I�m sorry GPL but I had to try F1 2000. After troubles with fawlty CD�s I finally had F1 2000 to run. It�s not a bad sim but the sim as well as modern F1 (a truly sim in that way) lacks something. GPL, my great love, has something beyond a great simulation, it is truly romantic and great, great, great. It�s fun to be able to run modern F1 in schedule with the championships but I�m sorry for Hakkinen, Schumacher and the rest to run on such boring tracks and miss those great circuits of Rouen, old Nurburgring, original Spa, Zandvort, Glen etc.. I hope they have a copy a GPL to see what real circuits, cars and racing can be. Per

Do you really think these boy's can be taught anything about GP racing, past or present, by a bloody computer game ?? I would probably guess that they are already pretty aware of their own history, but if you think that GPL can enlighten their boring lives, why don't you send them a copy each !

They'd have to, I doubt most of them would be brave enough try the real thing. Jan./sorry, just tired of this "real drivers don't play computer games"-rubbish. =--- slyDog wrote... > Do you really think these boy's can be taught anything about GP racing,past > or present, by a bloody computer game ??

A Copy of GPL to play while parading around the Hungaroring, ersatz Nurburgring, or any other of the modern yawn-inducing circuits would, I'm sure be welcome. They do, after all, have LCD displays on the steering wheels... slyDog <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:eIlT4.20326$UC.239914@news2-hme0... > Do you really think these boy's can be taught anything about GP racing,past > or present, by a bloody computer game ??
