o The name of the reported driver (the violator)
o A link to a youtube or vimeo movie that shows the incident in various angles.

How are these cars to handle ?

How are these cars to handle ?

These cars are great fun. You know exactly what the car is doing underneath you and there are no nasty surprises with them.

The Clio's are the only reason I play rf2.

I've really found the Minis in GSC 2012 really enjoyable so I thought these cars would be quite similar handling wise. Have you tried the Minis ?

Yes I have driven the Minis in GSC. Handling wise they are quite similar but IMO I would say the Clios have a better connection to the track compared to the Minis.
