I think the Ghostcar would be a great learning tool for noobs like myself. As far as I know the Ghostcar only displays my fastest lap so far in a session. Is there any method that I could display WR hotlap replay of another driver in a session using the Ghostcar?

How do I get the ghost car to work?

There's an .spr to ghost conversion tool. So, yes, you should be able to ghost race with a WR replay. Search the Unofficial Addons section and you should be able to find the conversion tool.

You'll find what you need here

This will convert .raf files to .ghost, so you will have to run the .spr (replay) and dump the lap data in game to generate the .raf

I've used this a lot... it adds a great dimension to offline racing.

maybe a bit an idiot question but how can I make the ghostcar show up? I didn't find it in the options.

It's an unofficial addon:
