Just a heads up if anyone hasnt found this themselves. Someone converted the dirt rally pikes peak course into assetto corsa, its freaking amazing. They have all the different surface types, and whats cool is if you turn on the 3d volumetric clouds in the sol config you will actually wind up going so high that at the end of the run you're driving through and above some clouds. I've never experienced anything quite like it in a racing game before. It's easily the best hillclimb track available right now in AC. It definitely takes some of the sting away from us missing out on having this track in dirt rally 2.0
@@Nick1one_ Gabenhood (search on YT) is the dude who has converted (and still working to improve) all 3 pikes peak layouts in Assetto Corsa (they've also converted a lot of DR1 rally stages on top of that)
pikes peak is 95% of my play time in that game, it was such a good challenge to not only learn the course but to try and piece together that perfect run
I just discovered this game in my Steam library. Apparently I got it for free before they delisted it and I forgot about. I've been playing in VR, on a controller, for last week and I'm ADDICTED. So damn fun. Now I'm seriously looking at a entry level Fanatech setup and I've never been a sim guy
It's a legendary course and it's no joke man. A true endurance. Three quarters up the mountain the air starts getting thin. Not only battling your car but also trying to get air in your lungs.
I really wish they'd bring back all the wacky models too, even some historical ones, like sure the Escudo and maybe even Tajima's electric special from a while ago would be a given, but it'd be fun to have a mode where you go throughout the years and try and beat the record with each subsequent car, like you do it in an Indy Roadster, then do it in a quattro, then the 405 then Millen's celica, and tacoma, and suzuki escudo(include the twin engine one aswell cowards), the 208, and the ID R.
Holy shit, DiRT Rally 1 blew me away when it first came out, it instantly became one of my favourite games of all time, and even now it still looks incredible and plays so well. I even prefer it over DR2.0, tbh? Just...something about it 💖 great job GPLaps, you did a damn sight better than me up the mountain 😅
Ive always feel that DR1 have more hardcore realistic habdling driving model than DR2... *Slightly toned down* Probably toned down even futher in eaWRC (while boosting up overall tyre grip)
DR 1.0 is the best rally game STILL (even with eaWRC out). I bought DR 2, and loved the graphics upgrade but quickly realized (espeically with higher power cars), that it is not as realistic, especially the grip and weight transfer mechanics. Plus when your going fast, on most tracks the graphics difference is minimal. Only noticeable with very dusty/rough tracks like Greece, and Italy.
This takes me back to 2016. I got Dirt Rally for free when I bought an AMD graphics card and I didn't have any real interest in the game, it was just a bonus that happened to come with the GPU purchase. I hadn't even played a racing game in years. On some boring evening I actually installed it, just to give it a try. And then it absolutely captivated me. 200+ hours of gameplay later I had finished all the rallies on master difficulty and put hours into countless Pikes Peak runs with all the available vehicles. And it kickstarted my whole love for simracing, leading to thousands of hours in all of the current racing sims. Not sure why I'm writing this, but seeing your Pikes Peak run made me very nostalgic. Dirt Rally will always have a special place in my heart.
I remembered when I played Dirt Rally spending all my time up this mountain - never got too good at the proper rallies but my goodness was this a blast. Thanks for taking me back!
Agree also,I think it's codemasters best game and can't see it being bettered anytime soon unfortunately.If only they had released extra dlc tracks/countries for it 😔
I find myself going back to this run more regularly than most other things... and to think you can find the full game of DiRT Rally for literally just a few bucks these days
It's funny how I also reinstalled DR just over a week ago as I remembered there was Pikes Peak in it. Nice to see your video so soon after getting back into the game. Absolute blast!
Ahhh... my nostalgia is kicking in when i played the og dirt rally years ago with mitsubishi fto pikes peak it was hard to make fast time having very little knowledge of the course and the car so thanks GPLaps for making me happy to night 😊😊.
What a Great Video, God Damn. Your Passion for Rally/Motorsport, Racing, Knowledge of Racecraft, Creativity, etc Had me "locked in" the whole time. That doesnt happen to me very often. Thank you, My Friend. I needed that.
Dude i have only just come across your channel you impressed me with the TT full lap on Ride on the edge. You sir have earned my subscription amazing content
DR had it's faults when it came to realism. For instance it was easy to destroy PP course records by over a minute as the power didn't dip as you got up higher and the cars probably had a little too much grip. Regardless of its faults in the physics, DR is one of the best racing games I've ever played and I'd argue it's still one of the best now.
Thank Polyphony for that one, they got the license to be exclusive for Gran Turismo only but don’t use the track…… Love to have Pikes Peak in DR2. If Polyphony only bought the license after DR2s release….
I lived in Colorado Springs in the early 1990s. I drove up Pikes Peak several times. It's absolutely gorgeous. You could pick out individual buildings in Denver 70 miles to the north on a good clear day. This is a nice depiction of Pikes Peak.
Finally some DR1 love. I personally think DR1 > DR2.0, just my opinion. The graphics, physx, particles, dirt on car, feeling, sounds, camera movement in 3rd person, everything. Ego engine came down from D4 way too down and simplifies, both from optimization on pc to feeling of the game. I may be wrong, but that's how I feel. To learn to drive in DR1, it took years of experience to get into top 50/100 players on daily/weekly/monthly events online, pure rally. In D4/DR2.0, reviewers could already "master" it in few weeks of reviewing the game. It's not the same experience/feeling of what the game can show you, but that's just my opinion/feeling and I needed to write it down for some reason.
Agreed! Dirt rally just captures everything I want from a rally game,really wanted to like dirt 2.0 but feels like something is missing for me personally and the new EA wrc isn't gritty enough.
I visited and drove up Pikes Peak this summer and it was (quite literally) breathtaking. Just a beautiful drive and a perspective you can’t get but in a few other places in the world. It would be great if iRacing were able to do a scan of it like they did Mt. Washington
Oh no no no - I nominate for Pikes Peak to be recreated on BeamNG, if it hasn't already. It'll give Alex and his FailRace mob a bit of a challenge, not to mention the Broadbented One...
Nice! I spent a LOT of time running Pikes Peak in DR1. As you said, theres time to save in slower corners but really it’s just so much fun to drive this course 😎
Dirt rally 2.0 is my favourite racing game, and my first rally game. I never knew it omitted my absolute dream track. God I love pikes peak, especially gravel, maybe one day Gran Turismo will have it…
I have kept a PS3 and copy of the disk just for Pikes Peak full dirt run, a piece of history now but what a piece of history. Apparently the tarmac is helping to prevent erosion.
Gotta love these monsters, tho personally the drive i personally connect the most is Ari Vatanen's drive with the Peugeot 405 T16 in '88 (yeah, i m a finn, big surpise :D). The Climb Dance short movie and driving that beast one handed while other hand blocks the sun, just mental.
You're right, that was awesome. Good choice picking the Audi, that remains a monster to this day. Pikes Peak is a monumental challenge, and let's face it, ever so slightly longer than Shelsey Walsh. Naturally, you made it look all so easy.
Perhaps one of the reasons for the big difference in your and real time is that Dirt Rally does not realize a lack of oxygen in the mountains and, accordingly, a decrease in engine power
graphics, gameplay, sounds, feeling, basically everything is better than eas wrc 😢(i understand there are mods but devs could also download these mods and investigate them to make their new game better) I was already quite bummed that Dirt Rally 2.0 didn't have hilclimbing in it (so I kept both installed for a very long time, but games nowadays also wasted a lot of storage space for unnecessary stuff like customizations that even though the I don't use them, and do not wanna see them on others, I want vanilla versions of all games, iI will pay extra to see everyone without customizations myself included...) I am amazed how gaming just evolves backwards! we need more leads programmer/designer/artists that put their LOVE and INTO "games" like old days instead of just producing `products`...
Not sure why but that hill holds so much emotion for me, but seeing Lia Block run the Hoonipigasus up it last year as a tribute to her farther had me in tears. I love this course and wish it was in more games. It's so iconic, like Nords or Monico. It's one of the greats of motor racing.
I can't believe I lived in Colorado Springs for 10 years, and never watched the race. Been to the fan event almost every year, and saw Walter's S1 in person as well, just never the actual race! Hope they bring it back as DLC or something in the new game. Colin McRae Rally 3 had more Colorado Springs courses as well, dirt roads I've driven on. Good times. I miss Colorado.
i bought dirt rally 1 three month ago just for pikes peak and its awesome. especially the gravel version. there is a pikes peak map for Beamng, but dirt rally is much more immersive.
Driving the 405 up to the top was one of the rare times my wrists got tired, as I kept shifting all the time, having to deal with the whole FFB with a single hand for the biggest part
I remember beating the time of Sebastien Loeb with the 208 T16, and being so damn happy about it. Until I learned about the poor tarmac physics of this game. Still, kind of a shame that hillclimb did not return to DR2, and now there's no chance in the WRC game, and also Pikes Peak being now tied to Gran Turismo for who knows how many years.
Kaz is an actual hack that doesn't understand anything about why people like cars, or games. Pikes Peak isn't even IN the game and probably won't be, ever...
Gran Turismo doesnt have the license of Pikes Peak Hillclimb, they're just the main sponsor of the event. Same happens with the Nurburgring 24h race btw, GT is the main sponsor but that doesn't mean anything in terms of licensing
Wow I totally forgot this was a thing in the original DiRT Rally. Watching this I remember it being insanely difficult and I'd always crash, maybe I should try it again now that I'm far more skilled at rally games.
Audi Quattro and Pikes Peak you have to think of the Queen of the Mountain Michelle Moutton the only women to win. Can't wait for WRC next week. Already bought it. I knew I would give in.
As a spectator I kinda wish it had stayed 100% gravel, I'm not sure why they went full tarmac, safety I presume, anyway great vid mate, keep up the awesome work.
In 2002, the Sierra Club environmental organization sued against the city of Colorado Springs, seeking compensation for erosion damages caused by many years of dust thrown by cars during the races. They won the case, and this started the progressive paving of the highway (and therefore the race course).
Yeah it was actually environmental damage, they were kicking gravel into every water source for miles and fucking up all sorts of streams and rivers and water tables.
I spent countless hours driving Pikes Peak in Dirt Rally, but I always felt it was a shame they didn't include all the Pikes Peak cars that were in the previous titles, Dirt 1 and Dirt 3 had a bunch of awesome cars like Rod Millen's Toyota Tacoma and Celica, and Marcus Gronholm's Ford Fiesta. It bothered me that they provided the mixed surface version of Pikes Peak but didn't include any cars that actually raced on that configuration.
I used to go to this race every year. Since I live in Colorado. It was a blast until the tree huggers cried to much about the gravel eroding the environment so now its all asphalt. I don’t go anymore cuz it just not the same. Also the one time of year they would let you camp there too. Really miss those times
Loved Pikes Peak at in DR 1.0. I just wish they hadn't limited it to only 3 cars. I'd have liked to take any of the games cars up. Not sure that you experience any power drop in the game as you get higher up.
Hi Jake. After watching this I had to fire up Dirt Rally and have a run at Pike's Peak. I had a lot of trouble with the FFB, it being an older game. I'm running a DD wheel. Did you alter the in-game FFB settings? I made a lot of adjustments but just couldn't get it right.

RIP virtual Pikes Peak... And Sony (Gran Turismo) STILL hasn't done anything with their license since it was first reported in 2017.

Ive been wanting to get a good rally sim but couldnt make up my mind what i wanted for sure yet
It's the feature I miss the most in DR2.0
Why does this look better than wrc23?...lol
Still installed on my PC, strictly for Pikes Peak!
Awesome 👏👏👏 Bravo 👌🍾
Brooo i totally forgot i was watching a game :O
I would fly off the edge near the finis probably
I wish they had added this to dirt rally 3
You upgraded your setup again? Last I thought you were using a T300 and TLCM pedals or am I thinking of someone else?
Did you use your hand to block the sun, like Ari Vatanen did in his Peugeot 405 T16 ? ;-)
It's something that felt really weird to me in DR2.0.
another option for your pike's fix is BeamNG Drive; there's mods of the all-dirt and all-paved eras available
