Right i installed it last night - is good ! Love the sounds and graphics - although it seems that the other cars lag/jerk a lot... anyone else experience this ?
Sounds like you need to turn the gfx resolution or options down. click CTRL F in game and you'll see a FPS reading at the top right, anything less than 30 is bad for smooth driving.

Lol i saw that auction as well - got yourself a bargain there mate !
I'll be online later if anyone wants to help me learn GTR !!?
I will be, probably about 8ish, I'll create a game under our usual heading 'pistonheads' with the password - PHLeague (case sensitive)
get the Maserati mod 1st as these are what we are running in the current championship and are by far the most fun (driftable)
c u l8r maybe

Basically it locks the maximum frame rate to the refresh rate of your monitor.
It prevents 'tearing', where the frame changes halfway through the monitor's refresh and you can see the discontinuity where the monitor has drawn half of one frame and half of another.
Leave it on, it won't affect your framerate at all if its less than the refresh of the monitor anyway and prevents tearing if its greater

Just downloading some tracks and cars - where is a good place to get tracks ? It looks like there are loads of different versions of the same track out there - i want to make sure i have the same version as you guys.
Also - i downloaded a couple of capri and escort .rar files - i gather these must also be the same on everyones pc so you can see them ??

Not quite - the mods must be on the server - if a player doesn't have the mod he may not be able to join the server at all - otherwise if you can join but don't have the mode that the server/other players have, all you will see is a pace car tooling round instead of whatever the car should be.
For the escorts, capris and maseratis, everyone needs the mod or you can't play.
OK so where do you download the Maserati for example.
I got my copy second hand, will this affect the online gameplaying as the previous owner must have registered and I seem to get login/password fail messages when I try.
I have emailed the technical support people, hope to get a reply soon if at all.
