Thanks I would join you but I'm racing rF2 at that very moment

These cars are twitchy as hell and softening the rear springs seems to make it worse.

Time to wing it in the Starlet!

When I was adjusting my set-up, I increased the front brake pressure, and decreased the rear. Then in the game I went to brake for a corner and my rear slid out. I remembered that RWD cars in RBR are FWD cars with 5/6 reverse gears, then did a little experiment with the front and rear ride height.

Yep, set-ups are reversed for RWD cars.

Right then. I'll have to remember that for next time...

Just finished my rally, and it went better than expected, though still not flawless. I was surprised that Joux Plane had been replaced with another iteration of Joux Verte, but I rolled with it. Apart from some dumb spins on Prospect Ridge, Ivato and Cote D'Arbroz, and my car somehow getting stuck in 2nd gear after a minor crash on Bisanne 2, things went alright. Not expecting wonders with the Starlet, but when it decided to co-operate with me it was a fun little car to drive.

See you all next time!

Ah, that happened to me too, didn't even notice Joux Plane was missing .

I missed the start of SS1 by a minute and the rest of the rally was a bit of hassle too. Gravel stages were ok mostly. More RWD rallies please

I won a stage and got 4th overall, awesome!

Got to work on not going the wrong way on a few stages though...
