RE: [VROC-F2] Donington

Dave,

I feel stupid now. The '65F1 / '67F2 thing is a recommendation only. There
was no reason why you couldn't have raced with F2 today. <Bangs head to the
wall>

Anyway, I'm glad it works with the lite carset. Have no idea why it doesn't
with full. Maybe gfx card memory issue?

Marko
