Yes there is.. Go to your local software store abd buy the tool called "Need for Speed". This will give you what you want. Sorry, I just had too :) Editing this stuff for GPL would be nice for about three or four laps. Maybe as many as 30 laps before GPL gets put on the shelf. but that's just my opinion though.

You mean the standard issue 350-430 BHP (or whatever it is the Repco motor in the Brabham and the BRM H-16 make respectively) going through those dinky little narrow, hard compound, treaded tyres isn't enough to test your skills? We're not worthy... -- JG Who has, just occasionally, wondered what a pre-war Mercedes/Auto-Union, or the 1.5 litre, supercharged BRM V16 would be like to drive in a GPL style physics model...

excactly: there is a utility like that for GP2. You can tune your car to a 200kg 14000hp monster car with loads of grip or a 60hp 4000kg tank. It's fun for half a lap but it ruins the challenge of the game after that.
