Yep, GPL has been around a long time. I can get around a track, but being consistent is hard.
I also used to play Indy 500, and yes, it's been out since the late 80's or early 90's.
I've also played GTR, a couple of the F1 200x series games, all of the "Test Drive" series, some of the Need For Speed, Live for Speed, and a bunch of arcade games. I have the hardest time with the F1 200x games. I get little to no feedback about what's going on with the car with them, and I get a bit bored. GPL is really fun, but not easy. I find consistency the most difficult part. Probably because I'm always trying to go faster. GTR is similar, but not quite as hard. For a computer "game" I prefer something that's got realistic types of reactions in response to unrealistic situations, ie NFS - Porsche Unleashed. Pure sims are great for training but not as "fun". I don't want to think or work that hard when playing.
