Grand Prix legends question

I have downloaded some stepup for different cars and have put them in C:\Program Files\GPL 2004 DEMO\players\racer\setups. These seem to work in single player mode but not in world championship mode. What am I doing wrong. They are not even listed to select. I have patched the game with all the official patches and am running windows xp sp2

It will also remember your selected Qually & Race setups. Each setup should be saved in \player_name\setups\ inside the particular folder for that track btw although you can use a setup for one track at another track by either saving to that folder or copying it in the setup page. hth, Malc.

Thanks for the information. I have figured out a way to get the set up to show I am still looking for a way to have speed dispayed on the screen in cockpit view. "Malc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:41a375c5$0$4023$[email hidden]...

Of course speed is irrelevent in racing as you already know since only lap times really matter.
