Picked up a cheap code for Dirt Rally on XB one. Jumped right in and did a 12:13 at Pikes Peak in one of the old Audis (blistering, I know)...even with way too much FFB, poor wheel settings, and not having driven any rally sims before, I think this game is really good. Did a quick Monte Carlo rally as well (I’ll have to brush up on my rally jargon, no clue what the co-pilot is talking about) and I was pretty impressed at how much more the game leans toward sim than arcade. I’m also wishing I had found a cheap code for the PC version.....triple-screen would be really nice for the hairpins!
This really makes me wish Forza Horizon had similar dynamics. My dreams of a Targa Florio or Mille Miglia game will only intensify.
I’d be willing to shell out serious bucks for some kind of Carrera Panam ericana DLC for one of these games.
Time to fire up Assetto Corsa....

DiRT Rally is a goddamn gem and it’s ruined every other rally sim for me because of that.
The greek stages are the best. Incredibly imposing but extremely rewarding when you get them right.

Targa Florio? We were racing on it 7 years ago in rFactor.

Right...there’s one in AC as well which is why I mentioned it. I need to get back to some more PC racing, but some updated long-form tracks (even if on console) are what I’m talking about.
