Is there a site on tips on rally driving (for example in Frally Champ 2000 ?) DOK
Well for the rally "sims" out now, the fastest way to drive is like a road racer, but any rally fan knows that the fastest way to drive in a rally car is to steer the car with the gas and brake, the fastest way to slow down is sideways, and you always want to point the nose right into the apex of the corner. Oh, and pendulum turns are always good.

IIRC it has been mentioned that the fast GPL guys drive their virtual 1967 GP cars like a modern day rally driver. As no rally sim has physics to match GPL (though CMR is very enjoyable IMO) I would suspect GPL is the closest you will get to driving a rally car for the time being.

Yep, I play GPL. In fact I just took the lead in the league I'm in with my 2nd win in a row. :) (I'm in IGPLC, -9 GPLRank) It's similar to rallying, but with GPL it's a bit faster to be perfectly neutral rather than slightly oversteering like a rally car. Thanks, Alex BTW, CMR2, RM, and RC2K are all very fun Chris Bloom <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:91jel8$hsh$[email hidden]...
