Slower but Better: 50 Years of Off-road Supercars
Porsches were winning dirt races in the 1950s. Ferrari once scored a WRC podium. Off-road supercars aren't just a new trend, they've been around for decades, in off-road racing like Dakar. With the end of Group B in the 80s, off-road supercars became the high-speed toys we see today, and their popularity is rising. In this video, we take a look at some of the history of off-road sports cars and supercars, to see why these aren't just a recent trend or dumb gimmick. Off-road supercars bring back fun!
In this video, host James Freeman (@car-nivores) describes the Lamborghini Sterrato, Porsche Safari, 953, 959, and 911 Dakar, Ferrari 308 GTB Gr4, Mega! Track, Local Motors Rally Fighter, Ariel Nomad, and Ford Mustang Raptor.

30% of new cars have Continuously Variable Transmissions or CVTs. Let’s figure out why they’ve become widespread, how CVTs work, and why they’re not very good! CVTs are used by major manufacturers like Buick, Chevrolet, Honda, Hyundai, Infiniti, Kia, Lexus, Mini, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota. CVTs are simpler, cheaper, should save fuel, and should improve acceleration. That’s why a CVT...

Holy shit! Justin is guest hosting this week! Edit after watching the first 30 seconds: I stand corrected
This isn't donut. Wait, you have never been in an F1 car! But hell ya, you know, how to lay down some info.
Im definitely rooting for you😅
I thought I'm high or something 😂, turns out I'm not
My brain is in meltdown mode - like wtf... WTF... Are we sure this isn't The Parent trap... THERE ARE TWO OF THEM!!!
Powershit is the worstiest of universe
What happened to this channel
My CVT in my Corolla has a gear😏
When you get your Justin from Wish
Justin went to Hollywood, his brother went to Britain! :D
Lol, this was trippy. Great job James.
I'll give this new Overdrive a chance, but I think it's only fair to announce the changes properly . If Scott is done with the channel, if you are the new owner, it's better to tell us honestly - it will be better for the channel in the long run. Gotta build trust with your audience.
man this channel just isn't the same without callum and will
For a second i thought this was a Donut crossover. But this Justin was a bit off xDDD
i, as a farmer, needs an off-road capable car. Probably more capable than these (still too low). So i'm "stuck" buying suvs and pickups. i had a heck of a "rally stage" this week coming back from the farm. 30 kilometers of slidy and/or deep mud, sand and clay, with so much rain that some parts were deeply flooded. i was in an amarok and i had a blast making my way through the "dirt" stage of my commute that day. I also have a mitsubishi outlander gt, which has a more fun (240hp v6) engine and better handling, but i can't really toss as much in the dirt because of the much shorter suspension travel, which will bottom out if it catch ANY air or more severe bump, but i still have fun in that too.
Horrible for your suspension Non resistant to heat build up at high speeds Twice as expensive to make
340i gang. This engine, especially with the ZF8 is a dream I live daily… never can get enough of the MPPSK exhaust note.
Great video. My wife still says no when I threaten to "Safari style" my Boxster. I've always loved rally cars and safari is great way to have your own.
Now that's a name Mega. Excuse me MEGA!! The MEGA track the ultimate off road car. MEGA length and MEGA wide frame. MEGA V12 horsepower thrust you forward at a reasonable MEGA price. MEGA!!
My CVT transmission in my Kia accelerates flat no jumping around and I really like it kinda feels like driving an electric, and I don't ever feel that jerk in acceleration when gear shifts occur. I guess that's natural I drove manual before but this feels a lot smoother. I feel like complaints that it FEELS bad and awful to drive is a change is bad take. Or it's the same kinda thing that makes people like to take the mufflers off their cars because louder is better. I appreciate the sport/eco setting. Eco when cruisin, sport when you actually need to accelerate or do something. Hearing that some CVTs shift now feels shortsighted from the companies either don't use a CVT or just hope the customer base adapts to them not doing that.
James: "I might look familiar " Me: Yes... but also not quite and im not sure how to feel about it... James: "... and my brother, Justin!" Me: Ahhh.....
this poor mk1 😂😭
Welcome to Donut
I like James, but this video just ain't it.
This was fun to make! I appreciate the opportunity, guys!
Literally a pass the parcel CZcams channel at this point.
wtf Happend withe the chanel
Porsche never saw dirt again? Maybe have a look at the WRC of the past years. There is a Porsche 911 GT3 racing. Also Alpine A110. Romain Dumas drives the 911 GT3 RS R-GT.
I might be wrong, but I don't think there were factory-backed Porsches in WRC or Dakar after the 959. Certainly privateers have continued to race in Porsches, but that's not quite the same as Porsche itself going racing again.
Great Vid Man. I always wanted a jackedup offroad stingray. The corvette's big fenders and curvy hipline are begging for a set of 40's. Keep up the awesome content. Looks like your bro has some competition. Stay Happy and Healthy.
I thought that voice sounded familiar, its funny that both brothers fell into such similar places.
Where did the other guys go though?
I thought I was watching Donut for a sec.
Nice vid. Keep it up. Ignore the haters. They just love hating
I thought I was watching a Donut video 😂
My favorite part is when she gets back on the gas before he tells her, because she's feeling the Porsche, has more track knowledge and the confidence to go for it.
The hate comments are funny, never heard of a collab?
Despite the comment iam still having fun watching
Duuude I fully thought that was Justin with a funny mic on lool
what happened did they get sold or something?
Wtf is this.........humm time to unsubscribe
Not into cars? Then find another channel.
I miss old overdrive so much 😢
Then watch the old videos. But this is how they started off before they did in person activities. It wasn't sustainable financially.
@@babyluvangie These people think everything is free. It cost money to shoot videos and pay employees. It baffles me how spoiled people are. Nothing is free.
guess it's time to unsubscribe
This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure.
Lmao i was bugging for a second and was asking myself “what is justin doing on Overdrive!?!?” 😭😊
I thought I was tripping for real lol
fell off
Wait what
lol thought I was watching Donut for a sec
Same. They look basically identical
Ditto 😂
@@abhigyanghosh9330 we are identical 😅
Overdrive fell off hard
Indeed
Give em a chance like
Just say you're not into cars and move on!
@@babyluvangie well, the thing is that i subscribed not only for content but also people and both changed. That's it.
my farts are better than overdrive's farts
coming from a background in having go-karts when i was young, first starting out with a basic cenerfugal clutch and eveuntally going to a CVT, i dont hate them, just dont particularly want it in a car cause it makes it feel even more souless than a regular automatic, HOWEVER i do see the benifit of it and would love to see manufacturers do it right personally, figuring out some way to make it easy to get to to replace it super easy would make the most sense, like in a minibike or go-kart, just a couple of bolts, a nut and maybe a few wacks of a hammer and you get the belt out and a new one in, half hour job if things go right.
Yes, cvts destined to be terrible forever. Iiiiiiiiiiiii haaaaaaaaaaate cvvvvvvvvttttttr
