its a fun game :D

not rally game tho :p

anyways, i was playing a 8-lap Morocco landrush in pajero, at last lap, just before the start line i pulled the handbrake to finish backwards :p

i won, the "1st place" screen was shown but it just stuck there.

AI took control over my car & i think it got stuck somewhere :D

for other AI's the race didnt end :p , they just kept goin on, i waited till they lapped two times :D

It's fun for about 3 hours or so before you realize that you've already raced every single variation of every track in the game at that point.

oh man, this game gets retarded in Hardcore difficulty mode :rofl:

Event: Ken Block Throwdown

Venue: battersea

Time to beat : 52.25

Difficulty: Hardcore

tried with evo x, but always fell 2seconds short, then with Impreza STi, closed down to 52.56, couldnt better it.

finally won the event with a MG Metro. :/

the trick here was, DONT SLIDE at any cost.

only the MG has the BEST traction, R4 is also good. shortass wheelbase :p

its bloody difficult to NOT slide in evox & sti, at any turn, the slightest throttle makes the car powerslide. :argh: :angry:

rewards are cool tho, in 'serious' difficulty, i think only 11000XP is offered, while in hardcore its 25,000 :D

video:

:D

[the game mechanics is such that it makes every corner a drift spot, you cant avoid sliding, yet at hardcore diff. it wants you to beat the game w/o sliding :p ]

are you guys playin dirt2 MP?
