I ask again..... why does Eldred get so much attention :-)
He's got a 40 handicap or something, that makes him a GPL god in my books
:-)
Critiques of Eldred's GPL replays
After Eldred, a self-described GPL 'slowpoke' who ran dedicated servers, shared his personal-best replays, Jon Andersen and others analysed them. They found him smooth and controlled but recommended using higher gears in slow corners to reduce wheelspin, and posted gear-change counts comparing him with fast drivers.

Because he's from Detroit.
I've watched you replays once, and here is the verdict from the Norwegian
jury:
Not bad. Not bad at all. Smooth, clean and in control almost everywhere. The
line isn't too bad, though there are some early turn ins. Braking points are
on the safe side.
You've got a potential for much faster laps than this.
1. You drive too carefully.
You are not driving on the edge. The tires are not squealing, i.e. you are
not using all the grip available. Your turn ins are too whimpy. You should
make a quicker and more decisive move when turning in. The front wheels
should point inside the apex for a moment when turning in. When done right,
you should hear the tires squealing and achieve a slight four wheel drift
(preferably at the optimum slip angle). this enables you to accelerate
harder at corner exits. Watch G.Huttu's replay at Silverstone. Study his
entry to the second turn. Now, that's an aggressive turn in. At corner exit
you can accelerate harder. There is too little tire squealing going on when
you drive. You drive like you have paid for the car.
2. Wrong choice of gears in the Lotus
I noticed that you used 1st gear too often in the Lotus. I rarely use 1st
gear in the Lotus. I use 1st at the start, and at 2 right hand corners at
Mosport. Using 1st gear is a waste of time in the Lotus. You'll either spin
or accelerate to slowly to avoid wheel spin. At Mosport, you used a too low
gear all the time. Try a higher gear, and the car gets easier to handle, and
you lap times will probably improve.
3. Braking
Braking points are on the safe side. I suggest you keep it that way until
you are comfortable with more aggressive turn ins. Later on, you may wan't
to do something with your braking technique (as you grow familiar with left
foot braking, you'll learn how to balance the car by using both pedals
simultaniously), but I see no immediate need for you to alter your braking
at this point.
Conclusion:
There is a potential for improvement. Slightly more risky driving will
improve lap times. If the tires don't squal, you are not on the edge.
Someday, Eldred. Someday you will have a negative GPLRank.
Keep on GPL-ing

Eldred was the first slowpoke to come out of the closet. He gave the
slowpokes a name. Besides, he has been driving GPL for 2 years, and is an
asset to the GPL community by putting up 2 dedicated servers.
The GPL community simply wouldn't be the same without Eldred.

hehehe, ok :-)
I think there were a lot more slowpokes around like myself, he was just the
one who refused to give up his seat on the virtual bus, if you know what I
mean :-)
Support Eldredism....for a brighter, negative ranked future!!!! Yeah!
P.S. I'd be willing to give a dedicated server if yiz all don't mind me
doing it on a 33k modem....any takers? :-)

Actually, both. A highly skillfull player would probably benefit from using
lower gears because of the better acceleration, but for the rest of us the
better acceleration usually makes us spin, thus we should use higher gears.

I don't know what setups you are using, but I recommend you to DL Huttu's
http://www.kolumbus.fi/ghuttu/
and try them out or at least take a close look at the gear ratios.
Personally I keep a safe distance to the ones beginning with "GH2", (45/60
diff is something I won't be able to handle for a long time yet!) but the
ones
with just "GH" are older versions more suited for amateurs like myself.
My best times are close to yours at most tracks but for Spa and the Ring,
but the replays look a lot different. I'm all over the place where you seem
to
be well in control. I can't but agree with Jon, you drive too carefully!
"A squealing tire is a happy tire".
A bit less downshifting and a bit more aggression will surely bring new
pb's.
Never surrender!

Not in the Lotus. The Lotus has quite a bit of torque available at lower
revs. With the exception of 1 turn at Mosport and at the start of a race,
there is really no need to use 1st gear. It will only make the wheels spin.

Yeah, I'm not too fast but i find that the faster guys keep it a gear
higher.
I took the first corner at Kylami in 1st for 2 years, Now I'd jsut lock up
and spin out if I did it, you need to go a gear higher and make the car
4-wheel drift more to keep the revs up.... works great when done right.
I still don't dare this technique in Nurburg :-)

Hehe, Eldred you old smoothy. I remember telling you the same thing
over a year ago when I first saw a reply of yours at Monza in the
Ferrari. You DO (or should say did as I haven't seen your current
replays) look smooth and well under control when taking corners, so it
seems almost impossible to imagine that all that smoothness is about to
degenerate into one big accident if you try to push it just a little bit
more. It just looks like you've got so much in hand that I personally
cannot conceive where it is that you're most likely to come a cropper
and that's what makes it personally difficult in telling you what you
should be concentrating on the most.
If you were doing something obviously wrong then I'm sure the guys here
could point this out to you pretty quickly. Perhaps you should try some
more ragged (kamikaze driving if you like) and then let us have a look
at those. If we could see those then maybe we would be able to spot
where it is that things are most likely to go wrong (your most obvious
mistakes). We've seen your best now let's see when you're all over the
