Fair enough.  Thanks for correcting me, guys, I'm humbled! :)

In Australia, we are usually removing sh***y (bracken ferns and gum
leaves, mostly) from the mirrors and door handles after a rally stage.  :(

Hi Charlie, (and all the others)

Going off the road to grass won't always turn your speed down, but it's sure
very slippery... :)
There's also few other surfaces/platforms next to road as water, ditch, mud
etc.. I'm sure these will slow you down a big time... ;)

I failed to notice in any of the screenshots any adverse weather.  Will
there be rain and snow?

In an earlier screenshot there was a gorgeous in-car shot running down
a long mountain slope in the snow.  Didn't see any falling, just on all
the trees and the ground, completely covered.

There is different weather conditions in the game.

I don't remember if the press preview (pre-alpha) included stages w/
different weather or not.
