Hi there, I just wondered whether there is any way to make the game more difficult, as I find it too easy even at ace level, providing I drive consistantly i.e without crashing. For example on the first track, round the streets of America, I was just about to lap my team mate for the second time just before the race ended. There must be a way to make it more of a challenge.

Well, I note see you're playing it on an Amiga ('ray!), in which case, using an analogue joystick is a good way to completely dispel any nonchalance which you may have exhibited when using the keyboard or a digital joystick. It's a completely different kettle of scaley things altogether; I used to be able to stuff everybody on Ace level too, but since I got my AJ I can barely win in semi-pro mode any more ... :-\ Of course, you may already be using an analogue joystick, in which case you are obviously God.

First of all well done, you must be half-decent. Secondly, are you running 100% length races? Thirdly I and others have noticed that the human drivers have a big edge on the tight courses, Phoenix, Monaco, Hungary, and Adelaide. The computer cars have a big edge on the more open courses like Hockenhiem, Imola, Silverstone, SPA, etc... Intermediate courses like Montreal and Brazil are pretty even for humans and computer AI... Also, computer speed seems to affect play balance.... Why not run a full season campaign at full reality and ACE level, then let us know how you fare? Steve Smith

My advice would be: Try IndyCar Racing. I gave up my copy of F1GP for the same reason. -- :::> Tony Johns <:::
