VERY pleased with how that went tonight! :banana:
After a couple of frustrating rallies lately, I decided to take it a touch easier tonight and it seemed to pay off on this rather tricky set of stages. RSCenter seemed to kick me from the session before I could see the final results, but I think I ended up 4th or 5th overall in the EU session. If I can hang on for a Top 10 overall, I'll be thrilled!
SS1 - Clean, but didn't realise until later that the WRC version has 6 gears lol.
SS2 - Cautious, but clean. Strange stall at halfway cost me some time - engine died but didn't show as a stall.
SS3 - Probably my untidiest stage of the evening, but came close to sliding off a bridge. Happily avoided upsetting the family in that house this time.
SS4 - Fairly clean with just a minor hit on a bank, but no damage caused.
SS5 - Clean apart from 2 minor spins, 4th in EU session.
SS6 - In a strong position so I took absolutely no risks here. Unspectacular, but clean.
SS7 - Ok, nothing special to report
SS8 - Yet another clean one and managed to avoid the tree I've always hit in practice.
