I have install RBR about a month ago and I’m surprised!!
At first I didn’t make good results but a friend told me not to disappoint.
He was right!
I still don’t play the game very well but comparing my times to yours I’m not the last one.
I would like to read your opinion about my participation in RBR.
I have to wait some more or I can take part now?
I can’t wait a lot of time because game is fantastic!
I also surprised from the <<traffic>> on this thread.Everyone sends his opinions and the conversation is amazing.Even LCD's work is hard and beautiful.I’m looking forward to your posts!!

Hi jimakos! I can tell You that- as far as i know, EVERYONE is welcomed to participate! It doesn't matter if You're driving rbr for 3 years or 3 days! As You can see everyone is really friendly here, and everyone is going to be really happy if another contender will join championship. Just to let You know- i didn't play RBR for a while as well, but I didn't hesitate to try my luck in this rally. Once again- don't hesitate- JOIN US!!!

Now as for Shakedown stage. i crashed 2 times damaging gearbox at the beginning of the stage, then i made it thru to the finish 2 times. i didn't write down my firs pass, but second one was:
3:38:62
I don't like to run the same stage all the time, so this is my only entry for Shakedown. Good luck to rest of You, and let's encourage jiimakos to join us in this rally!

edit:@raybak- I'm looking forward to stages You're making! And could You please send me a roadbook copy You made (ogsamek{AT}gmail.com)?

There's a lot of practice ahead...

[S.Bera]

Shakedown time 1st run 3.59.87

[NeverKnow]

I did drove 5 times the shakedown stage and here are the times:
1.3:46,13
2.3:36,79
3.3:33,52
4.3:34,72
5.DNF
On the fifth run I made a mistake in a corner about 2 km from the end of the stage. I didn't break early enough for the corner and understeered off the track, luckily missing the trees but car wouldn't restart and it had to be towed back to service area. My mechanics took quick look around the car and found that one of the wires linking the ECU and engine had snapped. After the fix the engine fired up and is ready for the rally.
Surprisingly I found out that the best setting for the springs, that works for me, is nearly as stiff as in tarmac setup. Unfortunately this means that the car is unforgiving and if you make a mistake, you are off.
This is going to be a very tough rally and I hope I can finish it without crashing. Also good luck to everyone and have fun!
