They actually listened and added the Irish stages to the game which feels like a total dream because seeing those tight tarmac roads finally on the screen is just amazing. I still cannot believe we managed to pull this off but keep an eye on the upcoming updates just to …

Basically, codemasters will do most things with their new game DIRT rally if there is enough interest. They released this game as an early access title for PC only and want people to download it, play it and give them feedback to help them develop what could be on the the best rally sim racing games ever. Currently there are 3 countries on it, Wales, Greece and Monaco (Monte Carlo) with what i believe to be 12 stages per country in the form of 2 long stages also run in reverse, these 2 stages halfed each to provide 4 short stages which are also run in reverse and possibly mirrored to provide 12 stages per country. They are planning to release stages from countries like Germany and Finland this year, but what about IRISH TAR on the game? Sure enough, because Ireland is not frequently on the WRC calendar it is overlooked for projects like this but with its recent inclusions in the ERC and FIA EHRC championships, why shouldnt it be included? Our stages are without doubt, the best tarmac stages in the world, demanding, rough and tight and only a short ferry crossing for Codemasters to research. Codemasters are well known for their work with the late great Colin McRae on previous titles and even he had nothing but praise for Irish Rallying. So here is what i propose, possibly 2 long stages, Molls Gap and Knockalla., run them in reverse aswell. Split them in half to provide 4 more stages and reverse/mirror those 4 half stages to give a grand total of the 12 of the best sections of tarmac Ireland has to offer. If this gets enough signatures I will forward this onto Codemasters and im sure they cant say no. Sign the petition and if you are on twitter, use the hashtag #IrelandForDIRT as much as possible. This is an oppurtunity to broadcast Irish Rallying to a more diverse and larger international audience so why not?

I was just staring at the screen for ten minutes because I actually cannot believe how quickly this has taken off since I started typing it out in a fit of frustration late at night. Honestly I thought I was just yelling into the void about Molls Gap but now it feels like maybe someone at the studio is finally paying attention to all the noise we are making.

Ireland has some of the best narrow tarmac stages in the world, if not trickier than Germany's. So why not? Would be a good addition to the sim. We could have Donegal since its one of the more popular ones or even moll's gap in kilearney.

Donegal International Classics such as High Glen, Atlantic Drive, Knockalla, Fanad Head should also be considered. Torr Head, Molls Gap, Caragh Lake all worthy of a mention too.

Irish stages deserve to be included in this game ,as Irish rallying has some of the best stages in the world and holds the only 3 day rally in the british isles.

Definitely love to see some Irish tarmac on DiRT Rally. Watching on-board footage is awesome on YouTube and it would be incredible to experience it for myself in game. Don't forget the hay bale chicanes!

Irish stages such as rally if the lakes galway international rally and Donegal should be on dirt because Colin McRae rallied here and said theses are the best stages in the world so why not?
