Yipeeee Indeed! Congratulations Chris! -- don New GPL Program Covers for Converted Tracks: http://www.ianparker1.clara.co.uk/clara.net/i/a/n/ianparker1/webspace/gpl/
I can't even remember my first race win in GPL. I wish I'd saved the replay. I _think_ I did it at Kyalami. For you now though, the sky's the limit :o) Soon you'll be alble to win AI races from behined 'at the drop of a hat'. I can start dead last and lead by Curve Grande if I get the start absolutly right these days - with the default setup! ...yeah, I should patch the AI :) Chris Bloom wrote:

At last I have managed to beat the AI in a F1 race at Monza. After qualifying second I dropped to sixth before Curve Grande. At the end of the third lap I was third behind Clark and Hill. The next lap I got past Damons old man and on the penultimate lap I managed to slip by Clark going into Ascari. The last lap I took as easy as I dared just making sure Jim didn't get close enough to take me out under braking. I am now mentally exhausted, I think four of my race laps were faster than my qualifying time. I'm actually shaking. I think I need a stiff drink. Better get to the liquor store before it shuts. This deserves some celebration!!! Yipeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats!! Beating the ai in GPL is quite an accomplishment, one I haven't quite mustered yet. -- Don Burnette Dburn in N3 and Legends ICQ# 74084566 "Chris Bloom" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > At last I have managed to beat the AI in a F1 race at Monza. > > After qualifying second I dropped to sixth before Curve Grande. > At the end of the third lap I was third behind Clark and Hill. > The next lap I got past Damons old man and on the penultimate > lap I managed to slip by Clark going into Ascari.
