Good spot Bill, glad to see someone carried on past the dreaded Monaco word I'll admit to being a little selfish here. I've never raced here in GTL and its one of my faves. Should suit the ickle monsters I hope. get in the mood

Same here. I just hope I've got a working internet connection by then.

I've only ever raced at Monaco back in about '92, playing Micro-prose Gran Prix on my Atari ST. Those were the days I'll admit to being a little selfish here. I've never raced here in GTL and its one of my faves. Should suit the ickle monsters I hope.
If that's a selfish selection... then you need to be more selfish in future, nice one Ian

I remember this track with infamy, I've squeezed a 1.57.9 in the Elite, a nice nimble little car.

Its running Mid-Ohio (perhaps you haven't installed it yet) but I've now added Monaco to cycle.

Couldn't have had more fun spinning a few laps with SBG & Matt last night. Absolutely top notch fun! & what about the scenery?! Awesome! Here's a vid I found to give an idea of what to expect http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zakyMz-DmIQ

Indeed Legzy, was a hoot. so far: 2:00.4 in Elite 2:00.6 in Fiat 2:00.8 in Jag
Pretty close. Jag time is about as quick as I can get it, the others will go a bit quicker with more praccy.

More practice/fun last night here with Lazlow/Blunder/Matt. It's just an inspired combo choice. Look out if you get stuck behind Blunder's Jag's fat rear end

Driving the Jag round here compared to the Elite is like driving an open topped double decker bus, I'm a couple of seconds slower in it but find it more satisfying when it all goes right. Will leave car choice to the last minute...

Legzy, Blunder, Lazlow.
I am trying to figure why the conn was so bad last night at Spa for me, I saw a little warping occasionally, mostly it was fine. Yet I was apparently warping quite badly at times. The conn I was on was only lightly used later when we were mucking around at Monaco. Was I warping at Monaco? Ta Matt.
