We recently asked our DiRT 3 community if they had any questions they'd like to ask 2009 IRC rally champion Kris Meeke about not only his involvement with DiRT 3 and what he thought about the game, but also rally in general. The community responded with force, asking numerous questions on our official DiRT 3 Twitter and Facebook pages. Here are his answers! Towards the end of the video you also get to see Kris trying his hand at Gymkhana in DiRT 3 for the first time. It's only a small snippet but we'll be showing off more of this at a later date, and how Kris really gets to grips with Gymkhana.
