The DiRT group

Cerbs holds hand up,

I’ve probably raced around that track 100 plus times already. Not sure if I’m gonna be able to beat my current PB time.

I also have to raise my hand to a little pre TT practice not that it will make the slightest bit of difference to the outcome.

midnight mushy. But not that thst matters much as you are in no1 spot any way
Also to note, all time trial times must be in the same car. Don’t think i mentioned that this time in OP but just for future reference.
I’ll get the table updated this eveningfor everyone to see.
Awesome times there though and thanks to all who participated.

I live in California so I imagine you must live in another time zone than I. I think that means my times have to be in by 6 p.m. rather than 12 pacific time.
I will make sure to run time trial in same car. thanks for the heads up

No problem, and i’ll confirm the time zones next time too.

Sorry, i too missed the stay in same car rule

Hi everybody, this is going to be my first post on MG forums. I joined so that I could compete in the Dirt 3 Time trials. I hope it is not too late to post times for this time trial.
Here are my times using the Ford Escort:
Mountain Drive – 2:54:338
Quincy Mine – 2:38:203
I am unsure of how long each time trial runs for, could anybody tell…[Read more]

hi mushy, nice to see you here.
Time trial runs until midnight on thursday 27th so you’re in plenty of time. Awesome times there.
Certainly giving joey a run.

Isn’t the 27th a Wednesday?

Hi Mushy, had already seen some of your fantastic times on the leaderboards, I hope you are happy to give tips so I can hopefully give you some competition in future time trials.

corrected
Wednesday 27th midnight.

Nice one Mushy…so the challenge is on…unfortunately i am not connected online so i have to stick to the Kadett…Can just someone tell me plz if there is much difference in BHP between Kadett and Escort? Im going to try push it harder tonite so hopefully i will be able to win this one

Congrats mushy for the WR at Quincy Mine – 70’ s. I suddenly feel very inadequate

Thank you eztspartan for the quick response/answer to my question.
Joey here is the BHP and wieght of all Down Loadable Content (DLC) vehicles in 70′s:
DLC- Ford Escort MK2, 245 BHP & 960 KG weight
DLC- Lancia Stratos, 290 BHP & 970 KG weight
Personally I am a big fan of the MK2, it is the car i drive most often out of the 70′s class.…[Read more]

Ok so had one last go…unfortunately i could beat you Mushy….Also thanx for the answer with the BHP…I am also a great fan of Mk2, but as i said previously i am not online yet. Planing to go within 2 or 3 weeks… But for now i guess you are the winner Mushy…
Here are my last times
Mountain drive: 2:55:827
Quincy mine: 2:39:792
So…[Read more]

DownLoadable*

Thanks Joey
You set some pretty fast times for not being able to go online. Once you are online, i’m sure your time will improve quite a bit. It helps out alot when you are able to watch a ghost car and see where you are losing speed at(at least for me it does)

Well to be honest im really interested where im loosing the time, because im pretty sure im using every inch of the road and even if i follow my best time, its just impossible to beat it….so im very very interesting…Maybe the next TT could be in the same car for everybody just to compare where and how the time can be gained? Looking forward to…[Read more]

Where can I get one of those fast ghost cars?

Not sure if you are serious or not but I will tell you how anyways. That winking face is throwing me off….lol.
First click on singleplayer and then choose Time Trial.
Once in Time Trial, you can choose the track you want to attack. After you have chosen your track it bring you to the next page where you are able to select a ghost car to…[Read more]

Thanks Mushy, funnily enough I wasn’t being serious, I just wanted a car as fast as the ghost car, I couldn’t keep up, so once the ghost car had gone all the lines I was taking were my own. I had noticed the empty slots but hadn’t even thought of loading slower ghost cars. Now I know I’ll be sure to load your ghost car, I’ll be your online…[Read more]

Mushy, I notice your WR for Quincy Mine got beaten,and you won it back again, awsome time. I really don’t get how you and Joey do it, I struggle to find tenths, you guys find seconds.

Lol, I told you chrisrep would want that WR back. He had taken it back the very same day.
I race with a Logitech g27 steering wheel
Joey probably has a wheel too(or is really good with a controller)
Playing with a wheel has improved my performance dramatically. I would not be able to come close to my time with a controller(for me atleast).…[Read more]
