Compliments to the folks who develop the engines and software, as well. I wonder if one day they won't need to learn the real thing. Sims will get better and race cars could be driver-less, piloted like drones. The VR environment would be 360* onboard cameras. There definitely should emerge a new racing league, for sure.
ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY
The fact you were told by the instructor if you done this before, that is a real achievement to you, Jimmer. I know this was commented before, but it needed to be said, more times than once. Your future is as bright as a LED lamp, my friend. Entertaining SIM Racer, Retro Racer, big boye and absolutely ascended. Many could wish a life like yours, mate.
Jimmy. You are a talent waiting to shine. With the right opportunities and a little training. You can be a professional racing driver with ease. Seems you’ve already started your journey. Best of luck!
It isn't exactly like that. Yes, the skills you learn in sims will carry over to real life after some short practice. Like knowing how to take a line, knowing how the car responds to certain inputs or just simple things like shifting gears. But a person who has no other experiences with driving other than simracing would rarely just be able to jump into a car and be fast let alone drive it without any instructions at all. You kind of need to have experiences from real life as well for that to be the case.
I actually did find myself perfectly counter steering an unexpected slide in my NA miata when I first got it 4 months ago. It felt great. It definitely played a part in the fact that I got in the car and drove it manually without any major problems. Got it smooth within a few days after never driving stick before. I did underestimate the feeling of using a clutch because of my t500rs pedals not really being able to simulate it that much. And the gated shifter feel was different than I thought it would be. Since I did that first slide I'm throwing it around hairpins all the time now.
As has been stated already, it doesn’t make you good per day, it just gives you a preconceived idea that you can base your experience off and allows you to adapt your current knowledge

I'm a bit surprised the guy didn't assume that Jimmy was a dirt rally player when he asked if he's done it before if the event was sponsored by dirt rally?
@@rabidbasher He did say "too much time on that PlayStation?" so I think he knew that Jimmy was a gamer, but he probably thought that Jimmy had still driven in such conditions before.
@@pete3816 I'm not saying it is; I'm saying I would think that the instructor would assume the attendees would be dirt rally players given that the event was sponsored by dirt rally, that's all
Reguarding co-drivers, hearing "As you are" or "Keep going" over and over again, or just 'in succession', is a good way to realize you're doing perfectly well, good driving sir
when you do the experiences in the future, can you mention how the real thing compares to the sim equiv and what the differences are. maybe drive a car similar to what you drove in the games etc after and give us a comparison? i just think it would be a nice touch as a lot of sim racers have never experienced real thing to have a comparison
I can say that it is really hard to compare the real thing and a sim, especialy without spending days, weeks and months doing both. In a real life rally car you can feel the grip, feel the road and feel the forces pushing the car. When you get a ride from a professional for the first time it is absolutely mad how much you can feel the road even from the passenger seat. I know there are some rigs that have g-force chassis and other stuff like that, but I don't think it is even possible to capture the real thing and make it into a sim.
When I race on a sim it's mostly to memorize a track and start to plan my braking points. Other than that I don't find a sim and a real racecar very similar. They are really two different activities for me.
Well done Jimmy, I can see you really enjoyed it. You stepped up the cinematography on the video as well. It really shows. I was just waiting for the instructor to say "He's still there", lol... Lucky boy indeed
Excellent! I took my father to Phil Price's Rally School 10 years ago. I booked dirty escorts for a woodland weekend, but got rallying instead. He and his people were ace. He said that I wouldn't listen to him, and would follow the wrong line on the hill. He was right. A fabulous day, and a great video here, good work Jimmer.
Man, I'm so happy for you. Your hard work is bringing you these moments. Driving a rally car is a dream of mine, I hope someday I get to drive one as good as you did.
Your hard work entertaining us, is now paying off for you with memories like this. It’s heartwarming to see people do well in life. Long may it continue. 👍🏼
Congrats on the big start to 2019. Drove a real life GT4 racecar. Drove a real life rally car. And hit 200k subscribers. Awesome stuff - living the dream.
9:18 Reminds me of the Top Gear episode where Sir Jackie Stewart tries to teach James May to drive fast.. More power ,more power, more power, full power.. Awesome video. Looks like you had lots of fun!
Great stuff Jimmy.... I used to live not far From Phil's rally school... did some driving with him 17 years ago. He had mk2 Escorts back then to learn in. It was great fun having Phil as my co-driver belting round the rally stage in a race-prepared Focus. Phil and his wife are lovely people.
nice one Codemasters, glad you Jimmer out there - one of most entertaining sim streamers who genuinely enjoys the opportunity. Hope to see more collaborations in the future.
You should try and get to Norway or Sweden for a class, Ryan Champion one of the test drivers for Dirt 2.0 is is up at www.belowzeroicedriving.com in Sweden and some other British guys runs this one in Norway www.icedriver.com. So addictive, i run my Impreza STI on the lake with rally studs, so much fun!
For most people, I would call them lucky. In your case, you deserve it, it’s your reward for doing what you do and it’s good to see you get the opportunities that you’ve started getting.
So you just learned how to drive with the throtle.. that was cool! When I was learning rally for playing dirt rally I saw videos from pros doing it and they barely hit the brakes.. my driving improved a LOT when I understood how to keep the car balanced correctly
Nice one Jimmy. I did a few days tuition at Silverstone Rally school a while back, an experience I’ll never forget driving a rally spec mk2 escort. Sideways and smiling nirvana 👍
Instructor: "Have you done something like this before" Jimmy: "Nope, first time" (restrains grin) Thousands of hours of seat time in a real seat, with a real wheel and real pedals at real forces with real feedback counts for a lot. Good job Jimmy. Solid driving, you did yourself proud.
Excellent stuff, Jimmer. I'll show this to any nay-sayer (I know a few) who claims that sim racing doesn't contribute to someone getting a better feel for driving/racing IRL, "because it's not the same". Sure, in some ways it isn't the same, but it will develop swifter reactions and increase the ability to think and look ahead, something that's essential for driving in the real world. Anyway, I'm rambling. Keep up the good work!
I did this as well. Amazing day, highly recommend Phil Price Rally School to anyone interested in driving. Also worth noting that if you do the whole day then you get to have a go at driving the rally stage where Jimmy had a passenger run. Insanely fun!
Hey Jimmy. Stella job! I done 2 rally drives when I was younger. I got the bug very early on. I remember asking my parents to stay up till early morning to watch the group B cars go past my house going in-between stages. Too expensive a sport for me to take up as a career. But I'd love to. Always have! Great vids mate!
you are my biggest role model Jimmy. Because of you i have a real hobby (sim racing) and i even started racing kart. Thank you jimmy! And hello from Germany 😄
Great video. nice experience every one of us dream to have. The dirtier that Subaru gets the more beautiful it is in my eyes. Yet the video lacks the sim racing aspect to it and it is a bit so narcissistic focusing on you having fun rather than giving the viewers anything useful.
The funny thing is that in Norway, learning to drive on snow or ice is mandatory when getting the drivers license. The tracks look a lot like the one in the beginning of this video. In summertime they'll put oil on the asphalt to make it slippery. The reason of course - is that winter driving in Norway consists of going sideways through roundabouts half the time, especially if you have RWD.
I used to be a mechanic at a Subaru dealer and over the winter they sent a couple of our advisors and parts guys to a rally school in connecticut (I think) for a long weekend as a promo from Yokohama. I was beyond jealous because I've always wanted to do that.
I just wished for the instructors to say "IN IN IN IN IN IN IN IN IN" instead of just "We're going in now, yeah?" to keep the synergy with how they guide through the track haha Loved it
Nice - not jealous at all! I had 2 Scoobies, a WRX blobeye Wagon and at the end a black STi Bugeye Saloon (which was by far my favourite) with 400bhp and blue tint HIDs, it looked awesome at night and was an absolute animal to drive.
I think "You've done this before" may be the greatest compliment a Sim Racer can get IRL.
Exactly
Same thing applies to flight simmers. Feels good, man! :D
I got the same compliment in a driving course thing I did.
Compliments to the folks who develop the engines and software, as well. I wonder if one day they won't need to learn the real thing. Sims will get better and race cars could be driver-less, piloted like drones. The VR environment would be 360* onboard cameras. There definitely should emerge a new racing league, for sure.

Nice - not jealous at all! I had 2 Scoobies, a WRX blobeye Wagon and at the end a black STi Bugeye Saloon (which was by far my favourite) with 400bhp and blue tint HIDs, it looked awesome at night and was an absolute animal to drive.
