Great rally everyone. Man I love rbr.

I got a call from my work during stage 3 and I wasn't able to get back to racing for 20mins.... Anyway it was really fun.

I was on the phone to a friend till about 3rd gear off the line of ss1

I had a nice intimate moment with a tree on the last stage, unfortunately my engine didn't like it so much

 

[Stephen Carson]

I had wondered what happened you, you had been consistantly that big quicker than me throughout the rally. Then it came to the end of the last stage which I just drove through so I would finish and I was in the lead

I think I drove far to conservatively but then again I did finish so it's hard to say, in the next few events on different surfaces it'll be more interesting as australia is one of the ones I dont really like. (not that keen on original japan or finland either, although both on tarmac are fantastic)

I vote we should old a Rally Ireland with Japan on tarmac, thats the most like the narrow twisty bumpy Irish stages

Good idea, and the odd round from other nations.

What happens when you retire a stage, do you take the nominal time and restart the next stage? (kinda like super rally rules on acting per stage instead of per leg)

Is there any way to have accumulated damage, I thought there was and was worrying when I hit a bank on stage 2 causing some damage to the right rear wheel.

yep - exactly that.... if you retire from the stage you take the default time... i too thought accumulated damage came in this week... but it wasn't in effect in this event.... there's no option to configure it on session creation... but i'll have a dig around and see if i can find out....
