I have to admit that I haven't driven a lot on wet gravel in real life, is it really as hard as it is in RBR? At the end of Japan when it dries out it seems a lot easier to stay on the track. Are the Wet Gravel tyres being modelled cprrectly? Andi. -- Remove only one zero to reply
Its worse. I've done a lot of rallying in the wet, and also motokhanas - these are tight circuit on grass. Rallying on slippery clay surfaces or mud can be incredibly difficult. There is almost no traction at all. With any sort of downhill slope, you can actually accellerate with your car fully locked up. You have to steer the car about a corner ahead of where you want to turn in. Tim "Andi Cole" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:414ca6cf$0$42226$[email hidden]...

depends a lot on the surface... if it goes to mud or clay, then it'd be ridiculously hard, based only on my experience of dirt bike knobbies on these surfaces... Charlie
