Awesome! Will do this one ASAP :-)

I made it ... barely, but made it. I flipped my car around 4 times over the event and was really really cautious with the engine on the last two stages.

Maybe I will reorder the config for the next run as I think you really need to be able to do setups in Finland  (cause jumps) and in Germany, because both of them force you to drive deliberatly slow to not constantly hit the rev limiter in the highest gear with default setup.

My legendary was doomed from he start. Had a massive impact in the first stage in Monte Carlo, to my surprise without puncture. After three stages, the warning lights showed up, in the fourth I somehow lost my rear spoiler.

Standing at the start of SS5, I didn't feel very comfortable. A minute later, I crashed out and had two punctures. Retired, as I would have no chance to finish.

I was trying to nurse a 2010 car through the event, but failed. Had a high speed off in finland, and then two smaller offs in wales. In sweden, the driveshaft just gave up :-/

The next legendary is configured and starts on monday. Slightly changed order, to allow for setups where its most neccesary

I just found out about this league and thought I'd give it a go.  Man, that was brutal.  Just picked up too much damage and my gearbox took me out on SS13.   Oh well, next time...  :-)

Thanks for setting this up and letting me race.  This is that_guy, btw...  I don't get around to posting much on forums, and mostly on the Steam forums for DR.  So this is my first official post here on the CM forums, so Howdy all!

Welcome to the forums that_guy 

So the rally is over, next try starts tomorrow. 
I was finally able to add my name to the survivor list :)

Made it to stage 21 before my gearbox gave again.  I'm gonna go have a talk with my crew...  :-(

Having another go at the Legendary event, just rolled into service before stage 13 (Germany).  Took a peek at my repairs and I think I'll make it through.  Just have to keep the same pace and not push.  We'll see...

My previous attempts at the Legendary ended in crushing defeat (losing a gearbox or drivetrain on stage 24/24), but I was determined to make it to the end.  :-)

Congratulations! Happy to see another survivor on the leaderboard. :)
Looks like you had a good flow throughout as well, steadily pulling away from my me. Except for stages 13 and 24, though, where I imagine you hit a few rough spots..?

Stage 24 I went off track and had to reset (I went right, road went left), and the rest of the stage I just took it easy so I didn't make any other silly mistakes.  Stage 13...  no mistakes on that stage, I think I beat your time by just a bit.    Did some extra repairs on that last stop to hopefully get me to the end this time.  :-)
