And UK done by me as well

1st stage: spin with reverse needed
2nd stage: allmost clean, with small misjudgements by going wide on some corners
3rd stage: spin on a high speed straight (super lucky one), small crash into the fence posts
4th stage: careful driving, clean run
5th stage: clean run but cutting a corner cost me +12 sec penalty :(
6th stage: clean run with small roll which cost me about 3 sec only

Managed to get in a run as well before I went on holiday, had a few spins, and at least one reverse needed, but I seemed to be doing ok, still holding second place I see :D

Stupid mistakes leading to penalties in the third and the last stage. Otherwise Wales went pretty well for me. Most stages I was only a few secs slower than Xpander, and 10 secs faster in the stage he got the 12 sec penalty. I think I've pretty much hit my limit in this game, at least with a gamepad.

time to buy a wheel :) UK has never been my strongest, i am driving too slow there, but then again if i go faster its so easy to make a mistake cause there are lots of bumps that will want to flip your car or throw it to the ditch. My setup doesnt help either, i make damps firm, which makes it even worse for the bumps but at the same time gives me more corner speed without rolling over if there are no bumps.

Quoting: Xpandertime to buy a wheel :)
Would be awesome, but sadly way out of my gaming budget.

Aw yeah, now we're talking! Lancia Stratos only for extra salt. And I mean it, I'm down for some hilarious rear wheel drive action.

1970s cars sounds fun. Please add the ability to save after every stage again.

Would be good and interesting to see how many times I am able to spin after making a corner or in it.

I'm up for anything. For my own sake, having a bit more time on each stage would be nice, days have a tendency to run past once summer ends.

I agree with the more time. I'd like to be able to choose where in the week to do the run. I missed at least one because the it fell into an inconvenient window.
Xpander 25 Jul 2017
what about 1 event for the entire week (6 events - 6 weeks)? just making it a bit longer and with checkpoints after every stage so people can plan their time better?

good idea, I support this format like the weekly events in career mode.

How about a weekly event with 12 short stages in two different locations, like two of the previous season's events combined? With checkpoints after every stage.

also a good idea, however, DNF will mean you cant drive maybe your favourite location :) and also repairs will be for the 12 events then, lets say you will F your car totally on 6th stage and your next country you have damaged car.

i was thinking maybe 8 short stages or 5 short and 1 long for whole week on single country.

These are very good points, and I did consider the DNF problem. Personally I'd be happiest with the current events simply getting extended by a day or so if they're too short. But I'm fine with pretty much anything you guys decide on.
