@Lestat, Geoff Crammond , now there's a name ,stunt car racer on the amiga loved that game and i became so good at it i could deliberately crash the buggy of the course wait to be craned back on and still win on any level,  It was a sad day when lost toys closed and the new stunt car racer game was cancelled,then we come to grand prix i loved GP4 although some swear by  GP2 once met a really weird guy real smart but strange and he kept an old pc that he played with and  GP2 was  the only thing on it and he also had a modern pc that he never used for gaming , i believe Sir Geoff has the mags used to call him, background (he's got a physics degree) was his secret to making great racing games

Well, to me, GP2 is still my favourite F1 simulator I participated on online championships until 2005, but they're still raging on. I tried both GP3 and GP4, but neither got me hooked as GP2 did, although GP4 approached similar simulation levels as GP2. 

Main driving point between both was the huge amount of mods that GP2 allowed, while it's still very limited for GP4. I recreated all the F1 Seasons through 1966 - 1994 due exclusively to mods. 

Also, I want to thank Robo for allowing us to use his thread to speak also about all things gaming related, even though it's a bit off-topic
