RDRC S9 Round 2 - Rally Sweden (15th February - 21st February 2021)

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

Monte Carlo hasn't even become a distant memory, and we are already moving on to the next round, to the snowy forests in Värmland, Sweden. Tyre choices will be much easier here than in Monte Carlo as there is only one option. The rally will cover 123.78km spread over 12 stages. Making it a long rally that will test the drivers concentration.

Rally Monte Carlo saw 270 drivers attempt to conquer the famous rally, with some failing, but many succeeding in their attempt. To read more about what happened in Monte Carlo, or maybe take a look at some of our RDRC-veterans who have been with us since the very first season back in 2010, head into the Rally Magazine to read up on this and more!

And with all this information, the thread for Rally Sweden is... open. A bit over a day until the rally starts, and it's time for the drivers and crews to start preparing for the snow!

On behalf of the whole RDRC-Crew, I wish everyone a great time in the snow. While it is a novelty, you will lose time if you stop to make a snowman! Regardless, remember to have lots of fun!

As with Monte Carlo - and everything that went into prep even before that - thank you very much to everybody involved for setting this up - and thank you very much for putting out these magazines. These things make this feel like a real championship as compared to just some random events taped together by the forum. Especially during these times where the real world is just a tad too crazy, I love being able to "escape" myself from that and step into a different world, this world. Thanks guys.

Haha. Honestly not sure if that's me nailing it, or Daniel proofing it But I honestly find myself doubting myself even when I write "Lindberg", maybe I remembered it wrong - again!

Looking forward to sweeden. I'm hoping it's softer than the hard surfaces of monte carlo.

What a gifted writer you are Ole! Thank you for this amazing magazine!

 

[Norman Bruce]

Another fantastic and professionally produced magazine, well done all involved.
Sweden, the goal for me here would be to post a finishing time and not a DNF ( my own stupid mistake )

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

brilliant magazine, thx for the positive feedback on us old and slow but reliable chaps will try to stay on the track again at Sweden. Two of the long stages as pracci tonight will have to be enough.

 

[Joakim Skalstad]

I'm ready

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

pracci done. find it hard to concentrate on the co-driver calling shots even though it's even more important here, where everything looks pretty much the same.
cannot get over how well codemasters has done the snowbanks. i remember when they first came out in this version in Dirt Rally after some weeks, we were all amazed, first snowbanks in any game i have played that feel sort of real.

 

[alex2106]

Lets go guys! I'll be driving the whole rally and livestreaming it together with @Michael Springer and maybe @Camaro735 starting at ~ 7pm CET. See you on stage, keep it between the snowbanks!

Edit: Stream is scheduled for 7:05pm CET here, feel free to join in:

My two years of German in school is really put to the test now!

 

[Michael Springer]

Finished the rally, not quite happy with the result, at least no punctures ever but the roof has been dented and scratched. Feeling slow.

Thanks for watching a bit Ole, was nice to see your name pop up, although the pressure somehow was upped by the events admin coming in to see what the participants do

Also finished, so-so happy with the results. First half of the Rally went really good, however, later on I struggled a bit to keep it on track.
