![What is a WRC Car? [Rally1 Cars Explained]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/xortDJcVu8E/mqdefault.jpg)
I love how the non-car-guys are always the ones that get to do this type of stuff.
very much a non-car guy. When he had to have the starter explained to him (and didn't know Norway's flag) I realized it was going to be like watching someone else's baby learn to walk.
they sponsor people that wont criticize them in any way
You're driving a rally car and you don't know the Norwegian flag.....
The Captain "I'm gonna be from that country"
Oh boi and soon its or national day 1 x in my books if me hating this guy
*You're
I watch some rally and I have no fucking idea what Norway has to do with rally that id need to know the flag lol
If it's rally and Scandinavian everyone is going to think of Finland
You get to drive a WRC car and yet you drive it like a sexually frustrated soccer dad in a mini van
you get 2 drive a La Ferrari or 918 i think you would drive the same. you cant afford it or cant afford an accident
Its the point of the video tho
This is the best and true :D :D
I have 2 words: public road.
@@georgekurgansky5986 doesn't mean shit in the US man
This guy doesn't even understand what rally is, and hes acting like genius
huh?
Cant watch this. Why couldnt the person be a car guy instead of a non car guy
Rob Seb
And furthermore; a rally guy.
Comments like, ‘I don’t know what that flag is’ made me shudder.
tats the whole point of this video... to put the car through the normal daily stuff... the driver had to be a regular driver... the lesser he knew about it the more he would admire it...
@@adc420able Except he is supposedly one of the biggest 'motoring journalists' in the country. Not a regular driver.
Non car guy turns on the engine:
hears the perfect engine sound*
Just says *okay*
thats
“That chief engineer seems nervous on the road with him driving with his one word answers “😓😂
Wouldnt u be
Lmfao yuh I mean it is 750k that get me scared shitless
I was thinking he’s probably more nervous with him then he’s probably ever been with the rally driver lol
Yez
mr beast uncle.
13:28 this guy should've been the host
Got to 3:42 and decided that I had enough. Get people to do these test that actually get excited and enjoy it.
Host: "Believe it or not, this car once started life as a regular Hyundai I20"
Me: "Wow, so I can rally my Hyundai?!!
Host: "$700,000 of modifications later..."
Me: "Daaaamn!!! There goes that thought..."
To make it admissible to a rally on a budget you might get away with just spending about $10k (most of it in safety equipment). But then again, you would have no chance to even make qualifying.
@@yoshyoka Really depends on the cup, class etc. etc.
Some friends and I partake in a few rally cups every year and we do get podium or near-podium quite often.
Total investment made on our car? Around 8K including purchase of the thing.
Rally isn't just WRC, there are also plenty of amateur cups specifically made for "rallying on a budget".
Would have been funny with the original topgear team, this guy is a funny as cardboard.
tigesinaus I would prefer May over that Guy
Honestly I think he's just another online car reviewer who got lucky with a channel that has resources, I don't think he's as bad as people make him out to be though, I prefer him to modern Mighty Car Mods
drumboarder1 mighty car mods atleast know what a car is
This host is cringy to watch.
I didn't think the presenter cared that he was driving a real WRC car. I would kill to drive one. I've seen them up close but never driven one and that's my ultimate goal, drive one. Overall this could of been better or maybe given to someone who actually cared about the car.
Trust me, I love WRC and I grow up owning a WRX that was heavily modified and I have enormous respect for the genre and its drivers... we had a lot of restrictions with what we could do with this car, we basically weren't allowed to go fast or turn on the anti lag system or put it in race mode. So we did the best we could
Fair point, that explains things now.
I would like to see Jeremy Clarkson getting in it
Should of seen him in the WRC Impreza.
he get in a p50, i don't think he has problem with this
@@Kio_186 hes pretty old now lol
@@argenys8 well you are right hahaha
"I'm going to be from that country...whatever it is"...ignorance at its best
Anand Ramani u mean 80% of america at their best (pls dont hate me i know what ya mean). And its very sad
@@Ivwin hate to break it to you man but this is australia...
@@Ivwin the irony....
@@vincentnghiem9280 Mate we have been America for more than few years now :)
@@sweaspurdoddd5466 yes indeed
The way he touched that START button 3 times. OMG. Just like looking at 5 year old kids that have never seen a button phone, with exception of this kid being 30 years old. I need a hug now.
That one lucky WRC Neuville fan that got to sit in Mikkelsen's car... if that was me i would have shat myself of joy
That would have been interesting on video! Thanks for your feedback!
i guess this guy never drives a manual.
I was wondering if it's a hyper sticky clutch... But then he wasn't giving it gas while raising the clutch initially, so you're probably right.
even a person who can usually drive manual would have a hard time with this type of clutch and gearbox. A race type clutch is simply on and off, no slip and instant grab.
Like jean luc says... there are no sprung hubs in these clutches and they are incredibly difficult to get off the line if you are not used to them. I can guarantee that everyone in here would stall that car on first launch.
No no. Ive driven brass button and triple puck clutches before, they are simply on and off, you just cant ride them at all, and theyre incredibly jolt-y, but i did have one in a daily car for 3 years (brass button, if you ride it, it cooks)
Broienk Baieyne did it have a sprung hub or not though? The sprung spline hub helps loads and these cars don't have them.
I can;t watch this guy drive. I'm out.
i love the way the driver of this car rolls on rally streets.. so fascinating.
Thanks for the feedback!
That has to be the engineer's dream, drive a rally car through a drivethrough haha
Get out of that machine you peasant!!
Rally cars are awesome ;v
I got stuck in it, those seats are tight :-) - Alborz
el Mikas lmaooo
Nice. If i had a fucking huge amount of money, would never buy any of those fancy sportscars. Just imagine stuck in the traffic with a rally car, and spotting a nice gravel road, leaving all those peasants behind...
good luck with that , but there not road legal. only during official events can drivers go between rally stages to drive them on the road.
jean luc Dubinator I know that at least here in the us the cars in the rally events have to be completely road legal to run, so I would assume these would be able to be ran as daily driver if you wanted
+Declan White during an official rally cars are inspected and giving a temporary Mot and can only circulate from stage to stage at the legal speed limit. After the rally is complete the cars have there temp permits removed . If your thinking of registering a full spec rally car at local DMV good luck , these cars are no way road legal . I know this from personal experience.
No you do not jean... Here in Australia we can acquire rally registration. this is extremely cheap but is also rather limiting. you can drive the vehicle on the road within a radius of the registered address of the vehicle, between certain times, if you are to go outside of said radius or outside of said times, you must contact either RMS to check and obtain allowance to do so, requiring a reason being either a car show of which you are to participate in, relocation of the car from one place to another or competing/transporting in a rally.
Also these cars are road legal under rally registration, they are exempt from all road rules so long as they are given a certification by an approved engineer after inspection.
+Declan White nope, there only legal between stages and for a short period. Like I said if you don't believe me go to your local DMV with a full spec rally race car and they'll just laugh and say ..... Eh No . At least in North America anyway.
You can obviously tell from the chief mechanic’s face that he is so done with this dude
huh?
The WRC I20 is a Legend
Doug Demuro needs to do this. I would love to see the Doug Score
2:48 Such disrespect
just let it be so everyone thinks that ur real Mikkelsen
"Im gonna be from that country, Whatever that is"
13:27 That guy is probably a Dutch or Belgian tourist on holiday, based on his accent.
And he supports Thierry Neuville (BEL)
Probably.
man, the disrespect if he drew at the Norwegian flag
fuk norwey
Great vid!
at 2:59 that's so offensive for NORVEGIAN people for christ sake. This is not like a lost country my god get your shit together and learn a little bit more about th mainstream geography jesus
PWOX™ yea i got a bit triggerd there Im from norway
I think it was joke, he knows what country it is
I REALLY hope for him and his culture knowledge
Gees dont you guys in norway know what humour is?
hexagonview it doesnt sounded enough sarcastic to be viewed as a joke from my POV and I'm personnaly from france but i though it must be painful for norvegian people aswell if he was serious
10:44 the driver is dying lmaoo
Such a beautiful and amazing car..
I don’t think he knows what a clutch is really
Those fools drive with automatics
Nah tbf this clutch is quite aggressive you need much more throttle than you normally would need
Poor subaru 15:27, must've felt intimidated
Shadow _1 true, but if the subaru had 700k on mods it Would smoke that Hyundai.
@Nai-son ` BOI. YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT SUBARU IN THE 90s
Ones a rally legend and always be remembered,the other is a hyundai
@@adriigonzaalez1788 yea you mean every 9 year olds "Rally car", fuckers don't even know who made it famous.
this car is more luxurious as some of my "race cars" i owned and used as daily to and from work as well as raced on trackdays.
so did you like never driven a car without a start/stop button before? :D
Most start/stop buttons in regular cars are simply push and release, no need to hold the button - so it is understandable that he didn't know you had to hold this one in without instruction from the mechanic.
Every race car ive ever driven/built we simply wire a momentary button to the starter motor, hold it like you hold a key in a normal car
@@nightowlnzab yeah but he didnt hold it like 6 times
My GAZ 52 has basically same system
Never seen a worse host of any car channel. Dude is the most casual car guy ever lol
Damn!! I love that spoiler
Half a million! Wow. That really helps me manage my expectations with the Mini Cooper I’ve just inherited.
Poor copilot looks like mini-me. Great upload. Thanks
HI CarAdvice, such a different video for a rally fan! Amazing!!, what a experience driving on the city. Its that really an i20 WRC or a 100% replica ? or its that Hyundai offer this one to promove the activity?
i20... I'm loving it.
You don't know the Norwegian flag?? Dra til helvete 🇳🇴😠
Ford Sierra yeah 🇳🇴😠
🇫🇮😇
Phoenix AO you play my summer car?🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮
the lunagamer169tm ive played it but i got bored fast :P
the lunagamer169tm do you have other games
They drove it in Australia?? With stearing wheel on left??
How do you manage to do this in nanny state Australia.
good work
Wish I could be able to ride one and do the same drive throughs here
this video is awesome. thank you for posting and sharing.
I wish they would have come to the northern beaches.
Can he drive a regular manual transmission?
I can't imagine what the person driving behind them in the drive through was thinking when he pulled up😂
Kfc part was so funny xD
Sent a complete amateur im jealous
I have a big question I can not get answers for anywhere but this car is based of the 1.2 model coupe road hyundai public can buy but my question I presume the 1.6 T GDI engine bolts streight into it without any mods as they only ever made it 1.2 in the basic model of this
Real question for a second (thought you may doubt its legitimacy for a minute!)
What MPG do you get out of this? Looking at buying one for my daily commute to the old folks home then maybe to the bingo hall which is a distance of at least 8 miles from my current convalescent home - im worried ill only be getting about 1.3 mpg just like my last car my Tyrell P34 which ill have you know is fucking useless, cant even get my zimmer frame in the thing! If anyone could help me out and if anyone happens to have some idea about part exchanging my current car for this Hyundai WRC Car it would be great - Thanks HAROLD (87 years young!)
@15.27 when the real rally car appears 😂
You should hava taken the last guy for a ride!!!
i dont mind drive this in daily drives
what kind of MPG does it get ? 12 mpg?
why there is the same Chef Mechanic in the Hyundai and the Ford rally car?
Dioooos que lo ROMPEEES
I have always dreamed. If I was a millionaire. Having a sleeper i20 or Fiesta that is Rally or RallyX built underneath. Nobody would suspect a thing... Apart from the glowing exhaust
Muerooo De Amooor Por Ese Autooo😍😍😍😍😍😍
How much this car to buy for normal streets? And where to buy?
3:43 The engine sounds like an airplane 😎
캬~ 나도 한번 타봤으면~
Holy crap you went to the same west field I use to go I at until I moved
He obviously does not drive a car with s manual transmission let alone a sequential gearbox. But he knows his way around a fast food drive thru restaurant based on his physical size. 😋
This was a very nice video.
That chief engineer looks terrified!
what a beast
I wish I had that opportunity to drive a wrc car
do you have the bycicle driving license?
Rookie, my 83 year old Mum could have rev'd and feathered the clutch better
I understand the sarcasm to what youre saying but... you cant feather the clutch in these cars due to the clutch type in the transmission
Broienk Baieyne Thank you!
OK but why is there a clutch pedal then? I'm sure it can be modulated.
@@rolfen In order to prevent stalls in the corners. When pulling the handbrake, it is always best to use the clutch to prevent stalls. But, this and all other WRC cars (WRC, WRC-2, WRC-3, J-WRC) either use paddles or a sequential stick shifter. Also, just like a normal manual car, the car will stall if the revs bottom out completely. If you hold the clutch when you are at idle, it won’t stall, like a normal H-Pattern car.
I'd like to remind people how hard upgraded clutches are to deal with
Does the guy not know how to drive manual or is the clutch ultra sensitive.
良いなぁ😊
運転してみたい🚙💨
Got some big feels he never got to drive it on public roads himself hah
is the mechanic high ? he looks so happy lol such a nice bloke.
Is the i30n even out yet?
3:57 ehy just like my first day of driving lesson with my father
$700k worth of modification. Yes, I believe that could've started out as a regular i20.
How many more of those could I buy with 700 000?
Am İ the only one surprised to see a German plated car in Australia and to see someone not recognising the Norwegian flag? 😂
I was surprised by the latter but not the former.
Yes
The i20 is a beast...my cousine have one of this
Has this guy ever seen a manual transmission car in his life? If he only knows automatic (not much to know about it anyway), he shouldn't be trying to drive this one and eventually damage the clutch (not cheap on a WRC car).
wait wait wait gearbox manual with cluch ?? or secuencial with cluch?... ahmm im confused
Owsam bro I like that
Damn do i want one
"They must think its a riced out version of an i20 car" I'm dead. x'D
4:00 do you even drive stick bro?
Chief : “yes”
Damn people are rude dont mid them I'm glad you got to experience this and I bet the majority of these people being rude have never drove rally and would not even be able to move the car
14:13 this guy Dutch
The teeth caught me off-guard at 1:00 because I was thinking no one else was in the car.
My first thought was DEMON! DEMON! GET OUT!
Scary.
Thanks for your feedback!
So that was his fist time driving car
This guy!!!!
I was a little saddend by this video, the fact that almost Nobody seemed to even look twice or care that there was a real, world competing rally car driving the streets. Most of them probably thought it was just a fake copy. The drive through was pretty funny, i would love to ride around in it for a day.
