I have finished my rally. I started this rally with a goal to keep out of trouble but that plan flew out the window early on. I had many spins on the stages and messed up hairpins. My record was on SS10 where I spun twice in 400 meters. Another interesting incident was on SS06 at the place where it gets really narrow and you have to drive between the houses. The 307 isn't the narrowest rally car, I misjudged the corner and I turned in too early. The result was I hit the house on the left because the angle was too shallow and the car got stuck. It took me a while to sort out the mess. Despite the incidents I did enjoyed this rally and I'm looking forward to seeing the results.

Now, I'm finished with the rally! great fun, but I had not drive RBR for some time, so I feelt little rosty ;)
I had the same plan as some of you - get a clean run! I did som minor misstakes in some stages, and took it to careful in many places but in other "flat out" (so fun) :D

But with some misstakes, and a ok tempo, Im glad and this was funny!!

It will be funny to see the result! ;)

Good luck all!

Finished the rally, but what can i say, absolute disaster!!
I'm no tarmac specialist and especially on those bumpy Czech stages and Noiker, Many many spins and am not expecting a very good overall time. First day went alright but turned into a nightmare on the last day. Ended up running gravel tyres on the last stage for a bit of fun. Anyway expecting to be near bottom of the leader board.
Huge thanks to Macd for running the event :)

[Astro83]

Doid also go for gravel tires on last stage to get some time on the longer gravel sections and I hope that this was the right choose... :D

[leighton323]

They are like driving on Jelly on the Tarmac sections, always under steering.
Getting used to the wheel as well! ;)

[Astro83]

What car did you all drove? Was I the only one in a N4? :)

I drove a Subaru Impreza N4.
