Dirt Rally 2.0 [MEWRL]

Yip, but just 2 long stages, the rest are all short.

Three finished so far, all in the 50 minute range.

Also I feel like I so damn well, but then I had to go and have 3 punctures… Sigh. I also had a moment where a tree was in my was and nothing I did could get me past it. probably wasted 10-20s on that stupid tree.

I somehow clawed my way back up, without any major incidents. I’m praying for a win :crossed_fingers:

It was going fairly well (aside from one puncture) up until I hit a big jump in Stage 9 and screwed up the landing so badly I took out both my two front tyres. I only had one spare so I replaced that and then did the rest of the 3 remaing sectors on 3 wheels. So that killed my time drastically. Still managed to somehow claw my way back to 5th for now.

I know I’ve been a little MIA on the Dirt Rally front for the last couple of weeks, but that doesn’t mean you lot get to ignore all your raving rally fans over in Kiwiland! :new_zealand:

Just a day and a half or so left to get your New Zealand runs in before we head off to Argentina for the finale! You’ve come this far, you may as well finish the season in style. Or terminal damage trying!

Wow, I actually enjoyed a long stage for once. The 16km one was actually fun, I felt like I was really getting into this rally thing. However my confidence made me catch on a lot of kak. Like going off a hill(btw you can not get back up a hill so don’t even waste your time, like I did, just reset) Then I also had a puncture for good measure. Ended up 2 minutes behind the leader.
Last stage I drove for my life to try and get past Gregg, ended up only 40s behind the leader :smiley:

But @GregRedd, what did you do sir? totalled your car or something? I was just over 30s behind you on the previous stage then 3 minutes ahead on the last.

Yeah, completely cocked it up at the end there, didn’t I? That’s not to say my first seven stages were any good - I’m kak at the best of times, but after not driving for most of the last three weeks, it was interesting to say the least :grinning:

The last sector of Stage 8 I picked up double punctures. With only one spare I landed up having to do the whole of the final stage on three tyres and a rim.

And that’s just how easy it is to get a 13-minute stage time kids. Just do what I do and you too can earn a shiny P8 sticker!

Nooooo!!!

And then there was just one left! One rally that is. And it’s a doozy! Brace yourself rallyists - Argentina is calling, and she’s grumpy as hell! Argentina is a notorious car breaker - take extra care when you go driving there. Rather slow and steady than fast and deady!

And even though @Boogey has locked up the Championship, there’s still three in contention to fill the second and third steps on the podium: @aldyr, @Munage and @SlinX. Behind them, three more very close to each other will battle it out for 5th place honours - @Deadlypinecone, @Massa and @DarthMol are just 2 points apart. Myself, @Dragonic, @the9avenger9 and @WarRack101 will all go into the last event hoping not to be the one that slips out of the Top 10 placings.

With all the preparation for the 6 hour enduro I didn’t get a chance to do my drive. I’d better not crash out in Argentina again. There is a bridge that has my name on it.

I’ll be able to do this final leg.

Man I’m really going to have to be on it to get out of 10th. Can’t keep messing up like I do.

So I was up at 3.30 and decided to give it a go and um. Maybe I should have practiced first. :smiley:
