Hello to my fellow GP3 racers.. What I want to do is run a full (fantasy) championship season with all full laps for a grand prix race. Problem is, when I run a race for Interlagos for example, it only shows 55 laps for 100% race distance instead of 72. I used Pit and Lap Editor to change the pit windows a bit and that is set for 72 laps, and that has been imported to the GP3 exe file, I'm not sure what sets the actual race distance. I copied the original F1ct02.dat file from the CD and it still showed up in the game as 55 laps. If I change the race distance to 50%, it drops to 27 laps, so its being parsed into the game from somewhere, and I'd rather not have to reinstall the whole game again to fix this problem. Any suggestions? Can GPxPatch set the race distance (for laps) in the .ini file?? thanks in advance.https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182704#msg-1182704Mon, 10 Aug 2026 00:53:41 +0200 Phorum 5.3-dev https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182726#msg-1182726 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182726#msg-1182726
See this post => Is it possible to increase the number of laps to more than 100 or 200 ?

Perhaps there is some information that can help.]]> evroic Grand Prix 3Wed, 05 Aug 2026 02:56:56 +0200 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182718#msg-1182718 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182718#msg-1182718instead is setted in the game menu -> race options -> race distance.
If you are loading a saved game , it loads the race options on that save, so if change to 100% then load a race saved , it should have the same as saved distance % .]]> pippozzo Grand Prix 3Tue, 04 Aug 2026 20:53:05 +0200 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182704#msg-1182704 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?1,1182704,1182704#msg-1182704
