Try this Mirrors to cars and track only, no textures in mirrors turn off specular and dymanic lighting turn off skid marks detail slider to 50% sounds to 3-5 With 10 ai cars you should get good frame rates. JM

The display options in gpl make very little difference in most people's systems because people tend to have a video card/ cpu combo that is balanced for what most games require. GPL is irregularly cpu heavy so people tend to be more limited by cpu than graphics. rob.

In the file gpl.ini change the value of "sound quality" from whatever it is to "0" -- Mea***er ICQ 25198907

Er, that's "app.ini" in my version. No biggie, but the fellow might miss it, and it's a good tip.
