Hi folks, we're experiencing hardware problems over at GPLRank at the moment, Brian hopes to receive the spare parts and have the site back up this coming Sunday at the earliest. Meanwhile, thanks for your patience & all the best, Uwe

Just a short visit and I already found 3 members that have been "instabanned!". A new classification?

Absolutely awesome. This mod which recreates the mid 70's formula one season is an absolute masterpiece. If you are a fan of the era (Lauda, Fittapaldi, Hunt Jones etc etc not to mention the 6 wheel project 34 Tyrell) you just have to get it. The download is large at over 500 meg, but extremely...

Hi folks, the racing community over at "Simracers Revival" (http://simracers.gplrank.info) has created an update to rF Santa's excellent Brabham BT52 car, containing 60+ custom made liveries from bygone days of all areas of motorsport, an engine sounds update, a 3d model update and much more,...

I know, nobody wants to hear it... lol. Non members get $30 off subscription, now through, uh, looks like December 1, follow link. http://www.iracing.com/save-now/ I doubt it will help Andy stop his iRacing cold turkey treatment, but it might tempt me I guess. I'm peeved, I usually pre-renew...

I wonder.... How big percentage of you actually download a track if you're at the GPL Track Database and decide to click on the "Get track" button to go to the official download site? Not everyone I guess but if you do click on the button I guess most of you are pretty sure you want to try the...

I know it's not PC (as it were) but if anyone's interested, below is a recent post I made about the PS/2 TOCA Race Driver II game after someone asked if anyone had played it. It's a bit sim-like so I thought you might be interested... "anyone played etc etc..." I have. And still playing TOCA RD...

Those of us (outside of Germany) that have forked out the DM's for the German GTR should start pushing SimBin (or any other company involved in GTR) for a language upgrade to be made available when worldwide release is made. I think this would be a nice gesture to those of us helping them out by...

Nascar ratings down in 2006. I'm not really surprised. Brian France has pretty much alienated all the die hard NASCAR fans and taken what was once a great series and turned it into a money making greed-fest where dollars, kids, TV censors now rule the day. I really have zero interest in...

Hello all, I've been away from racing sims for a few years now. I used to spend quite a bit of seat time in GPL and NASCAR online racing. Has anything replaced GPL yet? Now after about 2 years of being away, I'm getting the itch to re-install my old GPL and NASCAR stuff on my new machine (Dell...

I'm not sure how long it will be before this one is gone.. http://www.neowin.net/news/usenet-communities-closing-down

Hello all, I have a special request that could provide an interesting report on this NG. Next week I will have to diner Jean-Philippe BELLOC who is current (2005) FIA GT World Champion. I'd like him to try GTR2 with my Act labs Force RS with special pedals but I'd like to have all the tracks and...

"Effective June 30, 2010, Cox Communications will discontinue Usenet service to our subscribers." They're pushing giganews, but I'm guessing google groups will be good enough. Any other suggestions?

Amazon only has it available from the UK (I live in the US). Even though I am a NASCAR fan it looks great! I tried a previous version or so and like it. I guess I have to support any sims these days as there hasn't been much ever since Papryus shut down. -pw

I see I've been missing out on some fun here! Drat! I always like a good argument (mostly 'cause I always win...) ;) Several esteemed members of this group seem to have a disagreement on the realism of our Grand National 1970 mod physics. Well, I'll be glad to enlighten everyone. The crux of...

Well, once I've said screen height to FFB acts like going up or down with Center of Gravity. Well, this isn't so. Now I have r.Seat, and with it I have really good FFB feel. I previously had like three other combinations, and r.Seat gives me the best FFB feel. r.Seat is really solid, and...

http://www.force-dynamics.com/video.shtml If so, I apologise. I've not been keeping track of sim racing stuff lately. -- There is no "I" in "team", but there is an "I" in "pie". -Shaun of the Dead

I acknowledge that the demo leaves much to be desired, but after reading some forum posts at http://www.onlineracin.com/forum/tt.asp?forumid=34 by Bob Stanley and Joe Lomas, and applying some of the tweaks that others have posted, I believe there is light at the end of the tunnel. I realize there...
