After buying the game a week ago, I managed to win the World Championship tonight in Ace mode at 10% race distance. So having seen the "winners" screen, dont hold your breath its pretty boring. I was hoping Microprose might have put a prize for the first winner in Ace mode like maybe Driving a real F1 car in France at the F1 school, which incidentally was the prize they offered for the quickest lap, recorded at the last ECTS in London. Unfortunately I was not allowed a go at the show.But alas no such luck. :( I won the championship using the keyboard and cant wait to get a descent wheel/pedal system. Was I the first ? all the best, great news group Baz Barrow

I _think_ the URL is http://www.holobyte.com/gp2/contest.html. First prize is a trip to a racing school. Yeah, wait till you get a joystick/wheel and then turn steering help off. I thought I was good until I turned them off, now I`m not so sure <g> I remember on the first game when you won the title it told you to try higher levels/longer distances until you had won at ace and 100%. Maybe we`ll get a more exciting screen then, maybe not. BTW, nice one on the championship! Mark _________________________________ "..every lap I think `Oh bollocks!
