Hi,

I recompiled 2.10pre2 with

*/ #define ROUTEREACH (0.02+10*current.groundspeed/(3600*milesconv)) */
#define ROUTEREACH (0.04+10*current.groundspeed/(3600*milesconv))

in src/gpsdrive.h

and it seems to be the factor 0.04 which is great on highways, factor 
0.03 seems to be the correct in cities. I could only test it on a short 
route.

I will try it with different routes and then I will report my experiences.

Many thanks again, it is great to have your help,

Thomas Schönhütl
