I'd rate the Alfa mod as possibly the best F12001/2 addons yet. Fantastic models, textures, physics. Despite my better judgement - I thought i'd try it online - on a server called "Alfa Mod Only" or words to that effect. Anyhow - there I was enjoying a pole position at the n'ring of 2:14 or thereabouts and I decide to watch the other cars. Imagine my suprise - when flicking thru the 130mph Alfa's - when one of them's doing 90 in first - and in excess of 180 coming upto the chicane. Despite numerous "You're NOT USING THE ALFA MOD" screams at the chat thingie - no luck. The net code is about as usefull as a waterproof teabag in a chocloate teapot - so it's hardly an issue really ( and the AI is fantastic with the Alfa mod - even if they do get stuck sometimes ) - but it would appear that you can make the worlds best mod for F12002 - and just show up in a Ferrari F1 car - that will appear to be one of the mod teams. Oh ISI - you really do have a long way to go - pity they're giving up with '03. Doug

The AI are great,very very fast and compared to many games actually ' I ' Dont know how my times compare to yours but would you like a race...?

Hope to be able to download a setup from someone soon so we can see the 1.4x.xx's...LOL Great mod...love it. AD
