I really enjoy Finland every time, no matter what happens and it's our 2nd event this season, starting in 11 hours!

All done with Finland.

Lots of fun, much better than Greece ;) I did manage to fuck my car up so badly that visibility became a real issue due to my crumpled bonnet.  The rain didn't help either.  I was hopping up in my seat trying to see where I was going, like a little old lady trying to see over the steering wheel :D

Lost my lights in the last section of the long 2nd night stage. Overall drove my pace and tried to keep the car in good shape.

I hope you've all noticed already, but if not - we have a timer for each event of the season on the main page now, among the GTA event timers!

Which brings us to the following reminder: 1 day 9 hrs remaining to finish Rally Finland! If you haven't done it already, you've got until Friday 8am UTC to run it!

@Smurf mentioned DiRT Rally would be on sale and now it looks like it is at 80% off.  

I think I want to buy this.  Can you guys confirm that there is a 3rd person option.  Seems all the footage I’ve seen is in 1st person.

@omarcomin71

Yup, there is definitely a 3rd person playing option.

Also, I'm usually trying to save 3rd person or cinematic replays for most of the stages I run, also have those uploaded (and noted down + timestamped in the video descriptions) on the site from last season, when I probably saved the most replays so far. Mostly I just skip saving the replays of the more boring stage runs.

Had an 11 minute stage 2 which killed the car quite a lot. Tried it without the headset on and could hear the co driver a lot better but by that point it was a recovery drive/nursing the car home job. 

 

Well driven mate @DavidCore89

Cheers!

I have to play with headset on max to concentrate on pace notes, my wheel makes a bit of noise on landing jumps as well as gear changes.

Good rally, looking forward to the next.

Finished stage 3 with 3 flats. 

Impressive, i feel sorry for you as I did most of my stage 2 with the same tyre going twice and about half way through, no fronts at all. I got multiple 15 second penalties for killing spectators. Might’ve well as been driving a hovercraft at that point...

League news:

Event 2 finished today and Event 3 (Wales) starts in about 12 hours - the timer has also been updated on the main page to reflect that.

I'll get the videos from the first 2 events up here tomorrow. @Crawford1872@Beez@DavidCore89@LimeGreenLegend@Dodge@Road2fury1583070461

@Con you should consider getting this, it's one of my favourite games for VR.  Even though I suck I love playing it, it feels so much like actually being in these cars driving stupidly fast on dangerous roads! :D

I promise to watch game play and see if it moves me.

All done with Wales, absolutely loved it!  Best event so far.  Managed to not stack it once during the entire thing!  I won't be finishing close to the top, but still pretty chuffed with myself.

Got a video of stage 2, it has both the replay and the view from the driver's seat.  I know I say it a lot, but this game is friggin' amazing in vr.  One of the main reasons I picked the Mini for this event over the Ford is because it has a nicer interior, I was getting sick of sitting behind that bland dashboard :D
