In bad conditions on the loose, braking with FWD is tough. The brakes have a panic attack if the pedal is more than 30% depressed. I try to fix this by not only (most importantly) change my driving, but reduce the front pressure and lower the rear pressure. This causes understeer which requires me to slow down more with requires more braking. The moral of my boring rant is that improving one's driving is the best solution to overcome driving challenges. Last round of the season, here we go!
SS1: Not good, didn't get my mind into it yet.
SS2: It would've been a good time if I hadn't overshot a junction.
SS3: It didn't look damp to me but the tires made it seem that way. I didn't find it that bad though, just a poor driving error from me.
SS4: Another "what if?" stage; two errors.
SS5: This went pretty well. Grip was better than expected.
SS6: Better run, but something bad happened at the end. It didn't ask to save the replay, so all hope of a 4th consecutive victory was lost. I then vowed to just set lots of good times because I can.
SS7: Never done this stage in bad condition before. Normally this is a very slippery stage. Way better than expected. I could stamp on the brakes, lock up my wheels, and continue pointing straight.
SS8: Mistakes, not good time.
SS9: Tough stage, bump bottomed out my car, half spin, my fault for sure.
SS10: Better, but some poor driving.
SS11: Much better. In the zone now of all times
SS12: Better, but not good
SS13: Good time I think
SS14: Last stage of the season, gotta win it! I always get wild at the last corner. I've made it a tradition to handbrake it back into line after I finish the stage!
This might be my worst RDRC rally yet, and since I didn't get the replay of that one, short stage, my results don't count no matter what so unless Ole competes and Sion at least start the event, he will be the champ. At least my car's in one piece.
I had fun racing, good luck all!
