This is going to be tough... Did some practice I'm consistently 30+ seconds off @Tigerkart_22's times and finished stage 3 with very little car left after destroying the back of a roadside Volvo and using the wall to get round most of the hairpins. And I haven't even tried the night stages yet...

I'm sure you won't be the slowest mate

 

[Hampus Soderberg]

Confidence for me is quite high here, Monaco is definitely the place I tend to do the best. I'm sure with 70 drivers I can expect some to absolutely smash me anyway, and leave me left wondering "how the hell did they do that?"

 

[Tigerkart_22]

and leave me left wondering "how the hell did they do that?"

Me with @Nico at the moment. Top 5 in the world around Pra D'Alart and about 13 seconds faster than me (and my time is around the top 50 mark!) :shifty::shifty:

have not played this game properly in half a year, might start practice tomorrow, but i just wanna get top 40 tbh ^^

Haven't played the game for a while now as I was doing GTA and Asseto Corsa lately, but yesterday I jumped in and tit that practice rally on Monaco with my Imprezzza and boy o boy, the car is nice to drive.

I had some killing streak of spectators until I get the grips with the FFB and wheel feeling again, but after a while I vas OK on the track. But that foggy/afternoon stages are killing me

 

[DemoN]

First time doing stage one I managed a 7:07. Had a few spins, but lost LOADS of time as soon I hit the second "ice patches from here". Literally no grip there and it surprised me so much xD I'm staying with the pad for the moment, I just don't feel naturally quick and consistent on the wheel as of yet and risk embarrassing myself!

 

[RBOS_00]

I'll just be hoping to not be near the back. Driving rally cars is fun but I don't exactly know how to drive them fast and consistent so I'll be trying to gain some skill as the season goes!

 

[DemoN]

Can't decide whether to be a maverick or cruise it. My pace is probably decent enough to do well but my chances of not crashing at my best pace = 0

 

[Troyfmcg]

6.38 on Pra D'alart.

 

[Tigerkart_22]

The afternoon stages will be absolute make or break, no headlights make it extremely difficult to see where your going

 

[Hampus Soderberg]

I've done quite a lot of running at pra'd alart just because I wanted to see what kind of time I could find from setting in the practise.

Think I started with something like 6:38 and now I got in a 6:28.9 which obviously would be quite competitive. (this is not the kind of level I assume to keep tho, it's easy to get a good time when just doing a stage over and over). The important thing is that I feel confident in how to drive the car fast.

 

[alexukr]

Saw like three AOR guys in the top 15, RIP a good result, strange feeling considering i was always competing for wins and podiums in F1.

Did a 6:48 in the stage everyone is practicing, though it was in sunny conditions so hopefully i can really limit the damage in the tarmac sections as i felt good there.

Tbh i hate the fact that DR has so few unique stages. Some guys know every inch of this game , but rally is about reacting to the obstacles ahead and not memorizing the track perfectly.

Also a shame that codies is not offering the martini livery or at least the jolly club one.

 

[Laakso]

Bought the game yesterday =D already got to pretty good speed hoping to get in top 40 =PP

Edit: 6.43 on first stage =P

btw are you all using default setups or do you change sth and if so, is there a good setup tutorial?

Maybe try this guide!

well I haven't gone too far into setups, I'll be stealing one from one of you guys as I do for F1

 

[alexukr]

Can you actually do that in DR and if you find one i think i would be fair to share it with me as a compensation for the setups you stole from me in F1 ^^
