Hi guys, I never had the chance to try GPL and I wanted to change that today.
I'm a bit lost with the different install options proposed by the GPLWorld website though.
Should I get the 2004/2020 demo and install mods over it or is it better to get the CD version and go from scratch? Thanks!
You install the 2004/2020 Demo and installs Mods over that . ( The only option if you own a new PC )Hi guys, I never had the chance to try GPL and I wanted to change that today.

I'm biased because I'm one of the authors of the 1965 mod for rF1, so I'm going to say that our '65 is the "best" out of them all, because we tried to offer a mod that would be as complete as possible, both in terms of cars and tracks as well.Hello,
I would like to know his opinion on this (because I don't know anything about it):
What is the mod / game / that best simulates the 1965-66-67-68- and 69 f1?
are:
-Grand Prix Legends (of course 1967)
- F1 Challenge 99-02 (mods 1964 to 69 by SamAlex)
-Rfactor (mods of all colors and flavors)
especially mods:
-f1 1965 by CROMS
-f1 1967 Classic by Slimjim
-f1 Racing Legends (1967 style) by BorekS
-GTR2 also has something.
-no more modern games, because they are more "realistic" but they don't have a whole season. (besides that my pc would explode)
to take into account that I do not know anything about "realism" much less about those years .... (60's)
I read somewhere that it looks like slipping on ice. (Is that true? Or did some game just "educate" us like that?)
I tried all the mentioned ones ... and the ones that look more like ice, are the F1C mods (apparently they are taken from gpl)
..but I don't know anything.
What do you think?

Well that's a beautiful manual to start with...I'm biased because I'm one of the authors of the 1965 mod for rF1, so I'm going to say that our '65 is the "best" out of them all, because we tried to offer a mod that would be as complete as possible, both in terms of cars and tracks as well.
But it all comes down to personal preference. Some believe that hard to drive equals to realistic (especially for F1s and sportscars from the '60s and early '70s), others (like us) believe that these cars should be harsh but fair.
These cars were not glued on the road like contemporary F1s running on slicks, but they weren't trying to murder you at every corner either. Most casualties and fatalities during those years were often down to partially unrelated issues like poor safety standards rather than the cars being impossible to drive as they're often portraied in most other mods.
The "driving on ice" feeling is unfortunately a common issue of gMotor and gMotor2 based games, so yes it does feel like you're just sliding along in F1C and rF1, but that was also a recurring thing in the original GPL. We tried to keep a good balance, but it's up to the player to decide which mod and/or game they like the most for '60s F1s.
