I've recently started using GPL again after a bit of a lay-off (god I'm slow!!!). I've been downloading loads of tracks, patches, utilities which have transformed the sim. It never ceases to amaze me what people come up with - the tracks in particular. It must take hours and hours, and all for the good of others. It's an terrific community that has built up around what is still,IMHO, the best sim (wouldn't it be great if Papyrus could ever get around to a version 2). So a big thanks to you all - if I ever get the chance I'll buy you a pint! Now how on earth am I going to master that Isle of Mann TT track..... Regards Alan

I fully agree.....the enthusiasm for this game is providing a plethora of entertainment for racers and simmers alike. GPL is by far the best sim out there...not only because of Papyrus, but because of the modders and developers dedicating all thier hard work and efforts into making GPL (GPL2 actually) come as far as it has. An infinite thanks to all! :-) A job well done! "Alan Pengelly" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I'd like to know. I don't think I've had a shift-R free lap in about 50 attempts! Great fun trying though:) - Michael
