Yepzor, lifting the throttle while airborne seemed to do the trick. I just survived my first 7 lap single player rallycross and finished 2nd (even though some AI bastard knocked me around at the beginning of the race) Woo, such a joy of success.

Though I have to confess, I don't know anything about racing, especially about tuning cars! So I'll be reading some threads about that.

Quote from Sobis :

Faultygerabox I don't think it's faulty gearbox (). I think it's clutch overheating.

v01i0 - everytime you shift up, release your throttle for a moment (the moment you are shifting), also you shouldn't keep pressing the throttle while in air if you aren't going for a hot-lap.

Thank you. Okay, I'll try that one. I use manual gearbox (I guess, I mean I have to press gear down or up -button every time I wish to gear up or down), and I didn't realease the throttle so it might be that.

And thanks for everyone else for their tips as well! A tip of a hat.

Hello,

I am beginner with this game, and have only been playing the demo so far (considering to register it though).

I've been trying the rally cross mode on the blackwoods track, but I seems my car breaks down most times before finish line.

It puzzles me because I don't collide with anything, and I think that I drive quite carefully except some slides and little jumps that happens here and there during the track.

However, so far I've always broken my gearbox or get right / left rear damage. Can anyone give any tips how to keep the car intact in the racing mode?

Meanwhile I keep trying Thanks for all the possible tips.
