I've had GPL since the day after it was first released as a demo on the net (I was a bit slow!) and I have only ever managed to get under 1:10 (at GP level in the Lotus) on two occasions, and even then it was only *just* under 1:10. If you are managing 1:09's after only a week, you have nothing to worry about at all, (except jealous rivalry?) I think the current Internet record is in the 1:06 area? but believe me 1:09 is pretty damn good anyway. 8-) *Peter* 8-) (NB: remove asterix to e-mail)

Well Im no where near the fastest around with a 1:06.63 but I did a 20 lap stint today the first was a 108 and all the rest were 107's except for the last 2 before the crash which were both in the 106's. Everytime I try to see how far I can go the same thing happens by about 10 laps I get very bored and it just turns into hotlapping untill I crash. Todd

McKafre wrote Wohya people... 1:06:63 is in the top10 fastest times in the world !!!! Check out http://gpl.gamestats.com/ in the FastLap contest section. and 1:10 with a keyboard is just incredible (<g> you fingers must REALLY hurt). Probably the best lap you can find, wow that's seriously impressive for a keyboard driver. - Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> Good race at the Brickyard! - Official Mentally retarded guy of r.a.s. - Excuse me for my English (I'm French speaking) - Sponsored by http://www.awpss.com/ on the NROS - "People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world."--

Sorry for the confusion it was not with the keyboard, I mistook the question. Although it is a wheel I made myself from an old joystick. Todd

I sent my replay into gamestats, but the fast lap page has not been updated for over a month. I would say by now the top 10 are within half a second of each other from 1:05.98 to around 1:06.50 Todd.
