I recommend watching the whole video (because a lot of his notes are interesting), but for my own reference I'm making a note of his final choices. Feel free to also pull out your phone and use it for a quick look when you're in game. 80's rally - Ford RS200 90's rally - Mitsubishi Evo 6 Classic rally - Lancia Stratos Cross raid - Laffite G-Tec Modern rally - Ford Fiesta R5 MKII Pre runners - Audi AI (Ford F-150 Raptor is amazing on dirt) Rally cross - Mini Cooper Rally GT - Porsche 911 Super lite - Exomotive Exocet (Speedcar Xtrem is amazing on ice) Unlimited - Jimco Unlimited Class 1
Great video! Playing Dirt 5 with it being a PS+ game this month. I’ve followed your recommendations and found myself winning every race lol. My favourite has to be the 80’s Rally - Ford RS200. Love the retro look, it sounds great and feels so fast compared to a lot of other cars in the game.
@@itsmeJUMBO Your list is really good, those cars are the most competitive (or second best) on every track. On the other hand, it's really satisfying to fight for the victory online driving an underdog. For example, the Renault Clio, which normally is awful to drive, can be extremely fast at one or two tracks. Oh, and also a not so competitive, but good handling car can be a good choice for online races, as you can resist impacts or avoid problems easily.
Every Dirt 5 player should watch it, was really helpful. Thanks for your work man, Appreciate it! Also, for the 90's rally: tho I am team Evo, the Subaru is quite good too so picking any of the two will do just fine.
Well made video!! Looking back on this game I think it's clear the balancing between the cars is really weird. As a game designer myself I'm just really puzzled by their choices for this game tbh. You have one "prodigy" car in each category that's so good there's no reason to even pick any of the other cars, just save up your cash and buy it whenever you can, which you don't even have to worry about because this is one of the easiest games I've ever played. I think it would've been way better if each car in a category has a special strength that makes it worth using for specific events/tracks: Car A is really fast but lacks in handling, so it's great for tracks with long straights. Car B is great on ice but isn't that great on dirt, so it's useful on ice tracks. Car C works wonders for corners but really lags behind in top speed, so pick this one for tight courses. Car D is great for dirt, but doesn't have strengths on ice. Car E is balanced overall, it's good for tarmac and tracks with a fair mixture of straights and corners. And I would make sure the player can really feel the difference between each car, currently the cars in Dirt 5 are too similar and I barely noticed a difference when playing as them tbh! Just my 2 cents, peace ✌
After watching this video, I played a few races with various cars on various tracks investigating the cars' performance etc. Every car feels quite different and I think it depends on how a particular car resonates with the player who's driving it. It so happens that I can race almost every car for the podium if not the win 😊 just feel the car you're driving and be cautious of the terrain you're racing on and it'll be fine 👍👍
Just got this game today and have been using the electric buggy in the super lite class. I thought it was pretty good and expected it to place higher, but will definitely try the Exocet.
Thanks so much for telling be the best cars! Great video just next car game could you please add the name of the car using subtitles it would be much easier for me, but you earned yourself a sub! Thanks for the tips!
I’ve been playing DIRT 5 since I got for my birthday six days ago and I am absolutely *_in love._* The only issue I have really is with all of the RWD cars, especially in the Rally GT category - they all want to spin despite proper throttle/gear control. I can’t push the cars to their limits because quite frankly they don’t even want to grip to *_anything at all._* You’d hear the wheels in the modern cars struggling for grip even on *_straights_* and it’s by far the most frustrating thing especially during online races because one small bump and the whole thing goes sideways. Not sure if throttle input is more controlled on the PS5 due to the adaptive triggers, but you’re better off racing with TC at low if you want to push the car without losing too much time and speed. On the topic of RWD, it’s the reason why I dislike driving the pickups despite them being monsters. I would’ve driven the DBX but holy shit the car’s acceleration is basically zero to nothing. For the Peugeot 208 Maxi, the only thing I dislike about the car is how unstable the rear-end is for a 4WD car alongside it’s drastic lift-off understeer. I started driving the Cosworth because of that. Now for the Stratos, while I agree that it’s the top car in the Classic Rally category, the car’s suspension is very unstable - it loves bouncing around (really evident if you set the camera shake to high in the driving aids submenu). You need to be careful picking your line especially in mountainous tracks (like Lion’s Gate or The Redeemer) because one small uneven jump and the car basically gets sent to the shadow realm. It’s the reason why I started using the 911 SC/RS instead. Also! What makes the Audi AI even better is that you can control the rear wheels! Most time trial records have drivers with the same car and I’m not mad, really. The car looks cool *_and_* performs like it! And yes! I totally agree with the RS200! It’s my most favorite rally car next to the quattro S1. The car handles and performs like a dream and I’m glad we can use its iconic livery. Kinda wish we have Hoonigan liveries tho - it would’ve fit perfectly especially at Gymkhana events. That said, love the video! I know a lot of people dislike DIRT 5, but I don’t.
Thanks for the comment, it's good to see someone else's thoughts on this game 👍👍 I agree the RWD cars are very strange to drive on the tarmac, I'm not sure why it's like that either 🤷♂️🤷♂️ it's been a while since I played it but I don't remember the adaptive triggers much for the throttle but you could definitely feel it with the brake!! The DBX is so disappointing I was expecting a lot more from that too, the Cosworth is great, I enjoyed driving that but I did prefer the EVO VI and you're right the Stratos can be a bit of a handful but like you said the Porsche is also great in that class too!! Personally I think DIRT 5 is a really fun game and is great to chill out and play (on controller anyway, I don't have a wheel) but my biggest problem with the game is once you have done all the races in career there isn't much else to do. Online really isn't very good at all which is disappointing and there is no incentive to play the career again!!
@@itsmeJUMBO seems like DIRT 5 follows Driveclub’s physics because of Evolution Studios. RWD cars in that game drive similarly like how they do in DIRT 5 (slippery). I have an incentive on replaying the career! At least in Red Zone since after finishing the last race (with AJ), Bruno and AJ will then appear in races events in that chapter. I’ve had a blast racing with them two in Stampedes, Rally Raids, and Land Rushes. Bruno’s seems to be really dedicated on racing because he’s always on the podium. AJ’s lagging behind tho but sometimes I give him a push because why not? He’s my mentor. But yeah, I do other things to make DIRT 5 fun for me. Right now I’m doing time trials because online tends to get… well… pushy (literally).
no idea, I assume it would be random, could be something like stupid like whoever is hosting the event though 🤷♂️🤷♂️ sorry I can't be more help than that
@@NoahL-em6ug I haven't got anything planned at the moment as the F1 content is doing well. But just out of interest what sort of things would you like to see on DIRT 5!!
The question is are you good enough? How fast can you be? Speed is not everything. Winning races is about overtaking, blocking, drifting, finding the best racing line. I can win by FIAT131. No problem☺️ I can win by every single modern car. Winning by VW Golf is most fun! Thanks for the car ranking list, though. Peace✌️
It's one that I made from the liveries they give you for the Stratos!! I just changed the colours to red and green and put some decals on it, so it half looked like the iconic Stratos livery!! 👍👍
Like for the gymkhana events or just in general?? It would also be hard to say as it's more down to personal preference and how you like the car to handle!! 👍👍
😂😂 ah I liked it as its really stable thought the corners, and that's where I could get past all the drivers. But its all down to driver preference I guess, Which one do you use/like the most for pre runners??

80's rally - Ford RS200
90's rally - Mitsubishi Evo 6
Classic rally - Lancia Stratos
Cross raid - Laffite G-Tec
Modern rally - Ford Fiesta R5 MKII
Pre runners - Audi AI (Ford F-150 Raptor is amazing on dirt)
Rally cross - Mini Cooper
Rally GT - Porsche 911
Super lite - Exomotive Exocet (Speedcar Xtrem is amazing on ice)
Unlimited - Jimco Unlimited Class 1
👍👍

Lol I saw the thumbnail and thought “I’ll scroll past” and then realized Jumbo uploaded😂
😂😂 It's a very bright thumbnail!!
Ahahah 4 BRUUUH in 5 seconds... Now we are talking! Great video! Keep up the good work!
hahaha I couldn't get BRUH's in the last couple of videos so had to make up for it!! 🤣🤣
Great work mate! This must have taken ages - surely one of the top ranked in the game for some of the circuits?
Thanks Mate!!👍👍 Yeah did take awhile to do it but was fun to play the game!!
Definitely at the top/ close to the top on the some of the tracks!! 🙈🙈
I've found some of the less competitive cars can be a secret weapon on certain tracks
yeah tbf I only did a few tracks, so like you said on some tracks some other cars might be better 👍👍

Awesome list- I love this game atm, perfect summer vibes.
This video is perfect thanks so much for putting in the work for us
No problem glad it helped!! 👍👍
great video! thank you for putting in the time and effort so that others wouldn’t have to. keep up the great videos :)
No problem, glad it helped!!
Amazing vid bro, keep uptading this class of videos please, we appreciate your work doing this, thx 🎉
😉😉👊👊
Just got this game today and have been using the electric buggy in the super lite class. I thought it was pretty good and expected it to place higher, but will definitely try the Exocet.
It's very stable in its handling which is good but it just too heavy to be quick, if you get a chance try the Exocet and see what you think!! 👍👍
For 90's rally i really prefer the ford escort because somehow i can complete all tracks on the game without using the brake or the handbrake
Another great video thanks ❤️😊
Thanks Mate!! 👍👍
Testing all cars on almost every track. Thats the largest tour i ve ever seen.
Thanks for the video, I really enjoy your work, very nice as well! :D
Thanks mate!! Glad you enjoyed the video!! 👊👊
When Jumbo uploads, I like before I watch
😍😍👊👊
i like dirt 3 and dirt rally 2.0 more but its also a relaxing game. If you want a hyper realistic damage model and like rallying try beamng
👍👍
I really liked Dirt 2.0. I haven't tried BeamNG, its on my to play list!!
Thanks so much for telling be the best cars! Great video just next car game could you please add the name of the car using subtitles it would be much easier for me, but you earned yourself a sub! Thanks for the tips!
That was my fave when the Impreza was second to the lancer evo

That was a great video and helped me a lot thanks I dropped a like👍👍👍

Anymore dirt content?

@@itsmeJUMBO Just gameplay. Is still love the F1 stuff. Keep it up!!
@@NoahL-em6ug 👍👍 Thanks man!!
What I’ve learnt is that on most of these you can still win online with the lower cars (although it is harder), but the Laffite is OP.
Nice vidoe 🤟🏾🤟🏾
Thanks mate!! 👊👊
What is this game on (which consoles and stuff) and how much is it
for xbox its free with the gamepass and on the others im not sure
I got it on the PS store a couple of weeks ago for the PS5 (its also available for the PS4) for £29.99 as it had 50% off!! 👍👍
Whait you have 3k subs?!
These videos are litterly the best😇
Thanks mate!! 👊👊 Glad you enjoyed the video!!
At 1:00 I love the color scheme of the car
can never go wrong with Blue and Yellow 👍👍
Honestly I love the Evo in the Modern Rally. Get me on a Norway track and I will FLY.
yeah its a great car!!
Have you tried it on a wheel it handles so bad the force feedback is terrible as well I suppose it was probably build for the pad
No I don't have a wheel (will get one at some point!!) but that doesn't surprise me as it's definitely more of an arcade racer than a sim!!
I watched the whole video even tho I don't play this game 🤣
But it is interesting
haha great work!! But if you ever do play this game, you will know what the best cars are!! 👍👍
Wich is better, Macan or Prodrive??
In my opinion the golf gti is incredible
I love dirt 5 and my favourite car is Ford mustang and I’m a bit sad it’s last on it’s category
Yeah same I'm Mustang Fan boy too 😥😥
My favorite cars are ford bronco and ford rs200
what is the best car in general?
Hard to say but I do really like the Ford RS200 and the Mini Cooper RX 👍👍
I bought two cars and I can't use them online or career or playground SOMEONE HELP ME
The race has to be for the class that the cars you bought are in. Hope that helps 👍👍
The question is are you good enough? How fast can you be? Speed is not everything. Winning races is about overtaking, blocking, drifting, finding the best racing line. I can win by FIAT131. No problem☺️ I can win by every single modern car. Winning by VW Golf is most fun! Thanks for the car ranking list, though. Peace✌️
How do u get this Lancia livery
Stick shift makes the game better than automatic shift and turn off the traction control
5:41 how did you get that livery for the stratos?
It's one that I made from the liveries they give you for the Stratos!! I just changed the colours to red and green and put some decals on it, so it half looked like the iconic Stratos livery!! 👍👍
@@itsmeJUMBO ah ok thanks which pattern is it?
@@daewoogamingjapan1157 I can't remember and I don't have DIRT 5 installed at the moment to check. sorry mate
no problem
Best car for drifting in each category?
Like for the gymkhana events or just in general??
It would also be hard to say as it's more down to personal preference and how you like the car to handle!! 👍👍
R.i.p big black
Ford RS200 is the absolute best!
agreed!! 💪💪
I don’t see what’s wrong with that turbo squeak it sounds so nitpicky
Is this Mumbo Jumbo?
😂😂 unfortunately not, I'm just another JUMBO
First
🙌🙌
It hurts when you lose every race, watch this video for tips and then realize, that you're already using the top cars :):
hello mate 👋👋
Anyone knows best cars including dlc's? Please let me know. Curious!
idk how you ranked the audi 1st for the pre runners its so bad
😂😂 ah I liked it as its really stable thought the corners, and that's where I could get past all the drivers. But its all down to driver preference I guess, Which one do you use/like the most for pre runners??
What do you use in that cause yeah it's easy to turn at zero miles per hour 😂
Can you put subtitles in spanish?
Thanks
I'll see what I can do but I can't promise anything 👍👍
interesting...i use the mustang and i beat dad that had aston martin
ah don't tell your dad but your just better than him!! 😂😂👍👍
