With the help of a few people, I am finally able to run GPL Demo with 36fps with no problem. The graphics isn't the best I've seen, but the gameplay is really fun. I never knew I can drift so good until I look at the replay. Playing at 36fps allows me to have a lot quicker reaction on what the car does. No wonder I spin a lot less now than what i did. So far i only run 5 laps at the Glen with the perfect 36fps (it is 1:36 now, time to sleep hehe) With the addition of the new video card, I've decided to play with the Lotus. I dunno if it is because of the frame rate, but the Lotus seems to be a lot easier to catch, i can slide around and catch the car. On the other hand, the Eagle was very big. everytime i try to drift, i go into the grass. But on the bad side, the Lotus is definitely looser, especially under braking, car always get tail happy, I have to enter the turns with the car at full opposite lock a few times (sometimes i feel like i am michael schumacher) hehehe Running at 36fps is definitely more fun thanks for the help folks My best time at 13fps was a 1:06:9 with an Eagle my best time at 36fps is a 1:09:8 with a Lotus, but then I only run 5 laps on the track. So I should be able to beat the 1:06 easily. When the full game comes, I will just dump the Lotus and Eagle. I will only drive the Ferrari. Sucks to be a Tifosi heheh thanksagain all

2 possibly changes to try: If the car is stepping out at the back under braking then increase the brake balance which will move it more towards the front. To stop oversteer in corners you can either raise the nose or drop the rear (ride height). One other thing to try while I'm at. Increase the front ARB. I upped this a couple of clicks to just recently and immediately noticed an improvement in handling for the Lotus. -- Peter Ives - (AKA Ivington) No person's opinions can be said to be more correct than another's, because each is the sole judge of his or her own experience.

Cossie, What was your solution? I've been having the same "funky" graphics problems as you but have yet to find a soulution. Stewart 36fps with no problem. The graphics isn't the best I've until I look at the replay. Playing at 36fps allows me lot less now than what i did. So far i only run 5 <SNIP>
