I survived both dailies for a change. And I still haven't look at the leaderboards! Feels great to ignore them. I enjoy the driving all the more for it.

The Subaru R4 felt great. It was so cooperative and pleasant to drive. I cruised through enjoying every kilometer.

The Fiat required a bit more finesse, but eventually I got it to cooperate as well and could cruise through daily 2, too.

Having a real hard time liking Sweden in D4. It's stupidly bumpy.

Didnt have time to attempt today's Daily so I did the Delta daily instead... im a bit annoyed because I know that there is something wrong but I cant quite put my finger on it.. I think I will have to play around with a few settings and a bit more practice...

Daily 1: R5 Peugeot. I got pretty bored of this car in the beginning of the stage. It didn't really put up a fight for any of the corners. I ended up spending the rest of the stage seeing how fast it could corner. I still hadn't found its limits by the time I reached the finishline. Strange car.

Daily 2: I chose the Kadett for this one, as the Mk2 doesn't know how to RWD, and the Fiat seems a bit down on power in Michigan. The Alpine is much too sensitive for me, so yeah. Kadett. I made a quick setup and then went to work, and then the stage was over before I even had time to feel the car and its limits. k

The 1 minute delta daily. :D :D :D :D :D I cant not spam that emote at seeing it was 1 minute. I did do the Alpine, man, it is hyper sensitive even on Gamer handling.

Completed my 208 daily & the game shat itself while posting to the leaderboard.  That's 2 freezes in as many attempts :(

[KevM 44]

Up & running again.  The game has posted a DNF tile on my daily, but my time made it onto the Xbox  leaderboard (9th too, good job)!

[KevM 44]

Anyone else roll over the finish boards of the Historic Michigan daily?? lol

I started a tank-slapper at the cattle grid and just went with it, over the line backwards & rolled  :D

I had a ridiculous unrealistic flip about 10 seconds in. I exceeded my expectations yesterday with the Subaru, but today was full of spins and crashes.

Did my owners daily... Stratos, Sweden. This cars DR problems persists. Way too sensitive steering. I used a grand total of 50 degrees of my 300. Driving through this stage was hell on earth. My force feedback also acts different with this car, all notchy.

If my time makes top 10, I'm Abe Lincoln.

Daily 1 went even worse. Fiesta R5, boring car... hard to stay awake. Then Jen decided it would be a great idea to give me a 4 left, which was in fact a 2. Clipped the wall with the rear, spun. Myeah no. Could do without that sort of rotten luck.

What you did there...now I'll brake for every left 4 :D

For my there was the problem of something like "5 6 6 5 6 ... oh, and sorry for not telling you before, but here behind the crest we just passed at full speed there's a LEFT THREE".

That particular combination came up twice during the stage and it didn't end well at any of the attempts.

[Snaky115 18]

Dammit, wasted my chances to win the Gamer half of the Fiesta daily. :D Didn't do a clean reboot to prevent FPS bugs, so they hounded my braking points.

[Porkhammer 78]

Daily 1, Kadett. Wales. Mistake mistake mistake mistake mistake mistake, and mistake. Also mistakes. Not going to record that garbage.

It just acts so wrong. Like a front wheel drive car. So incredibly stupid. Where's my oversteer?

[KevM 44]

Kadett - Wales.  That's an awesome stage (I saved it in case they fix my rwds), but the Kadett is a bit of a mess I'm afraid.  I used to love that wee car.... :(

205 - Australia.  Remember back when front wheel drives, like the Mini & Lancia, used to understeer when you turned and powered them at the same time, and back when you could throw the weight about under braking to step the rear out on corner entry?  Yeah...  those were the days.  I miss all that...

Yesterdays daily with the R5 in spain. Went well for a change.. then today... not so much...

But that will be up tomorrow night.  ;)

[Porkhammer 78]

Oh right. I forgot my 205GTI daily. Done. Nothing special about my driving, but I enjoy this little angry growling thing.

The 037 daily was very relaxing, quite literally a Sunday drive. Felt great just cruising through, without a care in the world.

[Porkhammer 78]

Why am I the only one posting here? Come on, folks.

S4 daily, Wales - bad driving.
205GTI delta daily, Australia - even worse driving, because Jen called another bad note. Didn't even bother finishing the stage.

Notes definitely needs improving.

[RacEouT 0]

S4 in Wales was kinda meh, not really anything to be proud of, except the skill of spinning out 3 times.
205 GTI in Australia was way better, though I was a bit slow.

My dailies so far have been mainly crashing out and being exceptionally slow :-P 
The 037 one was the first where I had even a whiff of a good run, and still somewhere around P100 and 30-40 seconds off the leading times. Meh.

Cause I've felt ashamed of my recent dailies xD all of them was doown, down on the leaderboards with many rolls. Few DNFs as well. 

And today was an utter failure too.
Had a pretty decent run with the Delta S4 but got a front right puncture mid-stage. 205th so far...

BTW. I love the Delta, it's frightening to press the throttle 100%. 

[Snaky115 18]

In other news, my Daily menu glitched out and rewarded me TWICE for yesterday's dailies and weeklies - i went from 400 000 credits to 1.1 million. :D But yeah, for this round of dailies my PC also decided to be slightly input laggy, even though previous Pug daily was fine. -shrug- Slightly slowed me down.

[foppaldo 0]

If my better half would stop calling me for anything and everything, these events would go much better. Bah.

[Scyy 0]

I think I finally got one of my first top tier places on the delta s4 daily. I really enjoyed that car, think I might like it more than the pug in dirt 4. Still had a couple spins and slow downs but much more consistent than I have been on dirt 4 dailies.

[METAL666nz 0]

Loved the delta S4 daily, just wished it would go a little more sideways. Was 37th this morning NZ time which for me was a huge achivement.
