Nice driving there! How did you get the bumper cam? I've been trying to get that for a long time, my favorite driving view.Quote:

I guess New Bobs looked alright, but I'm pretty slow in the latter half as it's a new stage for me. Never went past the halfway point during practice, always kept crashing, but kept it together for the final run. Still pretty slow. I have to improve a LOT before I even think about winning a rally soon. Below is the video of my run at New Bobs:

Just waiting for times from Paddy and Paul now.
Very interesting rally - one championship contender was out of the fight from stage 1, there was a big scrap for the lead and there are clearly no team orders in a specific team! Oh, and by the end of days 1 and 2 a certain VW Polo S2000 car was seriously embarrasing a whole pile of WRC cars. It's a pity I stuffed the last day, otherwise a top 5 finish was genuinely on the cards!
Very interesting indeed! Can't wait for the results. I like the S2000 cars so far more than the WRC cars. Not because they're easier to handle, but they're more fun to drive. For example, I might have gone faster with the WRC car on Mineshaft II, but with the S2000 car it was more enjoyable.Quote:

Not more embarassing than my Cote D'Arbroz run-Struggled to finish, without breaks and only with 5th gear... :(Quote:

I usually edit [Cam_internal] part but it takes trial and error to get it right. Heresa little tutorial for it.Quote:

Driving the 205 GTI on the limit was a challenge enough. The car has no power out of hairpins or up hills. God only knows what inspired me to select it! Anyway, I kind of enjoyed the run. It was certainly different to the challenge of a WRC car: a lot easier in many respects, but harder to drive on the limit when you want to shave a few seconds off your time.
Results will only be out tomorrow afternoon- its a holiday here today.
I had planned on submitting times for S2000 and WRC for this event, but in the wee hours when I ran my rallies I lost focus after doing my S2000 run.
I wish I had submitted WRC times as I am finding my stage times about 10-20 seconds faster :(
