I did my rally in EU3 and I'd like to join EU4 for practice. Am I allowed to pick a car from a class that isn't part of the championship(like, group B)?

I would say yes, you did your rally, you can practice or just drive for fun in other sessions.

This will be pretty interesting. I'm used to G27, have to use DFP now (the pedals are wierd, what's 5% brakes on G27 is 100% here...). French co-driver (forgot to switch after reinnstall...) nice... I know left and right on french, and I can count on french, but here it's "fast, easy, flat etc, not 1,2,3", so I know where to turn, but not how fast. And no force feedback. I love easter holidays!

Oh well, SS1: Used inters, worked well, fastest in my sessiong.

SS2: 4 spins, lost over 30 sec

SS3, two small spins and one huuuuuuuge (lost around 20 sec on that alone), 15 sec behind fastest so far (no time from Roy when I write this)

SS4: Crap, broke the gearbox in 1st, and then stalled. Retired.


End: This was the rally I had planned to shine in, but the easter holiday screwed that... I need to get a good result soon!!

 

[Roy Magnes]

I had fun tonight. Could have gone with snow tyres on SS1, daaaang how slippery it felt :tongue: From there on I did some good times, allthough I have been slightly faster on snow on the same stages. Smashed my clutch with 3 km to go on SS6, and lost a lot on SS7 aswell... When I then crushed the car completely on SS8 I decided to call it a day. Thanks for letting me test, Senad, was really fun with the SX4

 

[Norbert Leitner]

I forgot to sign up, but i complete in the EU4 session

 

[Dariusz Swiderski]

When can we expect the results? Is there any session still to go?

 

[Norbert Serban]

Could you send to me a few repalys, please, because I want to make a short highlights music video
So, my rally is so good, I made a few, little mistakes, and once time, I hitted a photomaker on the Sikakama.
7th in overall this session is pretty good, only one CL car overtook me. I hope I will stand on the podium, in the CL.

EDIT: If you doubt in my work, watch my highlights videos, on youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/jegember95?feature=mhum

[Norman Biscuits]

Wooo! I managed to hold on to a top ten spot in the champions

 

[Sebastien Levret]

Yeah, a great event for my team.:banana:

I hope everybody enjoy racing in my lands ! I love so much Finland, the very fast track and the very big jumps !!!

Big congrats to my team mate for his first podium with a WRC in this championship.:doublethumb:

After Jakub was retired in the SS2, I can drive the whole event without pressure, I just need to be clean to keep a good general time to avoid a surprise in the other sessions.
Jakub, what kind of tires did you used in SS1 ? A wrong tires choice was the reason of your retired ?

Well done also to Attila, who everytime (exept the last round) made a very good result. It will be interesting to see the end of the season for the fight for the top 5.

Simone and Dariusz create a great fight in the EU4, well done. And Rick put the first focus in P4, great !

Congrats to Nigel, who won in the champion league ! Very surprise to see 55s between you and Norbert !
Did you make wrong choice of tires, Norbert ?

And also a big thanks senad, Łukasz and Rick for this event !

 

[Robb Kulcsar]

Congrats to the winners! Hope next event I have time to practice at least one time .

 

[Nigel Atkins]

thanks Seb

with so much motorsport to watch over the weekend i didn`t get chamce to test anything but dry tyres so i went with wets then inters for the 1st stages, and looking at the times for SS04-SS07 maybe Norbert chouse dry`s? it would be nice to know what tyres people picked, i know some might what this kept a secret but in real rallying its easy to find out what tyres everyone used

well i must admit i realy didnt expect to finish with 5 stage wins and overall win in class

as i didnt do as much practice as i normaly do i can only ashume that my new tactic between stages helped me stay focused which lead to me making few mistakes and drive my best rally ever

huge thanks to all the RDRC staff and looking forward to the next event

As far as I know, you can't view replays of BTB stages.
