Rally - Annual Richard Burns Tribute Rally 2012

[Thomas Grzmil]

I didn't have any high expectations > was testing universal setups from this forum it was a lot of fun

 

[Ryan Murray]

man... no practice + powerful car + unknown stages = hilarity and plenty of red i'm sure.


UPDATE
YEP. lots of red. finally got a good feel for the car later on. Also I learned to not have multiple cam-hacks open. quite the learning experience, but crazy tracks and crazy car! fun times.

Thanks again for the rally!

Great start before the rally for me, just pored boiling noodle soup over my right hand Hurts like s***! But i will drive!

 

[Jeff Feaker]

Overall, I think I had a really good really. I over shot some of the tight turns at hardwood forest, had to reverse but didn't hit anything. I also hit a tree with my tail on Bisanne but it didn't do much to the car, it drove the same. The tarmac tracks get me but I managed to get through them. The Monte-Carlo mod... just feels slow, I think that's why I don't particularly like that mod. Still fun tho. I do however love Finland, smooth & fast tracks regardless the terrain. I didn't practice much at all for this even tho I suggested the event.

Thanks Warren & Senad for posting the event and for the speedy result postings.
Damien your the man with the banners dude. Makes it much more appealing to new drivers.

Fun rally but a comedy of errors for me. The worse part of it was losing engine controls on 7th stage & starting the final stage with the same thing - no throttle... It turned out to be that my pedal cable came unplugged at the wheel. And all this time I thought it was just the accumulated damage.

Don't thank for speedy results yet; not at home, results won't be up for at least another 7 hours

If I try to get in to the server after the allotted time (2mins too late), am I too late??

 

[Andrew Fearby]

technical difficulties!!

 

[TTupsi]

Gonna skip this one after all. Just guess how tired I am at the moment after staying up all night long watching that 6 hour long Daytona... It was 8 am when I finally got to sleep

 

[Andrew Fearby]

I cant select the rally, whats up with the that?

 

[Jack Hintz]

and as usual, I fail once again
I did so many stages well and then lost concentration after doing an ogier on Joux Verte.
then my net decided to cut out during mineshaft which was even better!
anyway, did enjoy what I did manage to get done.
Cheers Warren and Senad once again ^^

 

[Andrew Fearby]

I dont know what has happened. It asks for me to change the time of my pc, which I do, but it still thinks its wrong. Can anyone help?

 

[Andrew Fearby]

Plus I still cant select the rally.. even though I was here at 8:30pm??

 

[Andrew Fearby]

Sorry for the newby whinging, but if anyone can assist it would be heaps appreciated. I was really looking forward to my first event!!

 

[Jack Hintz]

change the time of your pc to +1 just for the session. you cant access it now since its over, but maybe you can catch another?

 

[Andrew Fearby]

Tah Jack, I tried that and it didnt seem to help.. then I changed my RSRBR setting back to +1 (I had that on +10 :eek: ) .. and it seems to work properly now, but yeah too little too late!

On the bright side, should be sorted for next time! Woo Hoo!!

That was enjoyable, although I had a couple of strange bugs tonight.
The first 4 stages went quite well, (by my standards), but I made a few silly errors on SS05 and SS06, costing a lot of time but finished them ok.
Ran a pretty poor Mineshaft, couldn't get used to the car sliding a lot, but finished in a rather slowish time. However, my final time didn't show in the Server, it just kept showing "in progress" even though I had finished.
So I went to SS08, and my time for that Stage showed ok. However, I had a very strange experience half way through SS08. Suddenly the car died, it would rev ok but wouldn't drive, almost like something was jammed under the car. I kept stopping and going forward again, and eventually it started driving ok again. After checking the replay, it seems that the rear wheels just locked up and stayed locked, as if the handbrake was applied (but I hadn't touched the handbrake). Then suddenly, it unlocked again after about 20 seconds or so. Really weird.
Never seen that bug before. As a result my SS08 time was pretty poor.

Oh well, it was still an enjoyable Rally, I thought the Suby was ok to drive, but it was hard adapting to the changing surfaces and weather.
Thanks to Jeremy for the TS chatting, and Mike while he was on TS at the start.

Senad, I have Emailed you my HTML times file and the screenshot, to confirm my times for SS07.

If a new session will be created later tonight I will try to join that one. I missed both the sessions I wanted to try last night because of the rebuilding of my end of the second floor where I live. My gaming computer was the first thing to be moved out of the room, and of course it was the last item to get out again aswell

I'm much too lazy and busy and tired to do the results now, so I'll create a session for you, and do it all later tonight

20GMT?
