So if I drive really slowly, I can at least beat tuubi! :D

Right, thanks for the feedback. For the next 2 weeks I shall make random events lasting 3 days and consisting of 6 stages each.
Or would it be a good idea to allow 2 days for each event? It would give us more events but only if everyone has the option to compete at least every other day or so...
Xpander 16 May 2017
I think 2 per week each with 6 stages is fine. I could be happy with more also, but there are other games and real life also. Maybe 1 fun extra event for every weekend would be nice

As long as the league is just a bit of fun, missing an event won't be a big problem. But I'm fine with two 6 stage events per week and the extra weekend event sounds good as well. Just make the weekend event something weird like hillclimb/rallycross or maybe just two short stages with some sort of a twist.

I think no more than 6 stages for any of it, don't want it to turn from being fun into a real slog to get through it :)

Ideally 2+ days for each, to enable as many as possible to finish it, 2 days isn't really long for people to wait for the results of each either :)

I approve less stages at the events, 6 stages per event would be ideal, also only one long stage in the events, since they take more time to make the runs and are prone to car wrecking.

Stupid snow stage, car ruined...looks like I wasn't the only one though going by the times.
Xpander 16 May 2017
Ok i retired on the 4th stage in monaco.. damn it :D
Ki 16 May 2017
I'm still 1st o_O

Guys please do something about that, the pressure is building :D

I made it through the first "season" but I really struggled. Before this league I haven't driven any of the 4WD cars and to my surprise it was much harder to control than any of the 2000 or 2010 rally cars :D (I wrecked my car badly in the first stage in Greece). I could defend myself and say that I have turned all the assists off and I'm using the Xbox 360 controller but Meneghedson was way faster than me and he's also using controller and has turned all the assists off!

Still, I was able to beat the other Finn tuubi ;)

Huh, this was some heavy driving :|

really safe driving, but still mistakes.

Audi Quattro was wrong choice also, it will have lots of understeer after bumps and jumps. Finland was really hard.. had to throttle down before jumps.

Fun fact, I went out with my Quattro on the same stage, same corner, same way as you did. (Monaco totalled crash)

You wouldn't have if I didn't wreck my car in the last stage. ;) I mean I was something like 5 minutes in front of Ki after the previous one.

You're in. Don't destroy your car in the first event and you're fine. ;)

21 of us in the league now btw.

Yeah I know... Your were way ahead of me before the crash so it's pretty safe bet you are going to be faster than me in the following events (as long as you don't crash again :D ).

So basically you chose the hardest stages in the worst conditions? Make one little mistake and it's over. I think "fun" should be a bit more forgiving so that the inexperienced can at least get a chance to set a time.
Xpander 17 May 2017
i think the stages where randomized so yeah :D smarter next time.

in the mean time, here's my 2007 Ford Paskuri 3:08 time that brought me to 31st in the world. but i already have improved it to 3:07 and 22nd in the world :D
