Contactez moi. Je serais ravi de poster ces travaux ou (meme mieux) placer un lien ici.
(thanks Olivier for the translation!)


(more translations are very welcome)


some of the texts mention Grandprix2 only. but as the track basics of Grandprix3 are pretty similar, those texts are still valid in general.


track command library

v3d, may 22. 2001

reinserted location code type F for GP3 plus minor changes.

if you already have the version 3c you just need to download and replace the new htm-file (40k) as the pictures didnt change.
if you dont have the 3c version, you also need the images(630k) if you want some images between the texts. the pictures need to be in the same directory as the htm-file then.

and as usual, we also have a pdf-version (1.5M) again
