    A good and steady shakedown:

    00:59.49
    00:58.47
    00:59.19 <-- change of gearbox, hit tree
    00:57.77 <-- choice of gearbox confirmed

    Gotta be carefull at this rally though.. last year my Ford Focus ended up looking like a Nissan Micra!

    I need a soft suspension to make the grip better, and less the slidings.
    I can control the car much better by releasing the throttle in that way.

    I hope you can understand, what i'm writing!

    I don't think that it does, I use a quite soft suspention setting too, and you spend less time repairing the suspention this way.

    I dont think so, i dont see the difference!

    On the other hand there are much more flat part in finland, than jumps

    I prefer better controlling on flat surface to end up between the trees.
