And when you see the types of roads that make up the 36 stages of the Mobil 1 British Rally Championship - imagine the back roads you'd expect a Tennessee moonshiner to use in trying get his weekly load to Knoxville, then add rain, snow, and ice - you'll get a real appreciation for just how much damage your car is liable to take.
But these stations aren't like pit stops in a Formula 1 or NASCAR race, where a pit crew's sheer speed can give the driver an advantage instead, each car is allotted the same amount of time to fix everything that's been damaged over the previous stage or two.Īs such, strategy plays a pivotal role: You may have four, five, or more items in need of repair but only enough time allotted to work on only two or three, so your decisions at a service area can have a drastic effect on whether you'll finish the next stage, not to mention the rest of the race. A single rally consists of a course divided into several stages, some of which have service areas where damage that a car's taken can be repaired. In real-life British rallying, each rally championship (of which there are several in addition to the one simulated in Mobil 1) comprises a series of individual rallies. Once you become accustomed to some of the game's quirky control issues, you'll find yourself drawn to it time and time again. Rally racing is quite possibly the most complete test of driving skills ever devised - and Mobil 1 Rally Championship puts you as close to the action as you could ever hope to get. Mobil 1 Rally Championship is minimalist, simple, and brutally challenging. Feeling pretty proud of your racing-sim expertise? Well don't get cocky just yet, because Mobil 1 Rally Championship takes all the skills you've mastered for those games and tosses a bunch of them right out the window.
You've even found time to master the bump-and-grind action of touring-car racing in TOCA 2.
