    I actually was able to hold a World Record on one of the german stages for about a month, and one thing i learned at the end is that in order to get to those times, you are either braking as much as the car will allow you to without overreving the engine or locking up the tires, and on throttle there is only maximum Bananas, and if the tires don't grip up right away you already lost time, it took me 3 days an several mental breakdowns before keeping a run together, and that was on tarmack, which i would consider to be a bit easier in the Group B monsters

      I understand what you mean. Best placement i got was i think Nr 15 with the evo (top 100 on most courses in most classes) and its even more of that with the Keyboard i can tell ya. Either go super fast with the best car tuning or crash n restart. Mental breakdown if you crash close to the finish line because you "wanted to much"

It was fun but also hard and intense cause the stage was quite technical with very little room for error in first half of stage and yeah i had a couple mental breakdowns aswell until i gave up and was basically #3 in world only beaten by two guys who were about 0.2s faster than me

    "Hey guys, DiRT Rally admin here" 😏
    This was a great attempt!
    Your biggest challenge was in the leaderboard you chose to beat. New Zealand is a base-game location and Group B is a base-game car class, both of which are ultra competitive.
    In addition, New Zealand is one of the trickier stages due to the narrowness of the roads.
    Still though, wht Top 100 pace there, you could get a World Record on quite a few other places, at least for a little while.
    Try out some Wet weather leaderboards, or ones on DLC locations (All the DIRT Rally 1 locations + Scotland), or in a DLC car class (Group B RWD, 2000cc 4WD, F2 KitCar) and that #1 is certainly achievable. 👍

      @Rainbowstunting Před rokem +9

      I don't understand this comment section at all, so many comments echoing the same 'top of the leaderboards are all sweaty nerds with cuts and cheap tricks'. I competed in both World Series events and got to the quarter finals in both iterations. This stage was part of one of the qualifiers and literally nobody cut this course anywhere and they would've if it gained any time. That dumb nascar bank gains basically no time and it's risky to get a proper exit with it. Show me the cheap tricks, cuts and weird 'rock bounces' or wall bounces people are talking about because there is nothing special on this stage. His driving was alright but he went wide a lot meaning he never got the power down early enough from what I was able to see between the jump cuts in the editing. I love his videos but some of the viewers really do think that if he cannot get close there must be some sort of reason, well this time the reason was that he just was not very fast.

  • @zackster1697
    @zackster1697 Před rokem +241

    Biggest thing holding you back, specifically on this stage, is your lack of using shortcuts. The inside cliff of the corner at 7:21 can be used as a bank to both shorten the distance traveled and carry more speed. All things considered the last run would have been top 100 if these skips didn't exist.

      This is what I've been thinking the entire video. His run WAS fast, but the fastest guys are driving this game as if it was Trackmania. Finding every single possible cut and shortcut they can utilise to shorten the distance. If you don't know these, you will be a few seconds short every time.

At that point you know every single thing on every track that can go wrong and how much attention it needs to avoid it. For the rest its driving on the absolute limit with knowing details like when to upshift for better traction out of corners for example and how much you need to slide in certain corners.

    Saw alot of corners where you're full sending on some tight opening bends where could be feathering up the momentum as the corner opens to carry alot more exit speed same for entry into alot of corners could carry alot more pace through a good few sections by finding the right line to carry the car into the bend sideways and throttle n gearing the car to steer more than steering input.

    The top times on the Dirt Rally 2 leaderboards, especially in such a competitive class such as Group B cars, are going to be almost literally impossible to beat, you really just have to know the extremely fine line between absolutely sending it at full tilt through the corners and ending up off the stage, Dirt Rally 2 is a super finnicky game.

    Interesting that you've mentioned handbrake. I remember watching some group B footage on YT, and they didn't use it in awd cars. As i understand, a coupling that disengages the rear drive or something whenever handbrake is pulled was implemented in rally cars later. In the 80s they would struggle in tight hairpins up to the point of doing a thousand point turn.

    • @socks2441
      @socks2441 Před rokem

      yeah, im pretty sure you are right. i still use the handbrake though. jimmy did a very respectable attempt here, h pattern with clutch, heel and toe shifting and at first no handbrake. im not sure if he used one later, i couldnt see one on his wheel setup. (but he did jokingly mention the strategy was to handbrake every corner). these cars can be VERY understeer prone.

    I find setting up the car to be a great part of the fun in Dirt Rally. Taking a car from being an unruly monster to a smooth-as-silk beast that is practically reading your mind and shaving double digits seconds off your best time is a great pleasure to me. But yeah, figuring out what all the different settings actually does to the car takes a while to learn.

    Awesome fun to watch, Jimmer! I wonder if the fastest people were maybe using SQ gearing, could that account for a bit of speed gain? Either way, I'm in awe of the times! I'm generally quite pleased if I get within 45 seconds of the record...

    I'm a Dirt Rally fan for many years (Den49HotRodder) but still using a controller with 1st view driving and absolutely no assist. It's hard to compare times with users who drives on 3rd view either on controller or wheels and with assist activated. Good job!

    As someone with a top 500 time in the r5 rally class it’s an incredibly competitive track. Brutally technical and short requiring virtual perfection on every corner. It’s fucking bananas how much sleep I’ve lost on this track to still be 20 ish seconds or so off the world record

    Te Awanga Sprint was the first and only course I've cracked top 25 on in Dirt Rally 2. Fun mix of slow and mid speed corners. I've put the car in a tree so many times in the final sector it still haunts me.

  • @jfv2312

    I remember I held a world top 40 time in the 2000cc category thanks to an (for me) unbelievable run with the Fabia WRC in Monte Carlo... for like 3 days before I started falling behind. Granted my setup and skill are average-low, but people are absolutely crazy when it comes to this game. If DR 3.0 or however the next game is called includes better online functionalities, it will be a classic for sure

    @JackBetts55 Před rokem +1

    Not sure if it works on the forward version of this stage but I know on Te Awanga Sprint Reverse there's a fairly substantial cut that the game doesn't reset you for that if you get right can gain you almost 10 seconds, that might be what was going on with the top guys on this stage

  • @RavenRedwood
    @RavenRedwood Před rokem +4

    When it comes to stage records, the suspension and gearing setup make a _massive_ difference. You can look at the leader's setup and watch their replay for an idea of what you need to do to get top times.

    • @mack4691
      @mack4691 Před rokem

      I didn't know the suspension was that integral. Any tips or principles for setting that up?

    • @RavenRedwood
      @RavenRedwood Před rokem +1

      @@mack4691 in my experience configuring suspension is a similar process to gearing (or even like setting steering degree on tarmac) you essentially want to have the travel and springs set for the max load the car will experience on that stage; any more 'give' than what is necessary just reduces precision and control. (use your judgement of course, for example if the stage has a section with deep ruts do I really need to sacrifice stiffness for that to keep speed or can I find a good line without loosing control?) If the game supports it you can use the telemetry data on your best run as a guide for what you need to adjust. Unfortunately if the game doesn't have replay data you'll just have to experiment, which is why checking the leader's setup can save some time, just note that camber/toe can also make a big difference but since it's more of a driver's preference, the leader's settings may not suit your style 👍

    There was a tool for the original Dirt Rally where you could compare your time to the best and get an overheard trace of the two runs. Don't know if they've brought that forward but that would be perfect for the sweaty runs.
