Solitude - GPL

Thanks a MILLION GPLEA dudes! What a track, what a TRACK! It looks beautiful and gloomy at the same time :-) Boy, did they have great racing tracks back then. F1: Next weekend HungarorizzzZZZzZzz... -Juha (oh, in case you've been in a barrel: http://www.gplea.org ) -- //[email hidden]

Hello, hehe, my second Lap in an Eagle was an 4:26 something ( with one Shift-R ). Huge Thank you to the GPLEA, this is an amazing Track :-))). My Favorits of the Original-Tracks are Spa, The Ring and Monaco and Solitude is the best of the Ring and Spa melted together... Guess, what after 10 Minutes of driving my new favorite is... :-) Again, thank you very much Greetings Michael Staab -- Staabi's Mountain Bike Classics www.mtb-classic.de Mitglied in der CAR, Verein f�r PC-Rennsimulationen http://www.car-ev.de/ " To race is to live, everything else is just waiting"

And I've gotta love a track where my personal best goes from 4:38 to 4:24 to 4:02 in my first three laps. Ought to be down to 1:30 in no time. ;-) Thanks, guys! Kurt Wonderful track, Martijn and associates!

Yes, thanks! I suck, but I really enjoy doing poorly on that track! ;-) G Patricks >On 7 Aug 2000 20:25:17 GMT, [email hidden] (Juha Kallioinen) wrote: >Thanks a MILLION GPLEA dudes! What a track, what a TRACK! >It looks beautiful and gloomy at the same time :-)

WOW! What a track, awesome. It really reminds of sport riding on the twisty mountain roads of British Columbia and Washington state, as does the sky. The sense of elevation change is fantastic, and I LOVE those snaking turns on the second half of the lap. To Martijn Keizer and the rest of the GPLEA crew a BIG THANK YOU. I'm down to 3:54. Don't forget to stop at Phil's Pizza for a snack. -- Don Scurlock Vancouver,B.C. GPLRank -5.09 Come see how you rank, at the GPLRank site http://gplrank.schuerkamp.de/

Where on the GPLEA site do you download this track? Thanks, James

As a guess I'd say it's where it says We are proud to annouce our new track: Solitude Get this jewel of our new member Martijn Keizer here! (where 'here' is hyperlinked') on the the front page :) But if that's too tricky, the link is http://home.online.no/~kareknut/track/gplea/solitude/solitude_release.zip Kev James Larson wrote: > > Where on the GPLEA site do you download this track? > > Thanks, James

>We are proud to annouce our new track: Solitude Great track! And the "Mortals and Aliens" is superb! I tried the Alien way and it was really strange... ;) Many, many thanks to Martijn Keizer! It is so nice to have a new virtuoso in GPL track making. Arto

What is this "Mortals and Aliens" business? Downloaded the track and had to go to work, have musical commitments for the next 2 nights, so no driving for me...8^(...but I'm curious... J. P. Hovercraft Arto Wikla wrote:

I like to think that I have artistic commitments. The track is my canvas and the car is my brush. My inspiration, unfortunately, is Jackson Pollack. Stephen

*LOL* J.P., aren't you the guy who hosts the Mellotron sample page? Or was that some other Hovercraft? I drive very musically actually. My best Spa laps are like performances of a John Cage piece. You know, "4 Minutes and 33 Seconds". +Cinquo

Do you simply throw the car in the general direction of the track trusting that the audience ( and fellow competitors) will, with some thought on their part, be able to figure out your ultimate destination? :) David

My inspiration, unfortunately, is JacksonPollack. I went to a modern art exhibition once but I decided it was just a load of Pollacks. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. There's more. You lucky people. etc.etc.etc. ad nauseam.
