well, when I crashed I was lucky to have
the rollcage etc. The co-driver was cowering
, most of the time actually. The only thing
he was shouting was 'please stop please stop'

if you look you can see the top of his
helmet most of the time.

btw... I still have the car and am open
to offers for the parts..you might need
a body shop for some of the panels tho.

if I where to use a simulator, which of
course I don't I would probably go for
something like...

Pentium III 500 or quicker
256Mb Ram
GeForce GTS II Ultra 32Mb
Soundblaster live
logitech force-feedback steering wheel
and pedals


thats my pc, not that it is ever used
for games of course...

Mattski,

Good shots!! Hope you weren't too badly hurt in the accident!!

I have Rally Championship and was wondering if you had a cheat to get the WRC...of course this would only apply if you have the game as well

I look forward to hearing from you.

Ta ta 4 now

I was ok after the crash, luckily
some spectators come and turned us over.
What you don't see on the photo's is that
we ended upside down in a deep ditch.

If I had the game I probably would cheat
because I suspect that I would only manage
to get about 4 stages in before recking
something like a peugeot... but that is
fantasy of course, I would need the game
to know that ;o)

Hmmm,

An overactive imagination at work here. These look suspiciously like screen shots from CM2 or Rally Championship.

Still, if you turn the lights off and have a force feedback wheel you could almost be there. Isn't that true Blubs and Geezer???

Once you admit you have a problem, you can get help.

Geezer

BTW here is a picture of me having a moment in my 306 Maxi the other night (honest)

It's time to put on make up........and so on.

In the picture of 'you' crashing, where is the Co-driver?

And what a coincidence, the Co-driver does not appear in CMR1/2 or Mobil 1 Rally.

Snake.

If you were to have a Rally sim such as Mobil 1 you could enter the name 'turbochallenge' as driver number 4. This might open the better cars for you.................allegedly.

If however you were to have a PSX and had Colin McRae II you could enter a driver name of 'onecarefulowner' for a further vehicle selection.

Max,

Do you really have to openly discuss our forcible feeding of things with the lights off, on this board?

blubs

ps don't forget, if Geezer replies you may have to scroll down to the very bottom of the page to read it.

down?

I've got an unfair advantage tho, my WRC
is a real one, yours is a computer one ;o)
