Decades on Dirt: 50 Years of Off-road Supercars
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 06. 2024
- 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.

This was fun to make! I appreciate the opportunity, guys!
I was certainly shocked to see him on here. His brother is such a Donut, I like this guys way to take it into Overdrive ;P
lol thought I was watching Donut for a sec
Same. They look basically identical
Ditto 😂
@@abhigyanghosh9330 we are identical 😅
@@abhigyanghosh9330maan i thought it was the same person until i read this comment ... oh ...he went on to explain...
me too
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
Duuude I fully thought that was Justin with a funny mic on lool
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.
I think he sold the channel not too sure
@@therealmudafuka7200 it wasn't sold, they posted someone a while back that they are operating on a limited budget and going back to the original format.
I thought that voice sounded familiar, its funny that both brothers fell into such similar places.
"He went to Hollywood, and fell in with a bad crowd!"
I thought I was watching a Donut video 😂
Me too
For a second i thought this was a Donut crossover. But this Justin was a bit off xDDD
My brain is in meltdown mode - like wtf... WTF... Are we sure this isn't The Parent trap... THERE ARE TWO OF THEM!!!
Lmao
Holy shit! Justin is guest hosting this week!
Edit after watching the first 30 seconds: I stand corrected
man this channel just isn't the same without callum and will
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.
Do it!
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.
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!!
Lol, this was trippy. Great job James.
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.
i was so confused i was like "wait isn't his name justin??"
Justin went to Hollywood, his brother went to Britain! :D
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.
@@DroneStrike1776how is THAT your take from the original comment? Missing a totally different format is not the same as wanting something for free. Calm down fella.
you guys better hold on TIGHT to James! He's an awesome host, very much like his brother!
Great job man. Loved the content and presentation
please, keep bringing content, nice to know that Freeman came in twins
Literally a pass the parcel CZcams channel at this point.
Welcome to Donut
WRC needs to make a Supercar rally series!! Imagine seeing mustangs raptor, Porsche 911 Dakar, Hurtican Sterato and others competing on a rally stage!!
Nice vid. Keep it up. Ignore the haters. They just love hating
This is how I find out he wasn't lying about the twin brother.....
Im definitely rooting for you😅
Dude I thought Justin left Donut for second lmao
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.....
TIL Justin from Donut have a twin brother.
I like everything that looks like from a Mad Max movie.
BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL 3 GUYS Willam, Callum and Scott.
Cool vid, some stuff there I’d never heard of.
Just a couple of tiny things. With the Ariel Nomad it is only the R version, of which there are only about 6 that have the sequential transmission. The other 98% have normal H pattern 6 speed. And the winch and adjustable suspension are options so not all have those either. These things are so customisable from the factory that I don’t think 2 exist with the same spec!
And I bloody love mine 😎
I literally thought I was tripping lmao
Wait what
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.
That's Justin trying to run a new channel without being sacked from Donut
Are you sure, they are just sibling? I think they are just alter ego😂😂😂
IF that Mustang Raptor is real, it's 100% going to be a "Raptor" Version of the Mach E, not the sportscar.
I thought I'm high or something 😂, turns out I'm not
what happened did they get sold or something?
Despite the comment iam still having fun watching
What happened to this channel
No wait what?
This isn't donut. Wait, you have never been in an F1 car! But hell ya, you know, how to lay down some info.
When you get your Justin from Wish
Local Motors is actually dumb as shit for thinking anyone wans to be shuttled around in a shitty glass case. You'd think THEY of all people would know that.
isint he from doughnut
This channel has gone down the drain, such a shame. Still love the content on Driver61 though
Justin 0 -- James 1
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.
The hate comments are funny, never heard of a collab?
Not really sure what happened here. I enjoyed when you guys upgraded cars and did challenges. All this new content is very generic.
my farts are better than overdrive's farts
wtf Happend withe the chanel
Not profitable-enough for the owner iirc, the same people that were here before went to other channels
guess it's time to unsubscribe
This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure.
only came here to say, this channel is dying. I don’t even know who this person is in the video. I speak for most of your early subs when I say we miss the top gear style presentation. That’s the only reason I came to this channel. As you can see your views have plummeted since going back to generic youtuber car voiceovers. There’s way better channels out there for that. Sucks to unsubscribe from what used to be one of my favorite channels, but there’s no reason for me, or apparently hundreds of thousands of people, to be here anymore.
Wtf is this.........humm time to unsubscribe
Not into cars? Then find another channel.
@@babyluvangie just because the content quality fell *a lot* doesn't mean someone isn't into cars
fell off
I like James, but this video just ain't it.
