GPL and 'Fazination'

I am new to the newsgroup, so please excuse me if this has been covered................. After watching the RUF Porsche video 'fazination' at the 'ring' I had to find out more! I first heard about GPL while looking for 'ring' information. I have now bought the sim and am learning the track, read lots, downloaded fast laps. It was encouraging to read that instant success is not achievable. As an aside has anyone got a replay of a wild lap at the ring (or Watkins glen), like the RUF Porsche i.e. no crashes but lots of slides and power oversteer, not fast I know but shows real car control!!!! another query is the reference in the manual to Derek Bells 6.42.2 lap, was that on the '67' GPL circuit or the 12.9 miles it is now. Lastly where is the best place for FAQ's. I cannot lock the front wheels via the button(braking help off) oh and are there any other GPL drivers who are organising a visit the track next year??? Thanks Paul

Hi! Just for that question: You can't lock the wheels that way, because if the brakes are assigned to a button, the braking help is automatically enabled, no matter what your setting in the options screen is. Assign brakes to an analogue device and the wheels will lock... Regards Crash

You wouldn't happen to have any of that in mpg or similar form would you??? :) speedracer

For the fastest hotlaps go here: http://216.13.117.36/~schubi/fastlaps.htm It was on the old curcuit with the exception of the straights in front of and behind the pits. You turn right immediatley after the chicane before the pit straight to bypass that section.
