Just happened to be passing through one of the hot laps pages tonight and
see that Herr Woeger has scored an unbelievable 1:03.86 at the Glen.
Congratulations!

That's it.  I'm a turd at the wheel.  Nothing more.  I'd be depressed, but I
gotta go do some more laps!

Ahh well, I dont look it that way. Not to criticize people of there good lap
times. But I can hold my own in competetive races online, and thats good
enough for me.

I look at this way...you know how hard and how many hours it took you to get
even remotely competetive and a decent driver with this game. If these
fellas are getting lap times like this, it should occur to you that a) they
spend every ounce of time they have on it b) makes it sound like they dont
have a life but to play GPL c) it sounds like its the only game they have so
they can spend that much time with it.

Thats my observations.  So I never feel bad when I see people get lap times
like that..I just know obviously how much time they have played to get to
that and I laugh at myself.

I agree with the points you raise, but I think there's another one equally
important.  Any sport has some people who naturally excell.  I think WW and
Gregor and the others are the Senna's and Schumackers of GPL.  Speaking only
for myself, I have a feeling if I spent an unlimited amount of time on GPL
I'd get better for sure, but I doubt I'd ever be as fast as those guys.  In
other words, I think it's more than them just spending a lot of time, I
think there's real tallent there.  Just my opinion.

[WW scores yet another 1.03 at Glen, we mortals are merely turds etc.]

Yeah, good for you.

Errrm, not turning green are you?

Just keep on laughing.
In Dutch it's called:
"Als een boer met kiespijn"
Keep playing_all_the games you have, you obviously don't have to spend
lotsa time to be competative.
Good for you indeed!

It's all about making Big Bend as fast as you can first off.  You lose a lot of
time through there if you don't nail it.
