Our next Rally is open for sign-up.

We proudly introduce the Annual Richard Burns Tribute Rally 2012, an event we will run every year to commemorate the great English Rally driver who contributed so much to this exceptional Rally Sim.
He was sadly lost to the world due to illness at a very young age, but achieved the ultimate prize of WRC Champion in 2001.
Of course, we will drive the car in which he won the 2001 World Rally Championship, the Subaru Impreza WRC 2001, and we have tried to simulate the various Rallys of the 2001 Season, with a big variety of Stages, surfaces, and weather.

The 2001 Subaru is a typical WRC car, and the default RSRBR Suby is using the Richard Burns skin.

We have introduced Realistic - Accumulating damage for this rally, to allow newer drivers to experience this format prior to the first Round of the RDRC.
This means that damage from a stage is carried over to the next Stage until the next SERVICE park. It also means that tyre choices must cover the next Stages until SERVICE, tyres cannot be changed between SERVICES.

DRIVER BRIEFING NOTES:

1. This car is typical WRC. It is 4WD, fast, with reasonably balanced handling.

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 RSRBR2011, please beware that sometimes it may give you the wrong tyre for the conditions. Always double check your tyres, it is critical, especially when changing to Snow Stages.

4. Accumulating Damage: Damage can not be repaired between services, nor can tyres be changed, so choose your tyres carefully at each SERVICE Park, and make sure to minimise damage on the stages.
Some compromise will be needed with tyres for some stages, but most stages are not too different.

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).

Good luck all, and hope you enjoy this one.

Thanks to Jeff Feaker for the inspiration for this Event.

Here is a tribute movie to the great driver, whose life was tragically cut short by a devastating illness. RIP Richard Burns but his memory lives on in this great Rally Sim.
