DiRTy Gossip about DIRT Rally Games

[dgeesi0 305]

well i think some are back to work tomorrow so maybe some sold gossip then.

only thing at moment im not liking is the amount of cheats. hopefully the times are wiped for those and those players removed. many tracks are pointless even attempting top 5s now as the cheats have many of those . which is sad.

What about 5 gears in the '07 Focus, ya wind-up merchant!!  lol

[VirtuaIceMan 92]

Just saw a Group B video on Facebook, saying it's 30 years since that in 2016. Could it be Legend worthy?

[YoMrWhite 11]

We already have most of the Group B cars. And I don't think anybody is waiting too eagerly for the Citroen BX 4x4.

I'd rock it.

[RookieOne 61]

Fuck the Citroën bx, I want a Toyota /Kappa

[Darhour 3]

That Citroen BX is surely missing in thr game. I drove it in WRC 3, it oversteered a lot mainly because of its RWD designed specifically to the game (lol) but sadly it sounded like popcorn. What a botch and a waste of car to such studio.

It's pretty obvious the Legend edition is going to contain the infamous Audi Quattro S1 E2. :naughty:

Never underestimate the creativity of Belgians. :lol: If there is a way, we will find it.

Can hardly forget a certain Fin though.

“I almost burned my legs and hands while doing it. I throttled the engine by hand. Smoke was coming from my gloves so I had to change hands frequently. But I didn´t give up, no matter how much it hurt.”

Who says bonnet cam is unrealistic?
In one of @KickUp s absolute fav cars too. Get yourself an Action Man and a little wireless camera for POV and he can live this with his RC Delta.

(Haven't been drunk over New Year or anything fun. After getting the hell out of here for a while, decided that after a good lunch, the 1st was a good day to format my PC and swap out the 4TB HDD for a 4TB SSHD and replace the useless 16GB Cache SSD with a 1TB SSD then give it all a complete reformat. Only just about getting back up to speed now thanks to some complications, but my is a freshly formatted PC and Windows install nice once you've gotten everything updated and things reinstalled).
Sidenote: EVGA, why on earth would you put those little clear sticker things on the fans of your GPU? No benefit and so easy to miss. They've been in my PC for nearly two years before the compressed air blew them off.

Happy New year gossipers!

New Years Resolution: let's talk more Gossip, stop trying to correct each other, it's really not that important beyond having a little fun with each other.  

I think this thread has lost it purpose a little. 

Missing Lee feeding us hints and keeping us guessing.  

I'll try, but I can't promise that if someone mentions a 22B I won't crack @gfRally...

The BX is like the Peugeot 307 WRC of the Group B era: it would certainly add to the numbers, but it's hard to get excited about it!

Well said.

On the other hand, there are a few forgotten - meaning not so successful - cars I would really like to get my hands on. For example the Nissan Sunny, Mitsubishi Galant or Mazda 323 in Group A, Hyundai Accent in WRC and so on.

Oh and of course, we can't forget about this one:

I spent nearly 20 hours straight in a bar. Granted I was refinishing the bar top given we only had the one night to do it. I then got in trouble the next day at work because I decided that 15 minutes of sleep I got wasn't enough so I slept through a meeting.

Yes, yes, yes. First one on my list, too, in front of all the others I mentioned. Must have.

I actually love this car, it's always fun to see.  

Standing in the woods and hearing it from a far, kind of catches you off guard since its soo! Loud!  it's a good laugh once it put-puts by slowly :) not sure if I would put it in, maybe for training or very first car to afford.

It wasn't so slow in fact. Won the Sweden rally regularly in the 60s and 70s, and a few times in Finland and Great Britain. In the Sweden Rally 1975, Blomqvist would have beaten Waldegaard in the Stratos, if not for some electrical problems.

I guess I didn't know that.  Maybe for the time it was fast or the one here in the US is slow.  Maybe after watching all the others it's seems slow.  I'm sure it's fun to drive in RL

Competition wise it wasn't slow, but the sound do promise more than it delivers ;)

It has a lot of common with politicians then xD

Had a Saab 96 V4 for four years in the '70's and it seemed like I was constantly shifting, but I loved that car.

More Saabs!  The one single 96 V4 in Rally Trophy has never been enough.

[cjl9 12]

Rally Trophy! One of my favorite games with RBR

SAAB, Mk1Cortina, Volvo 124, Escort BDA, Stratos.  Great stages too.

[YoMrWhite 11]

Oh yeah, Rally Trophy. Great memories, especially driving the Saab and Lancia Fulvia (actually one of the faster cars there). Still using keyboards at the time, so the A110 and Stratos were quite a handful.

[JZStudios 629]

On a really weird side note, I had a dream that the CM guys made a video showing off some new stage. Guess I really want more tracks.
