2) Shakedown Australia SS1 Rain

[JTLarsen]

Looking good Tannat! I'm loving the new championship format.

[tannat]

Hello-anyone else out there?

[I am evil Homer]

Hoping to do a quick shakedown tonight...from memory these stages are very tricky in the wet with the very fast sections then the twisty bits! I've visited the scenery on quite a few occassions in the past.

Brake balance is key to a good set up on those stages...keep it neutral or towards the back (if you're happier with a car turning under braking)

[pettersolberg29]

I'm here and will be competing. A minimum of 4th looks possible ;)

[JTLarsen]

No much grip to be found today:

02:57.59
02:59.97
02:57.80

[Rat]

I still cant get the game running right, I wanna run, but I have to do a full install again.

Sorry to hear about your problems, Rat. Hope they get resolved soon.

You aren't near the fires, are you?

[tannat]

Times due tomorrow midnight...

Getting the feeling this event will have a low entry...

[tannat]

Times from Ramore and Frozzy are in :up:

Hope to finish my rally tonight...

[JTLarsen]

We have had a great time in Brasil, and I feel that we could not have done it any better at our current level, and with the time at hand to practice.

[tannat]

Reeceived JTL's timecard and finished my own rally..

Fwd didn't effect our times too severely-times were very respectable for a WRC..


I plan to work on results immediately once the deadline is met. If an extension is needed please request now....

[Zes]

F.A.R.T. has finished the rally!! The rally didn't go very well, but we are still hoping to get some points, if our competitors haven't bother to travel to Brazil... It felt like we lost too much time with our fwd car. We are considering 4wd cars next round.

[JTLarsen]

Getting the feeling this event will have a low entry...

Tannat, last year i recruited 2 new entries for a single round of the BRC by advertising the championship on the Rallystuff.net simulations forum! This new format might attract new entries.

[NOR]

Rally is done. I had a big fun, driving Fabia S2000 on the gravel roads after a long time again. Dry stages were nice and my confidence in the car pushed some of PBs. I had a little crashes on two of the wet stages, so I need to improve handling on wet surface for the future.

[tannat]

Timecards from NOR and Zes' crew (Tuomo and Eetu) :up:

[jso1985]

Just finished the rally, still adapting to the PC version, so times weren't much good I think, still I hope I can take a podium.

BTW, Arcade mode sucks!

[JTLarsen]

BTW, Arcade mode sucks!

I think it's a good idea to get some extra stagemiles, but man... that music kills me! :robo:

[I am evil Homer]

Submitted times (late) as internet was down at home yesterday. Happy to take a penalty if need be.

[tannat]

No worries homer. I was positively worn out late last night. Will get overall times posted today.....

[tannat]

Another win for Homer in the Peugeot leading the Skoda of NOR to the finish by over 40 seconds. 3rd overall and first S1600 was the Toyota of Ramore (your times were fine, mate :up: ). jso1985 took 4th overall/3rd in S2000 followed by Tannat in the second S1600 home. NOR's teammate JTLarsen nabbed 6th ahead of F.A.R.T.'s Zes in 7th. Frozzy took 8th ahead of Tuomo and Eetu finishing 9th and 10th respectively.

1...Homer...........23:48.26
2...NOR...............24:31.90
3...Ramore..........25:07.39

[pettersolberg29]

I apologise unreservedly for missing this, especially after doing the shakedown.

I'll be at Cyprus though!

[Frozzy]

Very happy with the result!! S1600 cars did amazingly well with those times...I had a quick go on a wet stage and my god it was hellish!!!!

[jso1985]

I have that gut feeling that those bloody wet stages cost me the podium...

anyway, still, a great result!

[Ramore]

I am very happy with my first podium for this season and second best S1600 car in a row. This really boosts my confidence for the rest of the season. And honestly, that was may be my best rally for a long time.

But the championship is really well structured. Keep up the good work Tannat!
