You can find details on the SimRS website (http://www.simrs.com) and read the "Guide to Stage Rallying on LFS" here. Feel free to contact me as well if you wish!
I'm working on designing stage layouts for SimRS and the object-hitting penalties are not necessary. I was wondering if there was any way to disable them in the layout options or server options?
Agreed. GPL did an excellent job at giving you a good sense of the insane speeds you were doing. It probably helped that you knew that at those speeds the car was driving on a knife's edge, and a twitch either way would send you flying off the sides.
For those interested in seeing what stage rallying is like, the SimRS server is currently set at our SO5 (South City Town Course) rally stage! Just log in, join the server and run a lap to see how it all works.
