Monte Carlo...when you keep your car togehter for 6 stages running at a decent speed and fall of the cliff during the last one!

Yup! The place where the spectators can recover your car from a whole load of strange places, but not form the easy ones
It's fun though ^^

just found it by chance in my club section, haven't played the game for a fortnight or so. thx for setting this up, done two stages, hope to do the rest tomorrow.

Did the first loop with asphalt tires, and spun twice on the asphalt... And hit a solid guardrail with some people behind, giving me an auto-reset. But on the final 4 stages it went a lot better, I took snow tires for those. Do not know what would have been faster for me there, though

 

[Neilski]

I did a trial run. Asphalt tyres were great on stage 1, mostly OK on stage 2, and a total horrific disaster on stage 3. I think the latter stages were pretty much winter-tyre stages too, given that you only get to choose tyres at stage 4 and 7...
Have now run the first loop for real, setting a rather slow time!

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

ouch, was slowest of the ones not DQed and already making mental notes for press conference after finish when I hit an ice patch towards the end of the second to last stage and - poof - over the wall into the forest, a classic Tännak. Over and out. Enjoyed the stages a lot, haven't really had time to play them since I bought them some months back, brought back some Dirt Rally memories.

 

[Neilski]

Darn, I better get on with finishing the rally! Ooops...

Btw, I'm confused about the DLC rules with this flipping game: I bought "DiRT Rally 2.0 Deluxe Edition". Does anyone know if this means I get all the DLC that has been released so far?

 

[Neilski]

Finished!
Was slow, slow, slow just about everywhere, but then bizarrely I got a green split on the last stage(!!). Does this mean I had the fastest time for that split? Very confused now, cos I was mostly losing 3-6 seconds per split, LOL.
And yeah, the stages did remind me just a wee bit of the DR1 stages...

 

[LuMue]

Green split means faster split than the guy that set the fastest stage time so far.
The stages in DR2.0 ARE the stages from DR1, just reworked!

Yeah, it feels as though they even kept the same patches of ice, but I didn't check

No, Deluxe is only Season 1+2. Super Deluxe is 1+2+3+4.
Year Pass is on sale now though. Which includes all.
