Our next Rally is open for sign-up.

Warren has some health issues, and can't spend much time at the computer, so I'm posting this one. Apologies for it not being up to Rally Club's usual standards

This is a generic gravel rally, the newest WRC cars, on nice, flowing gravel stages all around the world. I threw in some weather and time of day changes to (hopefully) make it more interesting.

Since the forum is having some difficulties these past few days, you might not get a chance to sign up, so feel free to just jump right in on Monday/Tuesday night.

Please save a couple of your replays, and send them to me. I'll try to make a small video with some rally highlights :good:

Good luck all, and hope we see a good roll up. :rally:

[Rick Bamford]

Rick Bamford (Lucifer) - OC

I haven't driven the C4 yet, must be time.

 

[Senad Subasic]

LOL, looks like it's just you and me this time

 

[Rick Bamford]

LOL, whats going on?

Maybe with the forum going down others have been having trouble getting on.......................well I hope so, lol.

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

I'll give it a go. Finland on anything other than snow is going to be ridiculous as always (banks!), but it should be good fun .

Whoops. Forgot the important part:
Łukasz Demolin (Maggot666PL) - EU zone

 

[Senad Subasic]

Woot, we're up to three now :woot:


I love gravel Finland, even with the silly banks and everything . I just hope the cars won't be too fast for me to enjoy :eek:

 

[Aaron DeMarre]

Nice, 4 drivers. 2 more, and we can have a full WRC season :woot:

[Robb Kulcsar]

Senad, you only need one driver to have a WRC season, Seb Loeb )). And only one winner, anyway 7th title for him, he's a God.
RobKull(r27kul)- Eu Time. I'll take the Focus I think.

 

[Dariusz Swiderski]

I will be in, still not sure about time but probably EU time zone. This time i'll drive the C4 i think.

[Dariusz Swiderski]

GL guys

 

[Robb Kulcsar]

I hate night, I have the worst headlights ever !

 

[Łukasz Demolin]

Gah. I missed the start by one second... Ah well, wasn't prepared anyways .

Finland on gravel is indeed lots of fun to drive. Pacenotes are completely unreliable though. Just like in France. You MUST have the stage memorized to be fast there. I was starting to feel the flow on SS8, but my pace was hindered by two missed hairpins (well, more like junctions) which were called 50 meters ahead, and I was coming in hot, on 4th gear, sideways. Add two trees in the mix (I don't know how the car survived the second, taken absolutely head-on on full throttle).

Was my first time in C4 (and all my preparations consisted of switching the wheel off in cockpit view and messing around with brake pressure before SS2 start ), it's actually a pretty awesome car to drive. Way out of my skill though .

 

[Dariusz Swiderski]

I've just made it 10 min before the start, no practice at all so i decided to do this flat out, no caution whatsoever and the results are:
countless dead spectators, numerous CFH and 1 DNF . But what fun i had lol. I will have sooo much material for your video Senad, it will be hard to choose which replays to give lol. And the C4.... WHAT a tough little car this is and very well balanced, i wish i've chosen it for the championship, no wonder Seb had won so many titles with it.

Will watch the replays now , can't remember what happened on which stage as it was fast and furious lol.

 

[Senad Subasic]

Looks like an eventful rally for you guys. I missed it too, will be in the OC tomorrow.

No idea what I'll drive though. Tried the Lancer, but didn't care for it much. I might go for the C4 too, hope it's as well built as you say (it will have to be, if I'll be driving it.)

 

[Warren Dawes]

Sorry, I won't be able to join the OC Rally tonight, I still can't spend much time at the PC.
This is getting very frustrating. :frown:
Thanks to Senad for taking over the whole shebang for a bit, :thanks:
