Alpine A110 in dirt rally 2.0 is my favorite car in any sim rally game because its got like no power, its light, and you can either drive it really fast or really slow, no in between
People seem to forget that irl drivers start in the slow classes, sharpen and train their skills and then go into the faster classes afterwards. Most people just want to jump into the fastest class and try to drive like the pros only to crash into everything.
I love the fwd lancia in dirt rally 2 because it sounds like a swarm of bees and the lift off oversteer is so satisfying when you have back to back left and right corners
As a dude from poland im actually very happy to see a polski fiat 126p. The 126p is used in alot of driving industries. Drifiting Rallying Racing. All round great rust bucket. Great vid. Of course giving a sub. :)
My friends and i gather like once every few months to do a small tournament in assetto corsa, and its always low powered machines, its just infinitely more fun to go in a bone stock golf 2 gti, than in a touring car for example.
That's something I've been preaching for more than 25 years, now, since the golden days of the first GT on PS1... There was a time when I made a name as a tuner on various games in some small french gaming communities, and my point was this, that you don't need a big powerful car to have fun and, depending on the track or the special, smaller more modest cars will be the pinnacle of entertainment. The problem nowadays being, even game studios push in the wrong direction a lot of times: on FM8, we had to wait until this month special event to have "small" fun cars to go with, instead of insipid super and hypercars... It's great to see some people from the actual generation getting to it too 😊
Iam with you. Intresting to see that 600 Hp Cars become like normal. And question ist wehre you Use Your car, Like on German Autobahn to have 600Hp is nice but as soon as Coners play a roll. Give me the 116hp Citroen Saxo and I have a great Time ^^
One of my favorite slow cars is the golf rally car you’ll find in h2 fwd. it has just enough power to not feel like you have to push it on the stages with lots of elevation and elevation changes yet still manages to have a great sound
Dude. I was writing this massive message about how I really agree with what you’re saying and UA-cam crashed! I’ll go again. I realised I never learnt how to properly drive, because I only drove high hp cars on no hesi or drift cars. I went and grabbed the 54hp Daihatsu Mira mod for assetto Corsa and challenged family members to a touge sprint for the best time. The mod is seriously cool and taught me many things. It also sounds good and feels great. I’d highly recommend checking it out, it’s easily become one of my favourite cars. 3 Cylinders are something else😂 Learning all drive types will really help with not only your driving ability, but also your style, finesse and capabilities with all cars. Fwd cars can be a lot of fun, and really low power cars are such a great way of re-centering your brain from driving the bigger toys all the time. They’re not only great for refreshing you’re brain, but I truely believe that they can teach you a lot more in regards to car control and how to react in each situation due to being slower and seeing it happen slower. It trains you up for when you are pushing the limits and when you are in a lot faster car that is more equipped for it. Great video dude, keep it up!
Absolutely. I have a H-Pattern shifter and clutch which is really enjoyable to use in the older cars. I love the robust handling of the Opel Kadett. Really confidence inspiring for a rear wheel drive.
I love the slower cars, it helps you get a feel for some of the tracks in WRC as well as driving the different drive types so that you get used to the handling.
When i first started out ofc i went to the modern and group B cars, i eased my self down to group A and then slowly lower. The slower cars i chose the more fun i had and i built my way back up. If im ever fustrated and driving bad i go back to the slower cars and just have fun chucking them around
My favourite memory from any racing game ever... was in Gran Turismo 2, beating 600hp race tuned cars in... a 176hp Ford Ka. Because sure they were faster, but I rarely needed to brake for corners and I carried momentum for days. I always have a penchant for "bad" and "slow" cars.
Extremely well put together video mate. As someone who is a massive rally fan of all games and platforms, this is such an honest and great take. I hold and used to hold many world records on many rally sim games like wrc 10, dirt 2.0, RBR ect, and whilst my usual class A cars, or modern rally1/2 cars are great and a real workout, threes something infinitely more charming and fun about flowing with the roads in small, underpowered vehichles. Instead of sweating it out wrenching the wheel and trying to make micro adjustments whilst full beans is a great experience, these small form factor boxes are just so much more then what they appear.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I honestly find that for both rallying and circuit racing, I really don't enjoy the absolute fastest classes all that much. It's the slow and medium stuff for me, all the way.
My happiest drives in Dirt Rally 2.0 were the Fiat 131 and three old Opels (Kadett C GT/E, Ascona, Manta). There's something about their maneuverability and power-to-weight ratio that makes them so damn satisfying.
Thanks. I love driving fast cars but there is always the nice feeling driving a MX-5 over AC in Tourist getting closer to that 9 minute flat with standard settings. Or at LAC with a GT86 drifting like an butter over hot metal.
sure, I'm drawn to the fastest cars but everytime I join WRC3 class I'm reminded of how bad I am and soon religated back to 200hp junior (challenger) category haha
When I read the title, I thought about it being about real life, where I do agree. Small car with little speed is more fun in traffic than some supercar.
wow, it's not everyday i hear someone mention maluch online, and especially not in regards to racing lol. it's a lovely car, my familly used to own one when i was a kid. the car is also rear engined, and the engine is air cooled.
Lancia Fulvia, i absolutely love this car. Keep it flat, use the break to slow down and shift the weight, then use the light rear to drift around the corner. I always find driving it like that super satisfying!
I like the slower cars more too. They are easier to drive with on controller, and I can set some good times on time trial. I don't have WRC I have not brought or played it. only on dirt rally 2.0. The mini is my fav
Bang on, dude. I'm heavy on the WRC (Generations etc.) side but I had the same experience, had a lot of fun redoing all the tracks with Alpine A110, Abarth 131 and the like, on technical tracks you're still actively driving and tackling even with such old small cars. Very fun indeed, a much appreciated experience.
Back in the days, i was driving the wheels off from "japaniese Cooper", k11 Micra Kit Car in Rally Championship. It was literally the weakest car in the game, but i managed to win each rally and whole championship in general classification, ahead of 2 liter Kit Cars. That was fun little game. There's always something satisfying in doing amazing times with small, weak "shopcarts".
Been playing EA wrc these past couple of weeks...I saw your video other video about DR2.0 and damn, I'm going to go home tonight to pop that bad boy back in. Scotland course with the good ole Impreza 95'. Something I hate about EAwrc is the replay cameras, the feel stiff and zoomed in too much, kind of like Gran Turismo. It makes the cars look like they are on a different plane and they added the track and surroundings after. not sure if i explained myself correctly but hopefully im not alone in this. great videos, subbed
I've been enjoying WRC as well (especially since v1.5) but I still love DR2.0 a lot and it's well worth playing still. Good choice, the Perth stages are awesome and the classic 555 scoobie is a staple. Thanks for subbing!
I really like the Hillman Avenger from the H2 RWD Class. Never heard of it before, but fell in love with it, after it got me my first WRC Career win in Sardegna at the first try with it. Almost all my wins are thanks to this Car
To me, going for the fastest cars at all times is the trait of children or sweaty people that race in their sims using helmets and gloves. To me, the most fun level of performance to drive is something around the performance of an EVO X. I like slower cars, i like faster cars, up to a point. i hate hyper cars, then i like race cars again. I'd much rather drive a subaru WRX than a bugatti chiron that is too fast for its handling and braking, completely unbalanced performance. For super cars, the sweet spot is something like mid 90's to early 2000s super cars. My favorite non f50-GT ferrari, for instance, is the f430. Of course, it's always more fun to drive models that were available with manual shifters.
This is why I prefer to live in the past: not just for wild beasts of Group B, but also for crazy variety of touring and sport cars that used to rally. Compared to that, WRC feels almost like spec racing, with how uniform cars feel in performance and handling. Other than R-GT class in DR2, modern sports cars get no love in rally games.
James Hunt had an Austin A35. Chris Harris has a 2CV. James May has a Fiat Panda (and that Crosley...) Enzo Ferrari and Steve McQueen had Minis. My wife's Polo is pretty rapid (shhhh).
Honestly some of the most fun I’ve had in racing games is from driving the worst cars possible for as long as I can until it breaks down 😅 honestly though something about fighting not just the road but your car as well is actually way more fun than it sounds I’d take it over having some ridiculously expensive supercar that’ll just get wrapped around a tree anyway.
I have a soft spot for escort rs1600 in dirt rally 2.0. High revving engine, rear wheel drive and old school chassis make it challenging but really fun
my personal favourite car to drive is that lancia stratos and others like it. it so fun to balance those cars through the corners, and the rwd mid engine layout fits my driving style perfectly. they rotate so easely wich for me makes them easier to drive than front heavy fwd cars.
Recently bought the me WRC using a wheel and pedals... Ad when I'm driving wrc or group B it's a sweaty and stressful experience..... Where as Driving a 16v 2 L front wheel drive mk2 golf is soooo Fun
I wish there was a full rally calendar so I could spend more time and more stages, 14 -17 per rally, with my 70s car, especially FWD as I drive it in real life so it feels natural. Going really fast in 70s car feels way better then doing it in Audi Quatro (you get what I'm saying)
Even for road racing I'd argue, it's sometimes fun to take a break from the madness of LMP1 or F1 cars and try something just a little slower like GT4s or Formula Ford. My personal favourite class of car to race at the moment is GT3 which isn't slow by any means but isn't the fastest out there not featuring any aerodynamic insanity and I had a blast getting into some stuff in between like LMP2 or LMP3s for racing leagues, while I'd say yeah these are fast cars, they aren't the fastest you can get and that makes them tons of fun
One crucial detail you forgot to mention about the Polski Fiat 126p is that it's engine is mounted in the rear, so it has RWD with a good portion of the weight on the rear axle.
Wow I did NOT expect to see or hear about the Polski Fiat in this video, awesome! 😂 I also really enjoy the far less powerful cars in games, especially in rally games but I don’t enjoy FWD cars almost at all!
Slow cars arent just fun. they are quite useful. 1. They are slower so they are easir to control, and better for newbies. 2. they are letting you know track better before sitting in something more powerful. 3. its investing you to a track, cause if u set pb u work hours on in mini, and realized its a slowest car is making you wonder, how actually fast u can be on that track. Like seriously, taking other car and beating that pb immiditely feels so much better, then beating same pb but with same car. As kid i was rivalizing with my dad, in my beloved Colin McRae Rally 2005, and we were choosing tracks, mini and go for pb... and when we decided we wantr better pb, we just go for faster carsa andthen fun begins, cause we had diffrent ideas which car would be seriously the best. like i was more of a guy to have more horse power under my mask, and my dad was more of balanced guy with a thing for all wheel drive. Thats how i love racing and rally competitions to this day. Im even playing this type of games still, and im almost 26 years old. Damn. Thank You Father for making me interested in racing.
its more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. Lately I got back into sim racing and I love my low powered options, mini being one of my favourites. When I played RBR for the 1st time I chose fiat 126p immidietely (being polish might have influenced my choice a little too). Other than the really low power cars i tend to look for options around 200 hp, they seem perfect. I cannot utilize the modern age cars in their full potential at all, its just a safety hazard lol. Meanwhile lower powered cars are just fun cause you can push them way more and not end up on a tree (although having 0 skills I still end up a minute before the top guys)
Peugeot 309 from EA WRC but it's even slightly too slow and underpowered compared to others in the H2FWD class and historically this car should be on par with the Golf for power.
Not as slow as the mini but I love the 240Z and I can't think of better car to learn RWD on. Its long wheel base and modest power makes learning counter steer and throttle balance compared to say an escort mk 2 or the Stratos.
I mean, it's not even remotely sim racing, but during my stint with Forza Horizon I was always drawn to the shittiest cars in the roster. Yeeting a Datsun 510 into a downhill rally stage? Fun! Doing the obligatory "all around the map" race with a 1st generation Golf? Yes please.
"they're the best so they're driven by the best" the biggest bullshit going, curtesy of america. the one driving the shitbox fast is the actually best driver, speed is easy, fast is hard.

The Alpine is excellent. It feels great to drive and I also think it's a very good looking car, which never hurts!
And Michele Mouton drove one.
second that. I began my Dirt Rally career in the A110. Great car.
People seem to forget that irl drivers start in the slow classes, sharpen and train their skills and then go into the faster classes afterwards. Most people just want to jump into the fastest class and try to drive like the pros only to crash into everything.
Same reason that most flight-simmers will jump into a 747 before trying anything else, then moan about why its so hard to fly it ;)
i genuinely love the slow fwd cars carrying weight feels so fun
peugeot 205 gti is my fav right now it feels the most balanced in terms of having at least some speed when needed
@@slof69nice choice, the H2 cars are very enjoyable.
I love the fwd lancia in dirt rally 2 because it sounds like a swarm of bees and the lift off oversteer is so satisfying when you have back to back left and right corners
The Fulvia is great, I agree. It was also the very first car I drove in Dirt Rally so it has some sentimental value for me.
try the 205 fwd in spain the chassis is sooo amazing it just makes me go to heaven
As a dude from poland im actually very happy to see a polski fiat 126p.
The 126p is used in alot of driving industries.

You are preaching to the choir when it comes to me. I love slow FWD cars.
One of my favorite slow cars is the golf rally car you’ll find in h2 fwd. it has just enough power to not feel like you have to push it on the stages with lots of elevation and elevation changes yet still manages to have a great sound
The video ticked all the boxes for me:
Dirt Rally 2.0
Richard Burns Rally (RSM)
And even Radiohead

Thank you!
totally agree! feel like so many people dont even give slower cars a chance because they think lmao why go slow if you can go fast
You learn a circuit better in a Beetle than in an F1 car. And i really mean it.

Yeah that was a fun ride, and had what felt like the comfiest suspension of any 'race' car I've ever experienced in a sim 😆

i guess should go back to ultra wide resolution. it's beautiful

In DR2.0, Fiat 131 is an amazing drift machine!!!
I would have liked and subscribed if you talked about the perfection that is the Lancia Fulvia.
Nissan micra k11 is perfect example of small slow car category, but i don't know if its in any rally game
In the non-rally Racing games i would rather take a 250hp 90's Touring Car than a 500+hp GT3
im happy that you like the polish fiat as a polish guys
Peugeot 309 from EA WRC but it's even slightly too slow and underpowered compared to others in the H2FWD class and historically this car should be on par with the Golf for power.
Commenting for algo. This is a great video tho!
Not as slow as the mini but I love the 240Z and I can't think of better car to learn RWD on. Its long wheel base and modest power makes learning counter steer and throttle balance compared to say an escort mk 2 or the Stratos.
I enjoy slower cars a lot. I spend less time braking, more time enjoying the ride.
It's the kind of car you could do really good, independent journalism in. All gas, no brakes.
@@DiariesOfABadDriver You reminded me about Daihatsu Midget in Gran Turismo.
POLAND MENTIONED!!!
Nice video, what app has the Mini & Fiat please?
Thank you! Do you mean which game? The Mini was in EA WRC and the fiat was in Richard Burns Rally (RSF mod).
My favorite in Dirt 2.0 is the Datsun.
In wrc i mostly drive h2 rwd or h3rwd and from the h3 category i never drived the escort but even from group b rwd i chose the porsche all the time
there's a reason the ae86 is legendary
i dont play realistic rally games but i do play art of rally and group 4 is my fav
I'll take fun over fast any day.
The only way I could beat Masters was in the H1 fwd class lol
I like most cars in DR2 but that stupid lil red shopping cart bothers me to no end.
I now want a rally car that has swivel wheels
Nova sport in wrc is my fav car then rally1 cars for me
I mean, it's not even remotely sim racing, but during my stint with Forza Horizon I was always drawn to the shittiest cars in the roster. Yeeting a Datsun 510 into a downhill rally stage? Fun! Doing the obligatory "all around the map" race with a 1st generation Golf? Yes please.
I actually prefer "slow car fast" to super cars.
Lancia fulvia, 80s f1 cars.
Love the Fulvia, though I'm not sure I would consider 80s F1 cars slow, they're pretty monstrous, especially in a straight line!
@@DiariesOfABadDriver Yeah totally true. They are underrated as well though imo
basically: there's a reason people like driving shitboxes
I like "slow" cars. Driving fast car with giant engine is like edging in sex.
Ahh, the Polski Fiat 126p, it might not be the best looking, nor the fastest, but it's got bad mileage and breaks a lot.
POLSKA GUROM!11 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
Fiat 126p isna great car thst motorized Poland. Was 1st car in my and many more households 🙃
polski maluch! jeah
Game doesn't have colin mcrea subaru vivio rxr
0/10
"they're the best so they're driven by the best" the biggest bullshit going, curtesy of america. the one driving the shitbox fast is the actually best driver, speed is easy, fast is hard.
Noice!
I usually ask for ice specifically, but to each their own!
