Snoopy43 100 Posted April 17, 2020 I don’t like New England and I have no clue how to drive it fast. Maybe I will start today but I don’t want to do this rally 😂🙈 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evilsmurf 90 Posted April 17, 2020 2 rolls, half a dozen spins and a puncture. Overall, not a bad rally for me 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janneman60 157 Posted April 17, 2020 This tournament seems to have a bad omen for me. AGAIN a puncture. Well I have to admit this time it was a real driver error. A pitty, the rest of the rally went very well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it really that much faster without spares? For me it is way too risky and I see no point of going without at least one spare besides last stage which is short.

Frankiestail 11 Posted April 17, 2020 Had a crack at this rally, slow and steady hanging in 8th, had a lapse of talent (of which is sadly lacking anyhow) clipped a rock, got puncture but of course it wouldn’t let me change, no prompt on screen, this at start of 4th stage, retired! Damn this game sometimes, but see you’s next time out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snoopy43 100 Posted April 17, 2020 Finished USA. It went okay, bit cautious in some places as I didn’t remember the stages so well. Small drama on last stage where I almost rolled and had to reverse 😁 So it was little bit nervous after that. So far so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UnderclassGDfan 489 Posted April 18, 2020 USA went ok I guess... Well, I'm pretty disappointed to be honest. Pace was good, but I did sooooooo many mistakes! On SS6 I crashed on the last corner (a "early 2 right" I believe) and spun, got even a puncture, lost 5-6 seconds there. And after that I pushed hard on SS7 to get 2nd place back, but chrashed on the small jump right before the finish... I smashed against a sign, to the other side against a tree and came to a full stop. Had 1 or 2 punctures and lost well over 10 seconds there. I was a second or two behind Yabby in 3rd sector before that crash, so I believe I wouldn't have made it without the crash anyway. Pretty sure I could have been much better, but wasn't my day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ApexAzimuth 58 Posted April 18, 2020 I don't know what's wrong with me, but I'm done. I crashed on the second turn. That's probably the last race for me this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janneman60 157 Posted April 18, 2020 Made a very low and hard setup. Shakedown was bad had 2 roll overs. Decided to use the setup but be aware not to cut and launch the car. Rally was without big mistakes or crashes. And without a puncture 😀 Nice one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dytut 91 Posted April 19, 2020 Way off pace in Germany, really struggling with H-shift/clutch on tarmac. Didn't help that I had one puncture on SS2 on a place where I've never even thought there was something to hit 😛 Also, I got quite a few hairy moments when the default setup on the Legacy bit me hard. The sway bars are pretty hard, and touching the inside of a corner tends to put the car on two wheels. Ended up on my roof once, managed to keep on the road the other times but smashed my engine on SS4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evilsmurf 90 Posted April 20, 2020 I'll try giving Germany a go later, but have damaged some muscle and tendons in my arm so not sure how well I will get on with steering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baunau 2 Posted April 20, 2020 That was an exciting rally. Managed to keep up with @SkyRex and @Janneman60 all the way through to stage 6 and we were swapping positions every stage. I even had a proper jump-scare on stage 6 where a deer decided to jump out of the bushes right before a fast R4/L5 combo. Was too eager on stage 7 and ended up with a left-rear puncture halfway through the stage. Pushed on to the finish, but spun three times on my way there. Slightly disappointed.

UnderclassGDfan 489 Posted April 21, 2020 I crashed in SS2, but somehow didn't got a puncture. It was really a typical crash were I usually get a puncture, but thought I am lucky. Only lost a few seconds. But then I "crashed" early on SS3: came way too fast into a 4 right and then onto the gras and slided way off the track. Got 40 seconds time penalty. After this I just finished the rally without motivation and several mistakes including a spin in SS4. In SS6 I somehow got huge problems with the tyres, slided often more than expected causing some mistakes. SS7 was ok, came onto the gras once and lost 2-3 seconds. I somehow can't get a good rally in that location, always fail at some point. Meh. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dytut 91 Posted April 22, 2020 Finally, my first event that wasn't catastrophic with H-shifter! Was too slow on the pedals in one place and went off and had to reset, but otherwise it felt decent. Still won't be fast, but it's going to be interesting for me to compare with the times of you fast guys 🙂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baunau 2 Posted April 22, 2020 Quite happy with this rally, managed to keep it smooth. Remains to see if that translates to fast, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freddygore 44 Posted April 23, 2020 Since a long time i didn t make no mistakes in wales, i m really proud of this run, and first time i finish front of my compatriot yabbi lol ! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janneman60 157 Posted April 23, 2020 It was for 99% a good rally. The 1% gave me a reset and about 40 seconds time loss... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UnderclassGDfan 489 Posted April 24, 2020 Was leading until late in SS5, were I crashed and got a rear left puncture. All @baunau's fault, because he forced me to push hard wich resulted in a crash against a tree coming into the wooden area in late sector 6 I believe. Was leading by 2-3 seconds by then, but I lost quite much time in the first run on that stage in that area, so I wanted to push a bit more. Everytime I try to push more, I crash. Maybe I should focus on finishing with 90% of pace to avoid crashes from now on. The next 2 rallies will be very important for me, because I doubt I can do anything in sweden... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danielofifi 451 Posted April 24, 2020 Great rally, tough and demanding, was having great time chasing the middle pack until the game crashed. And those horrible, horrible servers... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
