I can imagine it. Mexico has some pro's: - a very looooooooooong front-straight - a great last corner - many different types of corners However my reasons to place Mexico only eight: - after te hairpin, there are just to much corners. One or two left-right combinations less would make it perfect IMO. - A lap last too long, too much of the same. Although laps at Spa, Rouen and the Ring are longer, they are more interesting. - too flat - boring scenery - Mexico doesn't mean much to me. No memories, no legend such as Spa, Monaco, Zandvoort (My dad has driven the circuit on his pre-war motorbike in the 60s) and the Ring grtngs, hgrm PS: my top-11 is elsewhere in this thead

You are such a moron -- I cannot believe that you would rank Spa #5!! Mexico may be my favorite track, but even I can tell you that Spa is obviously far superior to Spa, Spa, Spa, or Spa, and, in my opinion, you are a complete idiot for this oversight. Unfortunately, though, since GPL does not have NASCAR Heat's "Change Underwear" feature, I will not be playing GPL for much longer, which makes this argument purely academic anyway. ;-) -- JB In article <8ntpls$lnl$[email hidden]>, "Trevor Pavitt" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Come on, admit it -- all the rest of you are masochists, too! <G> I like Mexico because I NEVER get bored there -- and the last turn and long straight give me *just* enough time to inhale and exhale before getting back into the interesting parts!

I never liked Mexico, didn't drive there often, untill I had to learn it for last year's the IGPLC league race. Learned it quickly, started to love it straight away, and everybody agreed after the race that Mexico is a fantastic place for online races. Mexico is like Monaco, Mosport, Brands and the Ring: Hate it at first, but when you learn how to drive the tracks, they become the best tracks in GPL! Andre

Now you take that back... GPL has "MADE" me change my shorts on several occaisons. And what do YOU know of Spa vs Spa? Have you driven either? I personally think Spa is vastly superior to Spa or Spa, but that is just my opinion. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8nus00$g22$[email hidden]...

Yea, sure, GPL DOES have a "Change Underwear" feature, but it ONLY supports a standing change -- there is NO WAY that you can enable this feature to force the underwear change to occur WHILE you are driving. This is TOTALLY unacceptale to me, and I can't see how the rest of you numbskulls can take this sitting down. Furthermore, I think I know a thing or three about Spa, and I am more than qualified to compare it to Spa.

Since I have custom pedals, I can put on my underwear with both legs at one time. I don't NEED the fancy smancy 'change while you drive" feature found in NH because my pedals can already do that.
