That experience has since been eclipsed by good online racing, but in its day, it was addictive and it was no problem at all to find the motivation to run a full-length offline race just to submit the final result to an offline league. The first time you went up and over after touching the wheel of a competitor, you knew GP2 had something in its bag of tricks which ICR2 didn't. Too bad Crammond just missed 3D acceleration with that release, but the lighting effects he produced in software mode were sweet.
