Grand Prix 3 1.13 - How can I make it run faster

Hi, I have GP3 1.13 and I run it on a 1ghz laptop. It runs quite well but when there are for or five cars in the one frame it tends to slow down. Is there anything I can do to make the game run quicker in either Hardware or Software modes (eg: download trackside objects of lesser quality).

Also is there a Grand Prix 3 1.13 resolution editor which allows you to pick your own resolution? eg: 900*660

You could set your draw distances to closer, there is a point (use gpxpatch) where the cars switch from full details to 2d bitmaps, though its fairly unnoticeable, like the LODs in GP4. If you set them to convert to the 2d things earlier, the cpu and grasphics card will have an easier time of it.
