Righteho, what a rally.
I thought I should choose the Skoda, considering I'm working with one currently.
I haven't done an RBR event in quite sometime, let alone ever used the octavia, so my efforts weren't up to scratch by a mile.
Anyway, here's how it played out.
SS1: Very slow in this stage as I haven't played RBR in weeks :O
Car is..interesting to drive, a few interesting qwerks.
SS2: First corner, hit something invisible in the middle of the road, and the engine died. Bizarre as I've never encountered that on this stage before. Kinda annoying but I'm not doing this rally to win it, just need to practice after spending time with that mistake of WRC3.
SS3: Still bumpy as hell, but thats why you gotta love Harwood I suppose
again took it slowly as it was quite slippy.
SS4: Fairly clean run, very slippy indeed. Crazy amounts of throttle control needed for this car in these conditions though.
SS5: Very cautious and slow, as I don't know Falstone II that well, let alone in the dark. very interesting physics still, almost comparable to the Delta S4, just with less power
Its quite fun actually.
SS6: The car handled brilliantly in this stage, until I misheard the 90 right Intersection.
SS7: Slowly through Harwood again, no mistakes though which was good.
SS8: Kept messing up the hairpins, which lots me loads of time, super bumpy with that car too.
Great choice of stages and conditions, made it incredibly interesting to drive with.
As always, I love these type of events because it makes you choose a car you maybe haven't driven before, and is great for variety.
Thank you to all who set it up, it was very enjoyable.
