I hav finally got some free-time on my hands and am wanting to get into GPL. So, where do I start? I picked up a copy of the game and downloaded the patch and bought a Logitech FF wheel. Are there any good sites for newbies or alternatively just sites with good strategies, hints etc? THanks in advance, M.

You should look at my beginner's guide at http://www.legendscentral.com/gplintro.shtml When you're done their pop along to our GPL forum if you have any questions. We also host the excellent Lights Out Racing track guides as part of our site here: http://www.gmmhost.co.uk/gmmhost/legendscentral/LOR/trackguides/gpl/index.ht ml Cheers Phil Lee Legends Central Admin http://www.legendscentral.com

After you have some times for all tracks sign up for GPLRank http://gplrank.schuerkamp.de and kiss your life goodbye. I'm on semi-holiday (still working but wife's out of town for 2.5 weeks!) and what am I doing? Lap after lap of the 'Ring. Dale.

Attach 'go faster' stripes to your monitor. Then you have to: 1. Practise. 2. When you think you are done practising: Repeat from step one until fridge is empty. 3. Refill fridge. 4. Goto 1. Jon Andersen, needs to refill his fridge
If Jon Andersen, GPL Rank -57.34, needs to refill his fridge then I (GPL Rank -7.73) need to move into a grocery store!

You just need to buy a significantly bigger fridge ;-) Jon Andersen, considering buying asn additional fridge, even though he is not addicted to GPL (GPL is bad, food is good)
Yo! If I were addicted, then I would wake up in the morning, remembering silly dreams about winning races in the BRM. Well, I don't. Winning races in the BRM is impossible. But I frequently get quite annoyed with my alarm clock, as it always disturbs me when I'm about to pass a Lotus with my Cooper at the end of the race. That %�#"#�! clock has stolen a considerable amount of victorys from me. Jon Andersen, hates his alarm clock

Then maybe I'd deserve to be on the same track with you two. As it is, I only see you when you lap me...<g> Eldred -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett F1 hcp. +16.36...Monster +366.59... Never argue with an idiot.
