When I race quick race the car setups are never loaded unless I first go to "practise any circuit". I have the setups loaded at startup and even if I manually load them before a quick race it still doesn't apply them. Does anyone have any answers/comments on why this is so. _________________________________________________________________ David Zuidema Monash University Physics dept.

Quick Race Setups: ------------------ 1) If you have the game load your setups AND you set Seperate Quailfying and Race Setups to "Yes", then when you enter Quick Race, the car setup will be equal to your QUALIFYING setup. 2) If you go into Practice Any Circuit then go into Quick Race, your car setup will be equal to what it was for Practice Any Circuit. That is why you should always go into Practice Any Circuit and verify the setup before going into Quick Race.
I used to be convinced that this was true, but my little bro' was convinced it wasn't true so I did a test; I save the setups, noting down exactly what the one for the "quick race" track was, then started up again with GPlap running and selected Quick Race instead of Main Menu. The setup was correctly loaded. Perhaps the cars always feels so bad at the start of a race that we assume that the setup is wrong, or perhaps this has changed between version 1.01 and 1.05. Don't you just hate it when little brothers turn out to be right? Chisa -- Gizmo -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Launchpad is an experimental internet BBS.

I could never get the setups to load at startup either. Have no idea why. Scott
