    I love that the stage opens up with a section I recognise from Sweet Lamb that was accurately modeled in DIRT Rally 2.0. I also love the fact that the fastest car of the RAC was running a H-pattern manual. Bloody awesome.

    Magic! Great to see a manual gearbox and RWD. I don't care if newer things are quicker, this is the epitome of rallying. I remember dicking about on my mountainbike around Hafren in the eighties, on the fire road near the source of the Severn, and I came across a 7 series BMW. The driver asked me the way to Aberystwyth. There were two grannies in the back. I wonder if they ever got out.

    My first ever experience with rallying was a short stint in the navigators seat in a very fast Mitsubishi Lancer at night through the forests of NSW here in Australia and I was about Olivers age. I highly respect these guys flying along these roads at night as they have to have extremely sharp reflexes driving in the beam of those headlights at those speeds.
