DiRT 4 puts emphasis on ‘fear factor’ of rally driving

DiRT 4 – the follow-up to Codemasters Dirt Rally have released a new trailer which shows how its fast cars and dirt tracks reflect the real-life “fear factor” of rally driving.

World renowned rally driver, Kris Meeke who worked as a handling consultant on DiRT 4 said: “You have to forget about the fear factor. It’s purely about winning or losing. That’s the real special element in rally.”

Two-time FIA World Rallycross champion and DiRT 4 handling consultant Petter Solberg said: “If you believe in yourself a lot, you know you will jump in the car again and be fast… I won three races in a row after probably the biggest ever accident in rally. It’s about how much you want it!”
