Prodrive and the Ford Rallye Sport Teams, he now drives for
Citroën Sport.
Throughout his driving life, Colin has clocked up an incredible
25 World Rally Championship wins and with his all-out attacking
style, the “Flying Scotsman” is yet again dominating the
world arena.
When Colin is on a rally stage, people want to watch.
That says it all.

Split Countdown:
Split time readings are taken at various points throughout the
rally stage. As you approach each Split Time point, a
Countdown appears on-screen, to show how you are
performing in comparison to the fastest recorded time for that
section of the stage. If you cross the Split Time point while the
Countdown is still in the negative, you have beaten the fastest
time for that section.
If you are first out onto the stage, you will not receive Split
Countdowns, but instead will set the Split Time for following
drivers to beat.
Stage Progress:
Monitors your progression through the stage. Each split point
will turn red or green depending whether you are up or down
against the fastest car currently through the stage.

the rally
As World Champion rally driver Colin McRae, your career with the Ford Rallye Sport
Team consists of three Championships, each through six countries. In each country you
are scheduled for one day of testing (Shakedown), followed by the two-day rally event:
Shakedown Day
Shakedown is the day allocated for you to ensure your Ford Focus RS WRC is set up
in readiness for the coming rally. From the Service Area, configure, tweak and test
your car configuration and analyse the data on its performance – see [Optimising
your Car Setup] and [Telemetry].
This is also your chance to get the low-down on the rally stage/s you are about to
take on. Select “STAGE INFO” for details concerning your current challenge.
When you’ve made and tested all of your vehicular adjustments, select “START
RALLY” to proceed to Rally Day 1.
The Rally Event
Day One
On Rally Day 1, you will run three Special Stages back-to-back, driving for the fastest
time against the rest of the field. There will be no Service Areas to reconfigure your
car or repair damage, so if you are going to make it through all three stages, you will
need to make sure your car stays relatively intact.
Day Two
Rally Day 2 is an altogether more intense rally experience. Your day starts
at the Service Area (for configuration and repairs) followed by three Special Stages.
A further visit to the Service Area takes you onto the final Super Special Stage – the
climax of the country’s rally.
8
9
championship mode
optimising your car setup
It is important that your car is configured properly for the stage ahead, the weather
conditions and your driving style. Always make the most of your Shakedown Day –
see [The Rally] – to get your car perfectly tuned for the rally.
As you progress through the Championship, more advanced car components will
become available to enhance your performance. Install them through Car Setup.
In Car Configuration, select the type of component that you want to adjust, select the
specific component you want installed or adjustment you want to make.
When you have finished setting up the component, select “OK”.
Brakes
Pads – Smaller brake pads are less efficient at stopping the
wheels moving, but are not as liable to lock up. Larger pads will
quickly stop the wheels from moving but will lock up rapidly.
Balance – This adjusts the difference in brake power applied to
the front and rear brakes.
Gearbox
Ratio – Low gear ratios increase your acceleration but reduce
your overall top speed; high gear ratios will allow a greater top
speed but slower acceleration.
Transmission – Automatic transmission decides when gears
change, whereas manual transmission requires the player to
decide when to shift gear. Semi-Automatic transmission
changes gear when required but allows manual gear shift
as well.
9
10
championship mode
Tyres
Select the correct type of tyre for the terrain and surface
conditions of the upcoming stage. If unsuitable tyres are used,
your grip will not be as strong and greater tyre wear and
damage will occur.
Engine
Launch Control – Use Launch Control to reduce wheel spin off
the start line. To engage, the throttle must be held as the
countdown ticks away, then released when it reaches zero to
launch the car.
Don’t release the throttle before the countdown has reached
zero otherwise launch control will be disengaged.
Power Balance – This adjusts the difference in power that
is sent to the front and rear wheels.
Chassis
Strong chassis are more resilient to damage but their weight will
slow the acceleration of the car.
A lighter chassis will let the car accelerate more quickly
but can be damaged more easily.
Suspension
Springs – Soft springs reduce the impact of bumps and uneven
ground on the car by absorbing them better than hard springs.
The softer the springs fitted, the greater the car’s tendency to
pitch when cornering.
10
— —
11
championship mode
Dampers – Dampers reduce the vibration of the springs.
The quicker the damping, the faster the vibration is slowed.
Anti-roll – Anti-roll reduces the amount of pitch the car
experiences when cornering. The higher the anti-roll setting,
the lower the car is pulled down when cornering.
Steering
Fast steering makes the car respond to a smaller amount of
movement of the controls, slower steering requires a larger
amount of movement.
telemetry
The Telemetry screen allows you to compare the data
received from up to three test runs on Shakedown Day.
First set up your Car Configuration then take it through a
test run. Data from the test run will be fed back to the
Service Area for your later inspection.
When you have completed one or more setup tests, select “TELEMETRY” from the
Service Area Menu.
Next, choose which test run’s data you want to examine. The graph of the car’s
performance is displayed on screen. Scroll across the graph with ∏ and -.

Interpreting & Comparing the Data
On the graph, your car data is displayed as follows for each instance through
the stage:
Red line = Speed
Green line = Revs
13
championship mode
Blue line = Gear
To compare data when you have completed two or more test runs, click “MODE” to
flip to Compare Mode.
In Compare Mode, you can view the selected run’s data against one other selected
test run (when three test runs are complete). Select the test run you want to compare
your current data against under ‘“COMPARE WITH”.
You can also break down and compare the data by individual stream. Highlight
“COMPARE”, then choose “SPEED”, “REVS” or “GEARS”.
Finally, if your telemetry shows that one particular run (and therefore Car
Configuration) was more successful than any other, click “USE SETUP”
to install that configuration in your car for the rally.
damage & servicing
Damage to your vehicle is a natural hazard of rallying.
If the damage gets too bad, you may no longer be
able to complete the rally stage.
Damage can only be repaired at the Service Area,
which you visit periodically on Shakedown Day and
Rally Day 2 – see [The Rally]. If you wreck your car on
the first stage of a day’s rallying, you will have to make
it through the day’s remaining stages with a serious
handicap before you can get it repaired.
When you reach the Service Area, the Repair Crew will fix as much damage as
possible in the time allotted to them. If there is too much damage to your car for the
Crew to handle, you will have to go into the next stage with some repairs incomplete.
If your car has taken too much punishment to make it through the rest of the
rally, you may have to retire and hope you can score enough points in the next
country. While on the stage, hit ESCAPE to pause the action, then select
“RETIRE” from the Pause Menu.
The Spare Wheel
If, during the competition, you rip a wheel from your car or blow a tyre, the
spare wheel will be fitted at the end of the stage. However, you only carry one
spare wheel; if you lose a wheel or tyre again, you will be involuntarily retired
from the rally.
scoring points
At the end of each rally you are awarded points. These are based on your
cumulative time as you cross the finish lines of each stage. The winner of the
Championship is the driver with the most points. Points are awarded as follows
for each leaderboard position:
1st

running order
The running order of each rally is determined by your current position in the
Championship. If you are top of the Championship standings, you’ll be first onto
each stage of the rally. While this does mean you’re in a winning position, you will
not have any information on your opponents’ Split Times that you have to beat.
If you are lower down the Championship standings, you have the advantage of
knowing the Stage and Split Times of all those who have gone before, and will
know what time you need to beat to forge through to the lead.

co-driver pace notes
Take up the challenge of rallying through any of the unlocked stages with any of the
unlocked cars – see [Unlocks] – in one to four-player action. Select the number of
players from the Stages Menu to proceed.
Nicky Grist, your co-driver, is as important to your success through the rally as is
your skill as a driver. Listen to him. Throughout each stage, he will feed you vital
information about the oncoming terrain in the form of pace notes. These pace notes,
unique to each stage, are individually recorded by Nicky Grist himself and are
especially crucial on night stages or when visibility is limited.
Single player
Grist’s pace notes take the form of a call, detailing distance, a gear number, terrain
features in the order they occur, and sometimes a warning. The distance to the
approaching obstacle is given in metres with a suggestion for the gear that it should
be taken in; the higher the gear, the faster your likely speed and the easier will be the
obstacle to overcome. For example, “3 left into four right over crest”.
Select your car, followed by the type of gearbox you want to use, the country and the
rally stage to race on.
Only the default rally stages and cars, plus those unlocked and awarded for
achievements in Championship Mode will be available for selection – see [Unlocks
and Awards].
Some of this information is also illustrated on screen, for example:
Two – four players
Players take turns to complete the stage and drive for
the fastest time.
First, Player 1 selects whether to play in Split-Screen
or Alternate Mode. In Split-Screen Mode, up to four
players can rally simultaneously on a halved or
quartered screen (sufficient controllers must be
connected to your PC and correctly configured for this
to be playable - see the instructions supplied with your
controller). In Alternate Mode, players take turns to
complete the selected rally stage (see below).

Note: Your co-driver may call a “6” in a situation where you are unable to reach 6th gear. In
this case, the “6” means to go as fast as you can, i.e “Nail it!”.

(including but not limited to video, audio and other content
incorporated therein) and title to any and all copies thereof are owned
by Codemasters or its licensors, and you receive no right or interest
therein other than the limited license in paragraph 1 hereof.
YOU SHALL NOT:
* Copy the Program.
* Sell, rent, lease, license, distribute or otherwise transfer or make
available to any other person the Program, in whole or in part, or use
the Program or any part thereof in any commercial context, including
but not limited to using in a service bureau, "cyber cafe", computer
gaming center or any other commercial location in which multiple
users may access the Program. Codemasters may offer a separate
Site License Agreement to permit you to make the Program available
for commercial use; see the contact information below.
* Reverse engineer, derive source code, modify, decompile,
disassemble, or create derivative works of the Program, in whole or in
part.
* Remove, disable or circumvent any proprietary notices or labels
contained on or within the Program.
LIMITED WARRANTY. Codemasters warrants to the original consumer
purchaser of the Program that the recording medium on which the
Program is recorded will be free from defects in material and
workmanship for 90 days from the date of purchase. If the recording
medium of a product is found defective within 90 days of original
purchase, Codemasters agrees to replace, free of charge, such
product within such period upon its receipt of the Product, postage
paid, with proof of the date of purchase, as long as the Program is still
being manufactured by Codemasters. In the event that the Program
is no longer available, Codemasters retains the right to substitute a
similar program of equal or greater value. This warranty is limited to
the recording medium containing the Program as originally provided
by Codemasters and is not applicable and shall be void if the defect
has arisen through abuse, mistreatment, or neglect. Any implied
warranties prescribed by statute are expressly limited to the 90-day
period described above.
EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL
OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR CLAIMS
OF ANY KIND SHALL BE BINDING ON OR OBLIGATE CODEMASTERS.
When returning the Program for warranty replacement please send
the original product disks only in protective packaging and include: (1)
a photocopy of your dated sales receipt; (2) your name and return
address typed or clearly printed; (3) a brief note describing the defect,
the problem(s) you encountered and the system on which you are
running the Program.
LIMITATION ON DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL CODEMASTERS BE
LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
RESULTING FROM POSSESSION, USE OR MALFUNCTION OF THE
PROGRAM, INCLUDING DAMAGES TO PROPERTY, LOSS OF GOODWILL,
COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION AND, TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURIES, EVEN IF
CODEMASTERS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES. CODEMASTER’S LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE
ACTUAL PRICE PAID FOR THE LICENSE TO USE THIS PROGRAM. SOME
STATES/COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN
IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS AND/OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION
OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE
LIMITATIONS AND/OR EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY MAY
NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL
RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM
JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.
TERMINATION. Without prejudice to any other rights of Codemasters,
this Agreement will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with
its terms and conditions. In such event, you must destroy all copies
of the Program and all of its component parts.
INJUNCTION. Because Codemasters would be irreparably damaged if
the terms of this Agreement were not specifically enforced, you agree
that Codemasters shall be entitled, without bond, other security or
proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to
breaches of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as
Codemasters may otherwise have under applicable laws.
INDEMNITY. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold Codemasters, its
partners, affiliates, contractors, officers, directors, employees and
agents harmless from all damages, losses and expenses arising
directly or indirectly from your acts and omissions to act in using the
Program pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement represents the complete
agreement concerning this license between the parties and
supersedes all prior agreements and representations between them.
It may be amended only by a writing executed by both parties. If any
provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any
reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary
to make it enforceable and the remaining provisions of this Agreement
shall not be affected. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of England and you consent to
the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England.
