Send power for "Pedal to the Metal" achievement

[Custom Priest]

Hello dear Dirt Rally 2.0 community,
I'm currently trying to get the achievement "Pedal to the Metal" where I need to drive below 7 minutes in a Subaru Impreza S4 in the 12 km stage of Scotland.
I'm currently sitting on a PB of 7:09...

Any major tips for a guy with 13 hours in the game?
I'm not messing up with the setups because I think the default one is pretty solid.
No assists but automatic shifting.
I'm on controller.

Thanks for any help and salute!

Hi

Try this setup from Rally Technical.

If necessary, they change the setups to suit their driving behavior.

For example, I ride the stage the first time through.

Then I change the setup and compare the times from the first section, because that way I don't have to ride the whole stage.

Changing the gear ratio also brings some times, you have to test that.

If it works, I ride the whole stage again.

Managed to get that achievement in 6:59.999 -
Never had the heart to try to go any faster as its so close.

also you need to use manual gearbox. automatic, isnt enough, or at least it would be way harder. for example, look at how in certain parts i drive quite a while in a specific gear, with automatic gearbox it would make ur car more unstable and lose more time. also i got a time of 6:53.983, and my previous best used to be 7:10 just like you
