  • 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.

    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, 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.

    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 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.
