I never used my real name either. Best of luck with this.
I like the way Snrub thinks!

Thanks :) Also, do you know how to install mods into GP4. IS there GP4 mods for 2002-13?

Look for ZaZ tools, you'll get CSM and TSM, which is what you need for mods. It's been a while since I had GP4, so I may not be the best person to ask.

RET. Jenson Button (Benetton) Steering/Lap 50
RET. Giancarlo Fisichella (Benetton) Collision/Lap 32
RET. Tomas Enge (Prost) Collision/Lap 32
RET. Pedro De La Rosa (Jaguar) Gearbox/Lap 19
RET. Heinz-Harald Frentzen (Prost) Collision/Lap 5
RET. Eddie Irvine (Jaguar) Collision/Lap 1
RET. Michael Schumacher (Ferrari) Collision/Lap 1

Point Standings:
1. David Coulthard (10)
2. Rubens Barrichello (6)
3. Mika Hakkinen (4)
4. Juan Pablo Montoya (3)
5. Ralf Schumacher (2)
6. Giovanni Fontana (1)

I got the perfect setup, and a great strategy, as well. It looks like my lap 11 pit-stop paid off, so I could drive without pitting until lap 49, when my tires started to be worn out. I was excepting a top-10 finish for today, but a point... this is amazing. Also, the pit crew was great in the whole weekend, and my pit-stops lasted as long as the top teams'. Also, Jos had a great 8th-place finish.

Whilst doing the qualifying for Malaysia, GP4 crashed. Bathplug. Now, I´ll have to wait until May, when I am planning to visit my cousin, who has the disk right now. Yes, I have the no CD patch, but I can´t reinstall the game without the disk. Sorry :cry:

You can always download the CD image and use Daemon Tools or Gizmo to mount it into a virtual drive and reinstall it.
