Our next Rally is open for sign-up.

This Rally is a continuation of the theme from the last Rally. Again, we stay with the early years of WRC Rally Cars, but move forward a couple of years to 2002. These cars are typical 4WD Rally Cars, but lack some of the power and smarts of modern Rally Cars. The A8W-02 Car Pack has a wide selection of cars available, but all are quite closely matched, with some variation in handling / weight characteristics.

For this Rally, we get down and dirty, often muddy. All Stages will be driven on Gravel, with normal gravel in England, Japan, and USA, followed by two Gravel Mod Stages across France.

The weather is very wet and raining for most Stages, but has started to improve towards the end.

Car Selection Rules: You must select your car from the available list in the sign-up, so early sign-ups get a bigger choice of cars. However, we have an additional twist. You must select a car from a different Manufacturer to the one you drove in the last Rally (Sno-Balls), see more explanation in the Sign-Up.

Don't worry, all cars are closely matched in performance, but may have slightly different handling characteristics. The Stages are varied to help even out any handling variations too.

DRIVER BRIEFING NOTES:

1. These cars are all 4WD and handling should be familiar to those used to driving WRC cars. All cars are similar in performance, but handle differently. The wet weather will make the gravel more slippery than usual, so extra care will be needed.

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.


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).

Please note that Start Times now take into account DST adjustments around the world. Please check your local times.

Good luck all, I hope you have fun driving in the mud. :rally: :signup:


Big thanks to Damien for the neat Banner. :thanks:
