Playing DiRT Rally? Join our live interactive tournament at 2pm today

I suck at DiRT Rally, so obviously that means I’ll be taking part in a live DiRT Rally tournament this afternoon – and you’ll be my competition.

I’ll be joined by the rest of Team VG as I race my way through an 18-stage event live on VideoGamerTV from 2pm today and, if you’ve picked up a copy of DiRT Rally, you can show me exactly how it’s done.

To get involved, just join the VideoGamer League, head to the in-game Leagues section, enter the VideoGamer event and submit your times. While I’ll be streaming the entire thing this afternoon, the actual event will remain open all the way through the Bank Holiday weekend, meaning you have until Monday evening to complete all 18 stages.

Some of you have already gotten involved (thank you!) which should make the tournament way more interesting when it gets underway this afternoon. But the more players there are the better it’ll be, and because the event is already live you can give me some times to start aiming for before I sit down to race.

There won’t be any prizes other than knowing you left me for dust, but let’s face it, that’s probably all the motivation you need. And remember: you only get one chance to complete each stage. If you end up wrapping your car around a tree on the first turn, that’s it. And, because we’ll be racing in the Group A Subaru Impreza, make sure you’re comfortable getting behind the wheel of a more powerful car first.

And even if you haven’t picked up DiRT Rally, please do join us anyway. You don’t even have to go anywhere. We’ll be streaming live in the video above at 2pm. I’ll have probably wrecked my car by 2:01pm.
