Took my daily driver 2005 Subaru WRX STI in the dirt at DirtFish Rally School for an SCCA Rally Cross event a few months ago! [ FIRST OFFICIAL CHANNEL EPISODE COMING DEC 1st ]
I was going insane about half way through the video thinking it was major deja vu, then i scrolled down to see I wasn't going insane. I still watched it to the end because I love all your videos.
Subbed. Already saw this video on the other channel but still liked it. Mostly because I live and breathe rally and I work on cars for a living. Keep up the great work and I hope you feel better soon. Have a good night man, See you sometime next year!
that run dont look too shabby, you prob want to play with the center diff settings and make the car slightly more rear biased with the power split to get the rear to slide out more and better turn in.
im not sure about the earlier models but all new STI's disengage the center diff when the hand brake is pulled. obviously the clutch still has to be used.
Actually most rally cars are all wheel drive but you can take anything into the dirt it. The cars in the video are just normal cars with a couple mods but real rally car which are fully modded and only made to be driven in the dirt are like i sad mostly awd since you have way more grip in the corners and have better 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) times.
Yeah like Th3shot said, real competition rally cars are mainly AWD because they need to be able to launch/accelerate on all terrain and maintain grip around corners that haven't got tarmac. That said, a majority of race cars are actually RWD, mostly because on a track AWD isn't necessary to maintain grip, and also AWD's add weight and tend to cause understeer (although torque vectoring help that these days) but as you can imagine, understeer in a formula 1 car would be disastrous, not to mention drivetrain power loss (every time you add more components to a drivetrain you lose more power because of friction) and extra fuel consumption. However there ARE rally events that only use FWD or RWD specifically, just for an extra kind of competition.
Hey Jerry! I've been very pleased with the rate of uploads lately. Thanks for making awesome videos for us!
I was going insane about half way through the video thinking it was major deja vu, then i scrolled down to see I wasn't going insane. I still watched it to the end because I love all your videos.

I'm not really into cars, but as soon as I saw your new channel I subscribed because I simple love all of your videos. Keep it up man!
Epic second channel man I just added it to my subscriptions . Keep em coming! ( LADIES)
I've been loving winter rallycross for 5 years now at an event just a few hours north of the border from you.
3 minutes in and I'm like, I've seen this before haven't I? XD still awesome tho, you need to do more like this B!
wooo! Looking forward to this channel champion!
i didn't think i would find this content interesting but damn....I DO and it looks hella fun!! nice car Jerry!
Subbed. Already saw this video on the other channel but still liked it. Mostly because I live and breathe rally and I work on cars for a living. Keep up the great work and I hope you feel better soon. Have a good night man, See you sometime next year!
Great Driving Jerry! Definitely need a "Cargasm" Intro.
Nice job bro awesome footage that WRX Sti is a little ffn beast be safe dude.
Yay Cargasm! Looks like a blast.
Looks like a ton of fun.
Good luck my friend with the Cargasm channel
Second,
Cheers from a Portuguese dude studying product design in the UK hoping to be the next fractal josh!
Wish there was more keep it up. Hope to see some work done to the subie
Looks like a blast! I have relatives up in Tacoma (I'm from cali) so maybe next time I'm up there I can check this out.
Best thing I ever saw at Dirt Fish was the Roadkill guys driving what I believe was a 69 Dodge Charger. Looks more fun than AWD any day.
Love all the new content Jerry! Do you have any plans to get a new car sometime soon?
Awesome to see more content coming from you more regularly Jerry!
Any plans on uploading video from the last MakerFaire? Was awesome touching base!
looks like so much fun. i would love to take my rs to an event like this
"Left turn, brake" Hilarious how the next shot is her pulling out and turning right.
Your sti must have 3 million horsepower with all dem stickers. :D
Fun!
lol top gear reference, cheaper than golf love it
I have always wanted to do something like this.
that run dont look too shabby,
you prob want to play with the center diff settings and make the car slightly more rear biased with the power split to get the rear to slide out more and better turn in.
Okay but what about that metal track when he was driving the Subie, what song is that??
cool
Jerry did you use the Osmo for the B-Roll and other shots??
is this a re upload?
i cleaned the fish so clean fish rally school
i love the (im only speeding becuase i have to poop) sticker thats so just jerry
Jerry, please forgive me but my OCD requires me to go nuts because of "Cheaper then golf..." Love your content anyways. :P
I loved Dirtfish! Check out some of my dirtfish CZcamss etc..
"If you can read this flip me over" lol, classic Barnacules.
understeer FTW!
When the hell did Nerdgasm start car stuff
Does the STI de-couple the centre diff when yanking on the handbrake?
No, you have to have the clutch in or it will kill the car instantly.
Barnacules Nerdgasm .....so this is the official channel .......................yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
cargasm intro coming soon?
TurgBurglar nah it doesn't have an auto centre diff clutch, which is weird because Toyota had that on their celicas for a long time
pumpuppthevolume "it's... Time... For.... CARGASM*subaru reving it's tits out*"
im not sure about the earlier models but all new STI's disengage the center diff when the hand brake is pulled. obviously the clutch still has to be used.
THIS TIME FOR NERDGASM, on cargasm. LOL
Okay I'm really stupid with cars and I'm trying to learn but are all rally cars front wheel drive?
Actually most rally cars are all wheel drive but you can take anything into the dirt it. The cars in the video are just normal cars with a couple mods but real rally car which are fully modded and only made to be driven in the dirt are like i sad mostly awd since you have way more grip in the corners and have better 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) times.

Are there any races that are specifically for FWD? I did not know that wow.
ok that was cool #AF
E30 best car
That STI of yours is no slouch!
Nope, she is a properly quick little sports car. Not a quarter mile monster but more than enough go juice for the dirt.
Cargasm Awesome!
I wish I could take my poor Opel Kadett there!
If it survives the first round
Lol
Cargasm if you liked it them upgrade your car so its more rally plz amsome vid
Can other people get a poopnap racing plate? I so want one....
