I have come to the exact same conclusion. It seems like something odd i going on in there. Too bad if its true that they are cheating. I have raced with F1GP a couple of years now ,and never managed to come close to the Adelaide time you mentioned ( 1:07:997). Not until I used GPed and gave my car 999 hp:s - and even then it was pretty hard (1:07:863). I experimented with giving one of the AI -cars 716 hp:s (normal) and driving skills the best. Then I watched this car in the game. It could hardly do times under 1:10.! I had to increase the AI-grip A LOT until the car became competitive! Strange ha?

Cool! Maybe Im not so slow after all! It made me wonder too how were they able to go that quickly. I was able to do 1.09.716 in Adelaide and I know that it gave my best. Still they did times under 1.08. Maybe they got their batches from Benetton in 94. -- - Second place is first of the losers.(Ron Dennis) -
