Oh how I was struggling. Entering event after event with my tiny 1960 Mini Cooper trying to be first place but it would never happen. Always seeking the compromise between speed and not slipping off the edge, always thinking 'yes this was it' just to see that the other guy beat me by 7 seconds even.
Oh how satisfying it was when I got the handbrake drift around a hairpin corner figured out.
How relieved did I feel when reaching the end of the track after a night rally with cockpit only sight when my two dim headlights got cracked mid-track and I could barely figure out where the road was going.
And was I laughing when I finally figured out how to drive custom events against the community delta and I beat the time by 1 minute.

This game is all about mastering and not giving up. It runs very well on older hardware too like on a laptop with Intel graphics for example but I prefer to play it on my pc with my G27 wheel, which is a blast.

I can definitely recommend this difficult simulation even considered that I usually play games like Need For Speed or Wreckfest. By the way, the gravel drifting in Wreckfest, for me, was like a stepping stone into the no-grip world of Dirt Rally.
