GPL was that, and I must have lost lots of weeks to that game since. At the time I felt GP3 and GP4 were just too easy, even without all the driving aids and strengthening the opposition, and I craved something more. That said, it was the savagery and legend of it that attracted me to it in 2001. If they'd spend a bit more time on the polish of the game, then initial users would have been much more inclined to stick with it rather than just thinking 'WTF is this. If you use a more realistic setup from the era (so raise the ride-height from the minimum 2.5 inches to around 4.5 inches) and soften the suspension accordingly, you end up with a car you can really chuck about and have fun with, without it savagely snapping out of control (though the Lotus will still have that rather strange, sensitive yet vague feeling). Papyrus just really messed up with the default setups and the extremes they allowed them to go to. These are my initial thoughts, I'd welcome other replies with experiences as well. Since then, of course, I see it as the greatest track ever built - and being a race track history enthusiast, I DO know a lot of tracks. I still think I have 2-4 seconds in it somewhere.The Nurburgring in GPL is the single biggest challenge one could get in a simulator. I never made a mistake-free lap on that track, though I came close. Then the downforce: in rFactor you have tons of downforce on the Ring, which might be more fun, but in GPL it is 1000-times harder with no aerodynamic downforce. I often played back a lap in my mind in my spare time to memorize it. It took me about A WEEK to learn the track properly. I spent minutes just by looking at the track map without much progress, so I got into the car and drove the circuit. So that was my first time, and it just blew me away. but I guess it was incomparable with rFactor as well for others though. I never drove it before, I don't play rFactor and stuff. I also adore F1 history, particularly old tracks, so the year and the era is a bonus. I practically never finished higher than 11-12nd in a race, but every time I want the hardest challenge in simulators, I drive that game. Its car model is the single hardest to drive.
