I had to be pushed through the power stage... considering that no matter how hard I crashed into somethingI wouldn't wreck so, I didn't expect my engine to quit after deciding to not repair it for the power stage....
I won't make the same mistake in Greece, you all will be begging me to slow down, as I, ELMARCTUFF, the prince of all minis will destroy you all... *maniacal laughter*

Exactly what @ELmarcotuff said. It's the same system the real WRC uses.

So no matter if it's 5 or 15 km it's the last one? I don't know much about rally (or any other motorsport). I just like to race and drive

Greece rally is here! And over for me! 
After a lot of bad rallies with DNF's I finally finished one! My times are not the best and with 3 penalties on S2 I got tired but carried on to S4 with hope, and my neighbour started cutting their lawn and distracted me anyway.. I finished the rally. Not in one piece but I'm still happy I finished and hopefully getting my first point (s) of the season. I'm uploading S3 and S6 👍

So, I'll admit it...I got distracted all week by a copy of Black Flag for $8 on the PS4. Played this to completion on the PS3 eons ago...yet I sucked into it again like I'd never seen it before. It's fun to be a pirate!!
Finland could've been SOOOO much better. SS2 - the first running of Kailajarvi...there's a spot right after a bunch of piled logs, in 6th gear you hit a jump and come up to a blind right 4 over crest. This is flat out...if you turn early enough...which I didn't. Got a 9.5 on the triple front flip...but luckily didn't total my car. Lost about 17 seconds. Then, on SS4...the long one...everything was going great until the last sector. Two offs, which cost me a total of 11 seconds. Then, on SS6 on the second to last sector I hit what I think was a telephone pole at 180 KMS/hr. Again, I'm shocked I didn't total my car. For the PS, after the first sector my navigator kept telling me I was losing power...which meant 7 seconds off the pace.
I'm happy with the result, mind you. On to Greece. Yikes...

Rally Finland, Official Report- JDM_V0RT3X7373:
"Great result today. Finland is not my stronest rally, and after a poor result in Monte I was hoping to do better here and not make mistakes. Luckily, I was able to do that and bring home a solid third. I was almost a minute behind, but that has no significance in terms of points, so I will take my third place gladly.
Onto Greece now, a rally that I didn't finish last season, so I will try to aim for a decent error free result there as well, before the second half of the season where I can definitely challenge for the win."

Hey guys! Looks like a really cool thing you have going on here and I hope you don't mind if I jump in on the fun. I'm not very experienced in rally and don't expect to be very competitive as my main goal is usually just to finish. Some of your times are amazing
. I'm just happy to find another reason to play. Cheers

Just started in Greece. Did ok for the first two but then I got tired and lost concentration on third and fourth. I think I'm heading to bed and drive the last two in the morning.
I always forget to push the replay button when it appears so I lost 3/4 stages I drove. Got one on the video though. I need to find out how to upload it.
And welcome Filipino!

I only rolled once this time around!
Seriously though, Greece went a lot better then I was expecting. I only had a few spins/missed turns and the only major crash was the aforementioned rollover on the 1st stage. Not too much damage this time and no punctures

Are there any Difference between the 2010 cars? Drove my fully upgraded Fiesta at a stage yesterday while trying to tune, then tried a borrowed Polo and drove a second faster (must've been @Eyeseeh50 's car i borrowed ). That got me curious so I went back to try the MINI to see how it was compared to the other two. When I crossed the line I was only 0.2 slower than the Polo! Needless to say I got frustrated after tuning my Fiesta to go 1.5 seconds faster then become the slowest car I've driven that stage in 20 minutes. I went back and did some more tuning and clocked in 0.7 seconds faster than the borrowed Polo and quit. I need to try some more and get faster 👍

With my little experience they are all pretty competitive with each other. I found out that Hyundai is easiest to drive but somewhat lacks power. I have not tested cars as you did but Fiesta feels best matching my drive style. Lately I have tried to learn tricks with Polo and step by step getting better with it.Are there any Difference between the 2010 cars?

Mini for me feels the most clumsy of all cars. Maybe because it at least looks like highest car of them all, so center of gravity is highest. I like my cars to turn in fast and never found setup to match my needs with Mini so far.
