So PC version will not have this super ultra mega hyper engineer with some special perk? :(

What is the perk, anyway? "Bypass restrictor plate"?

Nah, Toyota wouldn't let them license that, either.

Well, it's as Spanish as Lamborghini is Italian (aka both owned by the most rule abiding company of them all).

I thought that allink racing drove those audi a3's or is this a new team?

Bear here, just poking at the embers of the gossip. 

Have there been any brief mentions of cars like the Talbot Samba making it into DR in the future? Oldies with character! 
I also pray for Mk1 Escort gossip.

It's not a new team @Underkex, as @KingOfCoins said...

...that team were running Audi S3's last year:



Interesting move to Seat, I wonder if there is some manufacturer support? Car looks good in that render as well, be great to see another different marque on the grid!

It's true but they have been preparing the Foust's Beetle in Seat Sport at Barcelona. I suppose they will use that to make the Seat version.

Not super-ultra-mega-hyper awesome. More of a decent value stepping stone to the mid level Engineers. They do come..."fully loaded"...with perks for their respective classes though.

Members of DiRT Rally at Australia... Maybe they are measuring some stages  :p

That was kind of sarcasm but nice to hear a thorough explanation :)

Does anyone recognize any of these guys?  Do we have confirmation that they are on the art team?  If so, this is pretty good gossip.

[RallyDriven 398]

Looks like it could just be some promotional event, but they could very easily be collecting reference data whilst they are out there. Whether that is for Dirt Rally or for a future game is another thing entirely.

[gfRally 448]

I'm pretty convinced that what we will have after April, is the final chapter of DR.  Anything new will be for a future title.  


It it does make a difference in what we could see in the next title if these where members of the DiRT art team, making a visit with some promotion stopd along the way.  

A good question is, why would they take DiRT Rally to a Australian rally school for a marketing exploit?  A rather limited audience for the BIG Release push coming in April.

Maybe they were recording some stuff for the Video Rally School that's supposed to be released with consoles?

The road book is out, interesting read for console players. The game has also finally gone gold! Very excited now!

[Fedemaisonnave 48]

It must be for the next game i think, i also think April is the last update we will have

A whole DiRTy Gossipers Forum on the PS4?  We should feel exploited!  XD

I was planning on spending them similarly, however I feel a more accurate example would be a tree in Wales!

Anyways, Australia has been promised since its proclaimation in DR Live Show which is indeed worth anticipation and wait.

Sound has been tweaked, i do not believe it's been in the minor updates but will appear in the 1.1 version in Apr.

Haha! Perhaps I should reword my previous post then; that image reflects how I want to look during many hours with the game, however it's more likely I'll be spending my time bouncing rallycross cars off the barriers instead of gracefully sliding around corners!

Not DR gossip, but Loeb just confirmed that he is gonna race at FIA WRX with Hansen team!
