There's a limit of 128 laps in training for keeping lap times. When you go over 128, GPL silently discards laps above 128, and you keep getting whatever time you had on lap 128. I found this out by working on Monza, pausing, talking on the phone, running some more, pausing, playing with the dog, playing some more. It should AT LEAST say it can't keep any more laps. It could wrap or something.

After two weeks, this is one of the most severe bugs reported? Hmm...maybe Papy should code NT5. Or maybe not, maybe it would only support rendition...<g> Ben

I will pay the psychiatric treatment to whoever post they did that... 128laps x ~10min per lap... that's 21hours and 20mins of racing non-stop..
