On the iOpener website there is a very interesting article about an upcoming World Rally Championship simulator:

World Rally Championship's next game: Racing live against rally heroes

The next generation WRC computer game will allow players to 'compete' in live rallies", states ISC chairman Neil Duncanson in the April version of SportBusiness International magazine. ISC, the global promoter of the World Rally Championship (WRC), mentions WRC's ultimate goal as building up an online gaming world championship alongside the real thing.
ISC and the computer gaming industry believe the next step in gaming is this 'live' competition between gamers and real drivers, made possible through iOpener's patented technology.
ISC CEO Simon Long says: "Now we are a global promoter, we want this to be multi-platform, multi-publisher, multi-territory."
For Long and Duncanson the new game is part of WRC's broader efforts to appeal new fans beyond the hardcore enthusiastics. FIA's chairman Max Mosley has said the virtual champion will be honoured at the WRC's annual end-of-season awards ceremony in Monaco.

Last April we already brought you the first news about iOpener Media's beta testers recruitment for their Real Time Racing project.

The news about this technology where virtual racers can compete against the real drivers on the track in real time is now spreading amoung the simracing communities.

iOpener is still looking for the worlds best simracers to join their beta test program that's about to start soon. If you are interested in joining then you can sign up on the RTR website

Do you think its possible to combine this Mod with the EC Sim Hardware Avdanced Physics (APE V.05)? Would be great having both mods working together! Thank you very much!
Thanks for comment, Amiken.
Fortunately, ToCA Edit Racer_S seems to be working on WRC 3 Tool (maybe including Camera Control).
Please read his comment (2nd post) here

With this tool, we'll be able to edit Camera Positions quite easily and freely.
So, I'd like to wait and see.
Thank you :)
 
I wish Rally was more popular in the U.S.A. and Canada.

I want to pay full price for this game and not be forced to obtain by illegal means, which, I will never even try.

This is the age of the Internet, the publishers should be able to sell this game on their official site like Game Stock Car or rFactor.
 
37 minutes long, i'd definitely say that's thorough! :thumbsup: aaahhh i've been really keen to pick this up for a while but i just don't have the time to play it! still got LA Noire sitting on my shelf i haven't even started yet, and F1 2012 is keeping me super busy too.
