Thank you Mr. Hatward! So quick getting on top of stuff!
I've just checked the Wager leaderboard - seems like you are too! ;)

I wager that my time will be absolute anus, because I just finished chest and tri's and can hardly operate anything in front of me. 

However, I'm really into this new blind daily wager thing :D can't wait to try

Seriously though, that's awesome, Hatward. Do we need to own the car for this one still?

Yes, at the moment all events in Daily 2 require you to own the vehicle. But we are in the process of unhooking that restriction.

I actually managed to crash in the final corner of the daily, haha. Turned in too early and hit a pole. So yeah, ragequit.

Owners' club went better - 2:47.926 and quickest so far. And by the beard of Zeus - I believe V2 tarmac has improved? The Colin McRae Rally-ness is a lot less apparent when driving now. It's still a little visible on TV-camera replays, but it feels miles and miles better to drive - @KickUp has something been done or am I being psychotic again?
This. I think the R4 cars feel really good on tarmac. Did you try your beloved 2001-cars also? They were the cars that "crabbed along" the most.

Would love some input from @KickUp on this :)

Never done Finland in the rain, happy to be almost exactly midway - if I can win my money back excellent! Nerve wracking; I don't have many credits to play with (not done much career mode).

I did not record the replay of this because it's supposed to be a big hush hush.
Well that doesn't sound at all related to a community testing branch 2 being created.

wat

I mean hush hush as in... hidden daily. It wouldn't be very nice if I posted a replay of a supposedly hidden daily, now would it? :P

Aheh, it's been appearing the last few days. When you said hush hush, I actually thought you were involved in that, rather than just trying to maintain the integrity of the wager daily.

The regular daily went quite well right until I hit the yellow sign before the finish and my 1.2 ton car was sent FLYING off the cliff. Yeah, that wasn't a very nice thing for the little sign to do.

In the wager daily I spun once, but otherwise got through without any other scary moments. Should get my money back. \o/

I did try my pedals and paddles as well, and even turning my wheel... none of them seemed to affect the credits bar. Maybe this helps in some way.
Right paddle shifter worked to max the wager for me.

I didn't have an appropriate car to do the wager, I could have bought it and went without upgrade, but I would have had no credits to bet with lol

Wat? You don't need to own the car in the wager? I pressume you are handed a secret car that is upgraded, just like the original daily?

@Hatward had previously said it was still an owners event as before, so I didn't proceed.  As I have said, I was in catch22, if I bought, I had no credits, if I didn't, I believed I couldn't enter

No, it wasn't owners event. I drove the Lancer that I haven't yet.
And I think it can't take your money if you can't proceed.

Ye I did the wager without owning the Lancer. No idea if it was upgraded or not though.

Daily: I think this was a fast time, I'm not sure. It's hard to tell with such a forgiving car.
Wager: Slow but flawless run to ensure a top tier finish.

Now I can talk about yesterday wager.

First of all, all in!! 200k
Dont thik about it, just did it.

...but then that 0/4 upgraded R4 lancer broke all my espectations hehe

Not much problem at all, short gears and went decent fast enough to get top tier (I think, I´ll check later...).

We haven't seen gheed, rampage, or simulant drive yet... of course I assume I'm slow. That way I'm not disappointed when beaten. ;)

As for the wager daily... why take risks and lose 250k? Just driving through and make no mistakes and bam, guaranteed credits.
