I just have 2 Questions to pose to you guys. Question 1 I have just installed GPL for the first time and downloaded the d3d driver for it and it works fine, until I start a race, then there is a line in the midle of the screen aboout 2cm wide, flashing the rest of the track behind the hill. This happens to me on Kyalami. (I have only raced on Kyalami .....) It happens every time I race down the staight only. It only happens in races, not in training. It happens on all resolutions and even when I switch off all the graphics details. Have any of you got some ideas on how to solve this bug? My system. Athlone 750 nVidia GForce 200 MX 32mb 128mb RAM Direct X 8.0a Newest drivers for screen card downloaded middle of last month. I know that this used to happen on Quake when there were too many polygons visible in a map, but I'm not sure here. Hopefully a setting can fix this. Question 2 I'm racing the BRM and have it doing 1.29.73 lap times on Kyalami. I just wanted to know if this is a fast time, moderate or just plain succy?

That's not bad but you should be getting in the 25's for a reasonably quick lap in the BRM. Try something a little easier to drive like the Ferrari. You'd probably get into the 1.23's relatively quickly with a nicer handling car. BTW, the BRM world record at Kyalami is around 1.19!! Have a look at GPLrank http://newgplrank.schuerkamp.de/ This is the best way of seeing how good you are. Kev

Kyalami Eagle 01:23.78, even Eagle can you quite fast :> Not my favorite that track
My best is 1:22.80 and my time is #1697 on GPLRank. The best time (by superhumans) is 1:17.67.
