017 Colin McRae Rally 2.0 (2000) expert difficulty Australia stage 01

The setup of my car is almost the same for each rally (except for tires and suspension) just because I play this game with a keyboard. I set up my car this way: 1. Tires – according to the surface and weather, obviously. 2. Gearbox – unchanged. 3. Suspension – hard 5 (hardest) for tarmac and hard 2 for any other surface. 4. Power Ratio – front 2. 5. Brake Bias – front 3. 6. Brake Power – unchanged. 7. Steering (sensitivity) – low 4 (second slowest turning). Harder suspension is very important, especially on tarmac! Surfaces other than tarmac are very uneven, so the suspension can’t be too hard on them. Steering sensitivity is very low because at very high speeds the car would be very hard to control with a keyboard. Because the steering sensitivity is very low I have to make up for it in tight corners. I set the brake bias significantly to the front (3), so the back of the car swings when I’m breaking and turning at the same time. I don't use this method in every corner, but I do use it quite often. Everything depends on the combination of my current speed and the sharpness of a corner. Sometimes I use the breaks only for a split of a second just to “activate” the swing and sometimes I use the breaks longer and/or more than once. I set the power ratio moderately to the front (2), so when I accelerate right after releasing the breaks the front of the car is “faster” than the back of the car, which makes the car more controllable during drifting. I recorded the gameplay movie using the Polish version of the game. The voice of the pilot is actually the voice of Krzysztof Hołowczyc – one of the best Polish rally drivers at that time.
