    Hi guys
    As always- i have another question:

    "OPTIONS -> GEARS:
    Neutral Lock: On
    Gear Protection: On
    Clutch Help: On"

    So is it forbidden to have neutral lock and gear protection off? I'm asking, becouse i find those two options VERY annoying while i drive (sometimes gear protection makes reducing gears impossible while doing it could save your car from going off the road).

    Apart from that this is the most difficult rally in championship for me. I find the surface extremely slippery while braking, and i have this stupid habit of breaking hard. Wish good luck to everyone!

    When Championship started those options where set Off, but some
    found this hard! Anyway, you can race with these options Off, If
    It feels better for you! ( I prefer them off too...)

    I agree! I have experienced some lethal crashes lately and I'm not so
    confident for this rally I must say! How can someone be fast and technical at the same time, without hugging a tree?

    P.S. Welcome on board!

    Looking forward to my home rally. I might go out and drive the stages this weekend and do a GPS track. See how close the real thing is.

    I've also got some electronic copies of my roadbook from the last event that i designed if anyone is interested.

    Yes the Mineshaft is very steep, but awesome fun.

    The slippery roads are like that in real life. The surface is a granetic sand type that when it is dry turns to powder after a few passes. It's perfect after a few mm of rain in the previous days as it gets very grippy then. Can be a few sections of red clay though that are diabolical in the wet.

    I actually enjoy this rally as it is the closest to real.

    Once I get my stages built using Bob's track builder it will be awesome. Then we can all run on my stages

    Going to try and build a couple of other rallies as well, maybe Bega and the Shire roads.
