Can anyone explain which version to use with gpl for best laptimes? Version 1.1 and 1.2 enable a minimum ride height of 2.5cm instead of 1cm(v1.000). I think the fastest laptimes are driven with v1.000 because the car can be tuned closer to the ground. What version do the ultimate fast guys like Greger Huttu use?

Version 1.1 with it's low setups is unrealistic. It may be fine if you want the car sitting on the bump-stops, but the car can be quite evil-handling like this. Wolfgang Woeger reportedly said the car can be just as fast using a more realistic ride height (2.5 to 4in) and will invariably be easier to drive as well. Better to go with v1.2, so at least you'll be compatible with everyone for multiplayer.

Well well, are you taking up hotlapping again? It's been a long time... Use v1.2. It seems to be slightly faster than 1.0 and hotlap boards only accept 1.2 anyway. Avoid 1.1 as it has a timing bug.
