Setups for Grand Prix Legends (GPL)


GPL setup files are stored in track directories in the GPL directory "Players\Player Name\Setups". Since you can create multiple different players, each player has its own set of setup files.

I strongly recommend that you create individual player names for each mod to keep your setup files separate. Each chassis setup file has a three-letter extension that identifies the chassis. Please scroll further down for a list of GPL setup extensions.

Differential Setup Tutorial Video by ErikGPL


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awLhSsy5IqY

This is a very basic tutorial to show the effects of adjusting the differential settings in Grand Prix Legends. It can be useful for people who are new to this game, or picking it up again after a long break. This video provides a basic and stable setup to start with.

GPL Setup Manager


GPL Setup Manager is a stand-alone program for changing the setup values without having to start GPL.  You can easily load and modify any of your existing GPL setup files or create new ones.

It will work for most major GPL mods - 1965, 1966, 1967, 1969, 1969, 1969, 1969 Extra, 1967 Sportscar, 1967 F2, 1971 CanAm, 1966 CanAm, 1955 and 1967 Sportscar Extra.  It will not work for the 1967 Extra Mod as it uses multiple car sets and is too difficult to program.

In addition, the GPL Setup Manager includes updated engine specification tables for each engine currently used by Mods.

Download GPL Setup Manager:

The gpl.exe accesses a unique setup file for each chassis on each track.  These setup files are stored in track directories in the GPL directory "Players\Player Name\Setups".  Since you can create multiple different players, each player has its own set of setup files.

I strongly recommend that you create individual player names for each mod to keep your setup files separate.

Each chassis setup file has a three-letter extension that identifies the chassis. These are:
