[FollowUp-To: rec.autos.simulators]
I bet you've all thought to yourselves from time to time, "hey, what we
really need around the place is yet another really pointless and
mediocre GPL utility"... so I'm happy to oblige :-)
GPLStat is a simple viewer which allows the user to see simultaneously
their times as compared to Papy's for the original 11 tracks. The
program also displays time differences, percentages (ie Papy = 100%),
GPLRank, PercentageRank (weighted by track like the GPLRank
score itself, so the Ring has most influence), RelativeRank (treating
each track as 1/11 of the total) and a Consistency Rating (out of 100).
Admittedly, a lot of this analysis can be done by means of the
(fantastically wonderful) GPL Replay Analyser or at the (equally great)
GPLRank site, but GPLStat has advantages over both:
* GPLRA's PB viewer requires a replay file, and shows add-on tracks
that are irrelevant where GPLRank scores are concerned.
* The GPLRank site requires you to be online. (well, duh!)
* Neither has the same combination of stats as GPLStat, and one or two
(eg the Consistency Rating) can be found nowhere else (which may or may
not be a good thing...).
You can get GPLStat from the first link at the URL below:

The zipfile is ~220K, and should contain just two files: the .EXE
itself and a readme.txt, which is well worth a read as there are still
a few bugs to be aware of (though nothing fatal).
I'll be improving GPLStat before too long, but meanwhile: enjoy!

Oops - no it doesn't. Sorry!
