manual (with the same glaring track map errors) as you get with GP1. >btw Playing oval tracks in GP3 is > sacriligious IMO. ; ) Playing GP3 is sacriligous IMO - it's a pile of crap Doug
