I think Sweet Lamb is going to claim a few casualties.

Devrij seem to be turning late are u using handbrake ? you will get better just keep practicing.

i am mastering welsh tracks doing over and over . starting to know the corners without looking.

great time killswitch.

Im sitting 2nd but really didnt have a good race, head wasnt in it.
so not hopefull about staying there.

Thanks mate! I had to hold off a lot as I'm really not familiar with most of the stages and it was my first run out in a Group A car having only driven the Mini and the MKII Escort so far. I'm sure one of the pros here will sweep my times aside. :D

Hear, their, everyware ;)
Hows this run with a pad?

I imagine it's decent enough and if so i may get it.

I'm struggling more with a Wheel (T500RS) than I was with an XBox 360 PC Gamepad, but it seems to be very fussy about Wheel Settings and won't even save them when you exit the Game, think I'll try again tomorrow with sorting settings for the Wheel and if it's still no good I'll just use the pad with it from now on, the pad just worked straight away with no faffing about for me.

The only thing im not liking in this so far is the awful FFB. Even using the settings suggested by them on the steam forums im getting awful clipping and coming from Assetto Corsa its like night and day. I just had to turn it off lol.

Betta lines 'First Look' shows the FFB in comparison to RBR and its getting looked at according to the devs :)

It's sometimes easy to forget it's early access I think as it feels so complete and polished already. Ive left off using my wheel for the time being until these bits are ironed out.

tbh have never really got on that well with wheels and rally games anyway, just dont seem to be able to get the inputs in quick enough against FFB.

when i go in game,i see ocuk. i click on it it does nothing :(

dont know why unless im doing something stupid. it says im in the league :p

If you've already raced in it & quit out without finishing a stage, etc... it won't let you in again

You can do a stage & save. Come back later do another stage & then save. Or do them all at once.

Once you've started a stage though, you need to finish it afaik.

If you quit out then you won't get back in. So do practice runs in custom mode.

Snipergecko will need to answer that properly though as he set this one up :)

It randomly saves my wheel settings, which is annoying to say the least.

Just finished my run at this event.
Was going well until I got stuck at Wales on a ridge, so had to recover.
Then hit caused some roadkill I think on the next stage at Wales, which lost me time again.

And Monaco was a riot as my wheel decided it would become hyper responsive between 10-2.
Anyone else had this? Or is it just the surface on those tracks?

I've driven the snow tracks a few times in career & don't remember them being that sensitive.

meh 5th place
shame you cant see everyones stage times on the score board.
It's just the stage+previous stage times on the website when you try to filter

Just got this and loving it. Everything on ultra and plays really well , using an xbox pad and not having any problems at all.

As many have mentioned - this already feels like a full release !
