Pikes Peak - Dirt Rally

Picked up a cheap code for Dirt Rally on XBone. 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 Panamericana DLC for one of these games.
