So you are telling me, the one time I get into the top10 on a daily, it's because of bugs ? eehh, I should have known :D

Still nothing, really? Come on, I NEED TO KNOW WHY. D: Eh, no visible time, gives me a good reason not to render the video then.

I know about 3 more guys from our DiRT group who had time around 2:30 and they are not listed. What's wrong? (Not me.. I am happy I made it without puncture ;) )

Both my dailies went smooth. Good balance between risktaking and keeping it on the road. I even did the owners' club daily without upgrades or practice. :smiley:

No reward for yesterday either. Pretty cool guys. That 10k would have looked really good atop the other millions. I guess we all cheated.

Yesterday only did the delta daily (the one with the Pug), which went quite ok, was 12.6 seconds behind the fastest time. Today was great for the Stratos daily and terrible for the Manta. In the Stratos I'm 40th currently, with 13 hours to go :D In the Manta I messed up one corner, crashed off the trach and in the process lost my rear tire and busted all of the headlights. Didn't even try to limp forward, just retired, like f**k it :D

Mine went okay, didn't practice with the Manta, still 3rd place, not bad :smile:  Stratos went okay too, though I could have been faster

OMG... default setup for gravel on 306 is just wrong.

Why do I need a 100km/h first gear?! (not even on tarmac; but Im not arguing if this is real or not...) where can I get 300km/h of top speed at 6th gear?  xD

Been doing quite well in the kit cars in greece, so figured I could make it to a top 50 time for the first time today. Snagged a rock 15 seconds into the run and flew off the track (with a puncture of course). Got furious with myself and went to the other dailies where I managed to wreck the car pretty much instantly aswell.

Oh well, there's always tomorrow. I have my mind set on getting at least one top 50 time this monht :-)

Well, you know what they say - the slower you go, the further you get :D Let me guess, that "right four, tightens to three" near the beginning got you with the Lancia?

My 306 daily didn't happen. It was going very well until I took a frisky exit out of a fast bend and encountered this medium-sized bush. The bush spoke to me. It said "I don't value you as a person", and thus made me go from 160 kph to 0 in a matter of milliseconds. "Fine" the little angry person inside me said, "if I can't compete for the top spot, I shan't compete at all!" and promptly CTRL-ALT-DEL'd and terminated the process with a very angry look on my face. Once I again had achieved inner peace, I made this:

I'll see if I'm in the mood to do the owners' club later.

Well, I did do the owners' club daily. But apparently it was over so quickly that the leaderboard forgot to include me. Oh well! http://i.imgur.com/RsNOQDa.jpg

Oops, lost a second or more of my final Pug Maxi time due to a start bug. I was moving around the menus too quick, left the shakedown and immediately started the race - i started from far back, where the pre-race intro scene would start. Dammit. I always do this when i need it the least. >_< Apart from that, great run for an un-upgraded Pug Maxi. >_>

My 037 daily wasn't so fantastic. I lost control of the car on no less than three occasions. I still managed a 2:48 though.

The 306 owners' club went a bit better and I set a new PB. I normally loathe FWD cars on asphalt but this was alright.

Buggered my 306 Maxi run up. didn't do a shakedown, and my own setup just felt odd, and like i had no brakes too. Cheered my self up by re running the stage in custom event and beating Porkies time!

My both dailies went all over the place. Didn't do a practice run and well, it was just one of those days when nothing works. A bit too slippy in the 037 and my tiny experience with the kit cars avenged me. Did the weekly A class run too and not too shabby. Maybe it's a better day tomorrow? :D

The 037 daily was a safe and mostly clean run, apart from a missed braking point und a subsequent off that cost me 3 or 4 seconds. To my surprise, I'm still in the top 100, though.

The 306 was another story, as I just bought it and have minimal experience with it. Faster than the delta time at least...

I've almost given up on running dailies with the 037. I simply can't run it with default setup, feels like I go off road or spin without warning if I pressure it even the slightest.

Okay, done both Dailies today, Monte Carlo could have been better, but I guess 4th place will have to do, Daily of Germany with the Ibiza went better then expected, we'll see what my position is tomorrow after Porkhammer and Ji1 had their shot at it.

Worry not, I'm generally not very quick in fwd cars... unless it's on gravel. So don't be surprised if you're ahead! ;) It's ji1 you must worry about. That boy is quick with every car.
