im in - but two questions - where do i download said tracks from? and also - had all the fun of reinstalling it on my machine last night - and it runs - but with a catch. the graphics have wierd glitches and i can see horizontal and vertical lines like im driving in one of star treks holodecks. has anyone come across this and successfully cured it? i can play but only with graphics at 'software' rather than 'open gl' and the overall effect is much poorer.

Can someone who knows about these things explain how you get all these wonderful British tracks and use "GPL" to race on them.

I have been searching for a racing sim with all the British tracks and so far have drawn a blank....

What do I buy. Where do I download the tracks?

Oh great! I've gone and done it again - made an arse of myself

Just engaged the brain - GPL = Grand Prix Legends, the game.
Never read the post correctly and had visions of PH community meeting up at real race tracks in real cars (Why would our young 214 fan be suggesting that)

right, this week I'll be mostly trying to figure out how to install the track (and, em, download them) and how on earth to make the sodding client to work!

You'll have to post some guides pwig on how to connect to the actual game. never played online before.
