This is a matter of what your intentions are. If you plan to use a racing "game"
casually then GPL, in a GP1 car with no aids will not make you happy. If you want a "sim"
you can get your teeth into and not be kidding yourself about how good a sim racer you are
by beating the AI in NFS or something, then GPL is easily choice #1!
