I'm trying to find a good rally sim to start using to practice w/o risking damage to anymore cars and I was wanting to know how realistic is RBR?

RBR is easily the most realistic rally sim atm. its pretty good for understanding how to shift the weight of cars around, but i think the game doesn't simulate the effects of downforce that WRC cars have at high speeds very well :/ Unless you have a track perfectly memorized, you cant really push @ 100% all of the time. You gotta find a rhythm and pay close attention to pace notes for longer rally stages. the damage is pretty unforgiving too. I'm in the process of reinstalling RBR and the latest RSRBR atm 
Dirt 2 is very fun and you can use stuff like Scandinavian flicks to get around hairpins in that game. graphics are much better than RBR, but its not as realistic.

I don't know why, but after I install RBR, when playing after about 3-5 min. all objects dissapear

post your system specs. cpu, ram, graphics card, etc. make sure you have all latest drivers.

Well you have a copy of RBR. I would like to order one from you for my rally-superfan friend
Just kidding. Check yer com's specs by going to:
Start menu>all programs>accessories>system tools>System information.

This is Henning and Petter Solberg driving RBR and you can see that they handle it very well. I take that as a sign that it is pretty realistic, and Henning's time is quite fast to (try to make that time on your second attemt!!) They might have tried RBR before this video, but i doubt they have time to play games much.. RBR is my favorit rally sim and I think it feels very real although I am not the right man to jugde that.
I could not find the video, but I have heard Petter Solberg saying its VERY realistic..
. Anyone know how to easily watch replays after installing RSRBR? It automatically quits after i finish a stage...

Well I now know it's definetly my video card , and now you are hearing this coming from a amatuer rally driver this is the most realistic game. But if someone could, I'm an american rally driver, so I need some american stages, so could someone make the 100 Acre Wood, Sno*Drift, and Tim O'Niel Rally School.
I'm friends with Travis Pastrana, he also plays this (He reccommended it to me )
So can anyone do this?
How did he get numeric pacenotes?
K i found out where just msg me if you wanna know (I got 5 infaction points so I ain't risking doing anything else I didn't know wasn't allowed)
Hey has anyone tried to make a handbrake on RBR using a Logitech attack 3 joystick?

Would love to see some shots of you car, as that's quite a claim to make.
But not as big a claim as this one is.I'm friends with Travis Pastrana, he also plays this (He reccommended it to me
The AUP here does categorically state that any misleading posts are grounds for infractions.
How you would prove such a claim is beyond me, but then again I didn't make it.

Hey! Who made the previous post? That would make it a double post, no? Who has just been given a warning for making double posts? Who has been given an infraction for ignoring said warning and making more double posts?
On top of that, the post is off topic for this thread. Making a handbrake from a joystick has nothing to do with the realism of RBR. 💡

Yes realism can be only achieved by using Wheel, DFP, DFGT, G25, G27. Ive never seen anyone play RBR on PAD 
Backing on track RBR has more realism thanks to driving psychics that can be upload into the game. You can use so many of them! N group cars, WRC cars, Group B cars S2000 cars. Man this game will never get old!

But do you notice how most of the responses (except posts 2 & 3) are pretty much 24hrs apart to the minute?? While I don't agree with his multiple posting, it is within the realms to do such a thing because he's not doing all of those posts within a 10 minute period, but it would be better for him to edit 1/2 those posts and not look so silly.

Sure I send you some as soon as I find my camera
What do you want as proof?
Well cause adding a handbrake could increase the realism

Just so you know, and maybe if a regular user tells you this it might get met with less annoyance than if a mod does, but here in GTP we tend to take these affirmations and claims seriously. The usual method of proving it is by means of a picture. Claiming your camera is lost or doesn't work isn't going to count as a valid excuse.
The picture should be of the car/person you are claiming to have/know plus yourself and a piece of paper with your username written on it and a message like "Hi GTP!", though this last bit is optional.
Until such claims are proven, you'll be placed in the Ludicrous Claims Thread. Congrats if you are indeed a rally driver are friends with Travis Pastrana 👍

It doesn't have to be right away either. You usually have a 'til the end of the week' period.

RBR is realistic enough to be used by Super2000-class suspension mechanic to teach us how to detect bad suspension setup, flat tire or similar just by driving the car.

If I only was a mechanic.. I have big problems with tuning in RBR, as I understand the tuning in RBR is one of the more impressive/realistic things about RBR. Couple of years ago now, but I read a post from a rally mechanic on a forum and he said the tuning is very accuarate and true to life 👍 And no it was not a advert

Well when I'm using the RSRBR 2010 mod the car is to grippy on tarmac, does anyone have a reccomended setup for drifting on tarmac?
So has anyone found any user made physics updates that are any good?
Hey everyone, I need some help on RBR, whats a good setup on the subaru for american style rally racing (i.e. drifting on tarmac) please help, thanks
