Round 6 - CANCELLED and DELAYED

Hello, the current round of Sim Rally Masters has been cancelled. This is related to some issues that occured with the the last huge RSF update. The RSF wizards already fixed the issues but since the update released as the round was running, we need to cancel it and push it back. The next date is in discussion but it will be the next Wednesday, as soon as we know and feel it's safe to start this endeavour. Meanwhile you can drive the rally if you want. We will also make sure that no one will have an advantage when we restart the rally but we will not add any more stages. Thanky you and keep driving all those other rallies for now!

Get ready, the roadtrip through the land of beer and chocolate is about to start! Throughout the following 2 weeks, I'll be posting tidbits of info regarding the regions you'll be traversing, the rallies the stages are from as well as my own personal experiences with several of them. All in an effort to bring the rally more to life! Enjoy! https://www.rallysimfans.hu/rbr/rally_online.php?centerbox=rally_list_details.php&rally_id=73848 !!!   ATTENTION: SS15 is the normal version NOT reverse   !!!

Time for some action in Japan. This time we split up round three into three seperate rallies. One on tarmac with lots of sun, the other a mudfest and the third takes us to the snowy regions. Each rally will count as a full rally but the caveat is that there is no superrally rule. So, if you crash out, that's it. No points for that rally. Every rally is also just one leg, so if you start it, you need to finish it. You can tackle each rally in any order you like and now let's do some rallying in the land of the rising sun. >>> Round 3/I - Tamakku <<<   >>> Round 3/II -  Guraberu <<<   >>> Round 3/III - Suno <<<            

Round 2 - Sanremo Results

a bit of delay, a bit of gravel, a bit of tarmac and a whole lot of hairpins. A shorter SRM rally in terms of lengths but not lacking in challenging stages.

Roadbook Round 2 - Sanremo

Image
So the wine in Tuscany is was so good the organisers dozed off and almost forgot there was a rally to attend to. How would you react yourself if you were forced on a 2 month break in Italy? For those traveling between stage 11 and stage 12, take a pitstop in San Gimignano. Specifically at Gelateria Dondoli to enjoy some quality ice cream (or gelato if we don't want to offend the Italians again). From experience I can say it's the best gelato I've ever had. The nice little village around the shop was a nice plus. Anyway, this little tangent literally served no purpose but to distract from what you're all here for: the Rallye Sanremo roadbook! >>> LINK TO RALLY <<< >>> GOOGLE SHEETS VERSION <<<      

Changes in the calendar

We have received clearance from local authorities in San Remo to start the rally, but only after we assured them we wouldn't involve pineapples with any other food from their local cuisine. That being said, we'd like to give an update on the schedule for San Remo and the other rallies this season. San Remo will be delayed until the Three Samurais' original date. Three Samurais will be postponed to the original Rally Saturnus date and so on for the other rallies. For London-Mexico this means we'll have a new date in 2025. The exact dates can be found in the updated ⁠calendar . You can find the stages for Sanremo here. We decided to postpone all rallies because we want to allow other championships on RSF to hold their postponed rallies, so there at least isn't one big rally from SRM overlapping with those rallies. We hope this will reduce the load on the schedule for drivers that participate in multiple championships. Further questions can be asked in ⁠#srm-discussion

Sanremo postponed

Hello! As those of you on our Discord server will have undoubtedly noticed, we have decided to postpone Sanremo Rally until further notice. While lore-friendly explanations involving pineapples are all fun and dandy, the real reason is something further outside our control. Since the latest RSF update, a severe bug was discovered. Known as "timing bug", it alters the speed in which the simulation runs vs. actual clock. While RSF team is working on an update, the timetable is up in the air. Rest assured, the entire team is doing their best to resolve the situation as soon as possible. In the meantime, we had no real alternative but to delay the event. We know a lot of you have looked forward to the rally, and some of you have planned your intensive real-life schedules in order to participate in this event. For that we can only apologise. However, the nature of the bug is one which severely affects anyone who happens to fall victim to it, and while the possibility of a technica

Stage list Round 2 - Sanremo

Hey everyone! Puhis had the roadbook duties for our opening round and I've got the honor for this upcoming rally that happens to be one of my favorites, the Sanremo Rally. Unlike Puhis, I've managed to control my sadistic side when making the rally roadbook. I used the 1995 Rally Sanremo loosely as base for the event, therefore this is one of the shortest (and most likely one of the most pleasant) SRM events to date. I think we're all more than happy for an easier recce duty this time. Enjoy!

Pep's Livery Sheet Posters

Image
A message from Pep from the SRM community, who created something amazing: Hi, it's Pep! I'm not great at announcements. Joining SRM'23 was... a really unique experience. I didn't do well, sure, but I've enjoyed every bit of being around.  The best part of SRM for me was the experience itself; the atmosphere of it all, and the memories it gave me. I wanted to hang on those memories and share them, and I wanted to give back to this amazing community. So this is my gift back to SRM, the great people that organized it and made it real, and the contestants that made the experience extra real. <3 Something commemorative, so everyone can have a keepsake of their time here .  You can find more of that on the SRM Discord  and support her work on Ko-fi!  

Luppis' Pacenote Pack and compatible Co-Drivers

Image
Since SRM features long rallies over a lot of different stages, it might be tough for most of you to actually properly recce all of them. Thanks to Luppis you can get away with less preparation. He made pacenotes for the majority of stages that are available in RSF and most stages that are used in SRM Round 1. Note that there are two versions available. See below which co-drivers work with his pack and what version they require. Compatible Co-Drivers are  Janne Laahanen for Luppis V3 Nicky Grist for Luppis V3 Darren for Luppis V2 Janne Laahanen  for Luppis V3 Hans Juchard (KI Stimme) für  Luppis V2 Marco Piardi vor Luppis V2 There are more co-drivers available. But these are the ones where we know that they work with Luppi's Pacenote Pack. If you know more, please leave a comment underneath this post or on our Discord.
