TRIVIA

Released in April 2008.

Actually, the stages in German forests are closer to Finnish gravels, Mexican deserts are more like Argentinian deserts.

The cars don't differ in terms of any specifications.

The game features 2 types of scoring: table, race and post-race. The table scoring is represented by championship standings (scores are awarded after 4 rounds), race scoring involves taking Miniclip icons, where post-race score is a bonus for position after crossing the finish line and car condition bonus (wrongly referred to as damage).

The speedometer shows 10 km/h even when the car is stopped; moreover the speed measurement begins at this speed. The speedometer has numbered labels every 30 km/h and 1 line between them, apparently showing 15 km/h.

SCORING
Miniclip icon 200; 500 or 1000 points (always random)

Damage bonus (car condition) 100 points per 1%
Table scoring position 1 10 points
Table scoring position 2 8 points
Table scoring position 3 6 points
Table scoring position 4 5 points
TIPS AND TRICKS

* Keep an eye on the stopwatch and whenever you see it, take it! You'll not be likely to finish 1st when you forget to do so.
* Use the handbrake before sharp turns: handbrake is reported to be the rally driver's best friend.
* Don't change views before the countdown says "GO!": when you keep the hood view during the whole countdown, you'll have a broken 3rd person view showing the rear quarter.
* Pick all the wrenches up: when you hit any obstacle, you'll damage the car. When the car is heavily damaged, you'll not be able to accelerate as fast as you'd have an undamaged car.
* The co-pilot has no voice, instead the pace-notes are represented by 3 beeps: the low frequency is for u-turns (degree 1), middle - for a bit easier turns (degree 2: sharp), where the high frequency beep is for easy turns (degree 3). You have to look just below the progress bar as the beeps are all the same, no matter whether the turn is left or right. The notes appear for only half a second.
* Finish 1st for maximum score (both post-race bonus and table standing).
* Don't drive too fast: even if the speedometer shows maximum speed of 250 km/h, don't try to reach that speed. None of 12 stages allow to do so. You'll be able to reach maximum 190 km/h.
