Al, glad I could bring a bit of light into your lives. It doubles up as my armchair now.<br>

It wouldn't fit on my desk sadly. My total skill in Grand Prix Legends runs to making it round Monza in 1:32 with the Lotus. That took me 6 hours. Arcade racing it ain't. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=

I used to clamp mine to a thin piece of square ply and sit it on my lap. At one point I uded to race like that and the screen was 90 degrees to my right. That took a bit of getting used to! 1:32 around Monza isn't too bad and the Lotus isn't the easiest around there. The eagle is easier to get the power down.<br>

Are you all asleep now ith boredom?!<br>

Well. I'll take any compliments. However I'm not sure why I'm cool and quite why I have cheared you up. But If I have then great!<br>
<br>
From an engineering point of view, you could do alot worse than getting into GPL. Great way to save money at UNI.<br>

My mate Marcus who was one of the boys who needed hauling back to South Wales after the Santa Pod incident couldn't get over the amount of generosity coming from you just because I owned such a dodgey car! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=

It's more or less:<br>
<br>
Press up arrow<br>
Spin into wall<br>
<br>
It's fiendish even with an analogue joystick. But the best bit is that it runs in hi res with all the detail on on my rubbish PC.

I bought this adaptor that allows you to plug in a PS2 analogue controler to the PC. Cost me about £5 with postage from China!
