The cat-car, Ford Puma is on the road again, stretching it's legs, fast and stealthy!

General RBR Club Rally Rules:
1. You need to be a licensed member to take part in this event. Gaining a license is a very easy thing to do. Just click here and you will get a license for in a day or two!

2. As always, Club Events are for casual fun racing. It's always great fun to be fastest, and win. But this is not the main thing to achieve in Club Events. The club events are for developing your skills and test new cars and stages.

3. The usual RaceDepartment rule do apply. You need to keep two wheels on the road. Even though this is a rally game. We will not check this on replays, but for yourself, and all the other drivers please follow this rule.

4. RaceDepartments Terms of Service do apply. If you haven't read it, or don't remember the 19 points of the ToS. Please read it again.

5. If you feel the need to contact anyone about something that's happened on the forum or on the stages for some reason, you can always report the post. Or you can send a Private Message to either Ole Marius Myrvold or Roy Magnes (by clicking on the link in the names).

6. The RBR Club Staff reserve the right to ban any person from driving in the Rally Club. The time of the ban will differ from each situation. You can still be banned from the RBR Club, even though you do not lose your RD License, but you cannot drive if you don't have a license.

7. As this is not a circuit, there is no possible way for one driver to affect another during the events. By such, there should not be any reason for drivers to be angry with one eachother after a rally. A good rule is to read through your post before posting it. If it comes across as angry, or full of sarcasm. It might be good idea to wait some more minutes to post. Remember the general RD rule: " Mutual respect between the people using the RaceDepartment.com website(s) and forums. This means you may not personally attack other forum users. malicious behaviour and bullying will not be tolerated. If there is a problem report it to the staff."

DRIVER BRIEFING NOTES:

1. This is a FWD car, and handles quite typical for an FWD. Being a S1600 it is aggressive and fast, but much more forgiving than the older Kit Cars!

2. RBR Pacenotes are designed for default cars, Normal conditions and Good weather. Please remember to adjust your speeds to suit these cars.

3. Tyre selections are the drivers responsibility. If you use the automatic tyre selection option in RSRBR2013, please beware that sometimes it may give you the wrong tyre for the conditions. Always double check your tyres, it is critical, especially for Snow Stages.

4. Please ensure to install the all the packs needed. This means the A6K_3 Car Pack!

5.There is a NEW password for both the servers(sessions) and teamspeak. Please check it out here!

6. Please report any problems caused by the stages, or the inability to make sessions, posts and times right from the Rally Club Staff!

If requests are made for any additional timezones, or changes to Start times to better suit your local needs, we will try to include them ( but within the Monday/Tuesday periods).

And with this post! The sign up is open! We wish everyone the best of luck! And hope that noone gets in any trouble!

[Jonatan Åcerclinth]

This should be interesting. Will I reach the end of each stage before a problem with the Ford ends the stage for me......

[Daniel Monteiro]

ss1: Tarmac tyre was a bad choice which meant i had to be pulled out of the ditch 3 times!

ss2: My first ever time on this stage i think, although i recognized the beginning of the Pribram stage. Bumpy as hell, had my heart almost jumping out of my mouth the moment i realised i went into the new part of the stage, what a thrill at high speed! Even beat Roy here but he must have had issues because even I left the road 2 times at the beginning and won.

ss3 and ss4: Was so happy with stage 2 that I just wanted to go fast, but that (again) resulted in hitting a tree in the first couple of hundred metres...

ss5: spent 50% of the time on the driveable ditch, but at last finished a stage again.

ss6: a very slow roll put me on the side, but still enjoyed the drive

ss7: a few very wide slow corners, but plwed well through the mud to make it a double stage win in session (WOOHOO! )

ss8: was it me or were there all 3 surfaces here? Sometimes i was a mere passenger, but this was really good to learn how to control the throttle, really good fun!

Thanks again guys for organizing, let's see if the low attendance will give me a top 5

 

[Roy Magnes]

I had to call for help on ss1, ss2 and ss7 this time around. I was called on so I missed ss3, and then drove in fury and crashed heavily on ss4 as a result of that. I won ss5, ss6 and ss8 in the session, though, and felt like I had a good flow on my attack here

SS8 was fun with gravel, snow, ice and tarmac all in one, making it a real challenge to get through on my gravel-tyres.

There are still sessions to be created, join in people! I promise you will not be savaged by a big cat if you join!

 

[Senad Subasic]

Just too busy

 

[TTupsi]

Should've taken more cautiously. It was 21:58 when I realised it was Monday and EU session would start in two minutes. Just made it to the start of the first stage but the concentration wasn't there. I gave up after three stages

 

[Senad Subasic]

If you could create a session this afternoon, say, 14 GMT or something, I could drive.


EDIT: I just realized I've become my own worst nightmare; requesting sessions a few hours before they would start
My apologies.

I can create a session for myself when I get home. Since I'm be doing the results, it's allowed! Is it?

In any case, if anyone else wants to join me this afternoon, shout.

 

[Jonatan Åcerclinth]

Was a slightly frustrating evening as my power supply (batteries as I'm on wireless keyboard) decided during the end of SS1 that the supply to my esc buttong wouldn't work anymore so I did the whole event not being able to call for help when needed.

SS1 - Mineshaft:

Had one mayor off where I was going to CFH but couldn't so powered through the trees and got back on the gray stuff. Think I might even have won this stage so I'm all happy

SS2 - Stryckovy-Zadni:

Not even a CFH would have helped....

Came flying through the jump at the beginning of the stage and the rear end decided to fly higher than the front end and I damaged the radiator. The way these 1600 cars work you need to rev them hard to try and get anything out of the engine to tried to get through the stage as quick as possible but the Ford wasn't like the Alfa is and it died around 1.5 minutes before the end of the stage

SS3 - Peklo Tarmac:

Was a scare stage. Tried to solve the Suspension trouble from the stage before but only managed to make it worse so was walking on pins the whole way and Got another stage win as both Roy and Daniel didn't finish the stage
SS4 - Fraizer Wells:

My old nemesis and neither this time did I finish the stage. On the other hand non of us in the EUX session did so..... all won the stage

SS5 - Canyon:
I thought I was on a good flow but a couple of offs here and there didn't help the time but second in the session on a stage I had never ran before, but a whole 9 second behind Roy who was flying at this point

SS6 - Shepherds Shield:
Yay, finally some snow

Didn't help me in my work to try and win the stage though as I was a bit too couthous and finished second, around 6 seconds behind Roy who must have gone "coution to the wind" on the stage as I consider myself quite fast on this stage, my favourite British stage in RBR

SS7 - Sweet Lamp:
Oh, for devils' sake

Another rear end failiure as I came into the medium, bump mid corner and I was coming in quite hot...... I think I was holding 4th and full throttle trying to take as much of the inside as possible.
I understeered and the rear end caught the bump and into a roll I went. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, only 2 or 3 full rolls before I landed on the weels and could get going. Getting back up the hill to the road was harder. The grass was wet and the engine only gives power on high revs so spinning wheels and 30 seconds later I was on the road again.
Was coutious due to the damage I had recieved but still second as I think Roy had an even bigger moment somewhere while Daniel won the stage by a big margin, 32 seconds

SS8 - Kaihuavaara:
Had never driven the stage in Mixed so was expecting Gravel and Tarmac. Snow and Ice was the thing and I understeered off in a Medium Right and got stuck there for about 3 minuted trying to get back out but the engine died and the stage was over for me

Was quite a fun rally with the different conditions we faced and would have been even funnier if I could have had my Esc button working

But all good, see you all next time

 

[Senad Subasic]

I'll put up a session starting in half an hour, if anyone wants to join, feel free.

There's a chance for a podium, can't miss that

Sure thing I had no time to look at the forum if something happened during work today, so I did see this right now.
