American Reacts to This is Rally 2 (Pure Sound) 

That tree on the edge is when the co-driver gives the instruction, "Don't cut." This means: do not cut the corner and stay on the road rather than trying to take the corner early. There are a lot of those in a race and sometimes they are there for the driver's safety (believe it or not). There could be a nasty obstacle deeper into that corner that if he cut it, would put them in a river, head on into a standing tree, or sucked into a deep ditch.

Love it “The skill to do this….Oh” as he parked in a pond!😅

Despite being subbed for bloody years this is the first vid of yours to actually show up on my youtube for god knows how long

7:55 The organizers do not have to clean up anything like logs by the road. Before the race, drivers and co-drivers go through the individual stages in a civilian car and write a schedule and notes where, if they do it correctly, they should have it written as "don't cut"

Love to see the old cars from the 80's those original 4x4 Audi quatros Lancias and Celicas were bad ass..

No laps , but special stages. You drive thru the track only once. Greetings From Finland 🎉

In my humble opinion rally drivers are among (if not the) best drivers on the planet, able to drive on various surfaces betwenn dirt sand and tarmac, be they dry, wet, snowy. Day or night, they do it all!

The one with the inside view of a rolling rally car was Colin McCrae. He did that a lot.... His co driver is a very brave man

many years ago, the legend, colin mcrae in (i think) australia rally, went over a series of 3 jumps. took the 3rd jump sideways to get a better angle at the upcomming bend. absolute nutter and amazing driving skill. so wish i was skilled enough to even attempt to drive rally.

Rally drivers are just a different breed. Highly skilled, but also a little mad.

i used to go and watch rally GB in the 80's during the group B years in between stages the drivers would park in car parks near the next stage to avoid time penalties by arriving too early they would chat away with the fans until the co-driver screamed at them that they had to leave forrest stages with no access roads mean you get to a good vantage point by running down the road they are driving on between cars (warning whistles to let you know they are coming) even more exciting at night if a car went off the road the driver would call for the crowd to push them out of ditches or even right overturned cars talk about hands on

There's a saying in rally: "Only the driver can win a stage, but the co-driver can loose it", referring to, if a co-driver reads out his pace notes wrong, the driver may crash the car. What probably happened with the Lancia and the Opel going in the water and that Ford hitting the stub in the inside of the turn, that stub should have been noted in the pace notes and clearly told to the driver by the co-pilot. The stage has been meticulously inspected pre race, for the pace notes, but then again, the driver might have cut the corner to tight, obstacles are a part of rallying ...Also, the stages of course vary in length, but it's not unusual that the top cars are within a few seconds of each other after a ten mile stage, so every split second counts.....why they push to and beyond the limits.

Most of those clips are on public roads, so instead of "laps", one speaks of "stages" and "stage times"

In Subaru documentary once been said (some sort of): the perfect race creates illusion of the car standing still, but the road underneath - that is what moving.

Motorbike cop on the Jim Clark Rally a couple of weeks back was laugh for the spectator.

If you think THIS is insane, you should see rallying on SNOW and ICE!!! They go just as fast there too!

listen to the pace notes given by the co driver to the driver while he's driving. insane concentration start to finnish.

Bloody love your channel mate. Been off way.....outback and had no reception for 3 months. Anyway, I come back to "humanity", see one of your vids and it's fucking refreshing, aye? An authenticity you can't fake!! Keep on keeping on, brother!

I don't know if you're aware of this but the majority of the non-WRC small hatchbacks that you see drifting in this video are FWD. 🙂

Last crach and the Porsche in France championnat !

Oh we're back! Good to see ya man. Nice one..

There are likely some clips from Group B in here. It is not about bystanders standing too close to the course (some of the bystanders are as nuts as the drivers, some will always stand too close), but about the power of the car. The Quattros in the clips are likely Group B.

7.50 the Co-Driver forgot to say Don't Cut! Or Driver Cut anyway!

WRC, Dakar, MotoGP, Isle of Mann TT and Formula 1 is all the motorsports a man ever wants or needs. Those comps are the absolute pinnacle of skill and the absolute white hot razors edge of technology.

One confesses to being a speed junky. Alas, too dangerous ( and illegal of course!) in normal traffic. Now, when was a uniformed copper the buzz of responding to a call was immeasurable! 😎

Its like your baseball to our cricket, your american football to our real football, nascar to rally. We might stumble on to one of your sports on a random channel, i imagine it would be the same your side of the pond, ESPN the ocho on a thurday afternoon or summat.

9:25 that will hurt everywhere.

This is an old rally video. Today WRC rally is much more than this. If you want to watch rally of today there is a video: Best of WRC rally Finland 2022 crashes action and pure sound. Greets from Finland. Take care.

The trouble is it peaked in the Group B era. Probably the most exciting period in the history of motorsport. Obviously that would never be allowed today, but everything since feels a bit neutered.

I really love the old footage. It's more pure.

Just subscribed-again,lol ✌️

2:53 takes just one missed direction, maybe written notes a corner a 7 but its 6 that all it may take to over cook it and you end in the drink. such a fine balance when you close to limits, conditions may change, another car could put a lot mud from side road on the road or a lot lose gravel then you may have to much speed. love driving these narrow roads in uk, but got to drive as public road someone maybe coming other direction around a corner but room for one so corners you must be a speed you stop but areas still very narrow you see far ahead maybe few drop off's / jumps you can get to 60mph it feels like 120-130mph if not more its loads fun,not like rally it closed road and one way so really go for it but for normal daily drive you can have a lot fun if you know the road and built up to it learn car and how it reacts,my current i20 don't like drop off's like my old fiesta so got to take it a bit more easy on those as you may have few inches to edge road and wall or tree. so much fun but only when see it safe if i screw up it only me, no people,entrances,junctions, and road conditions allow you have play but know your limits have your fun then chill you always want to keep pushing small bit fun and chill between as soon get carried away. only once had back end out with no computer help as no esp,abs,tc bit hot in to a corner and wet and leaves , two option take it hot and deal with possible back end lose at speed or unsettle car entrance to corner and deal with a slide at slower pace that option i took an up hill right corner lift off over steer, fwd you still get back end lose. key thing i din't panic i upset the car seen what it wanted then adjusted, allowed side ways to burn or energy / speed and corrected for exit corner, back to PlayStation or Xbox days id always set car up so it twitchy, even i game was not as clean but life in danger you do not rush the car correct to early you really unsettle the car. only once that enough, rushing back mums house on holiday as hours late forgot one corner was so sharp other direction go a lot faster, one last corner before mile long straight, tend to drive them few times these days learn grip, so thats my experience bit rally in my city car done few forest tracks they fun but a lot slower, paved road bad condition i take any day over dirt road for a play safe play tho . and at least 60 feels over 120mph you get your excitement no risk driving ban if you have no people,entrances,junctions, and road conditions allow and be slow so you can stop before reach a corner then its as safe as it can be

It would be hard to capture but a cockpit of the driver would be interesting for the handbrake turns so only 1 hand on the wheel plus also the heel and toe use of the clutch pedal if still used.

The very definition of "adrenaline rush".

I know that these cars look like they are going fast. Buy in reality they are going way much faster. Here in the UK the speed limit is 70mph on straight smooth motorways. These cars are averaging more than that on loose gravel tracks. I was once in a fast car with a crazy driver (professional). I had all my faith in her that she'd keep me safe. She took me around the TT coarse in her tuned up GTR. We went around corners I'd normally slow to 30mph for at 70+. She wanted to get 200mph out of her car. But with me as a passenger she got 197. Then it started to rain and she couldn't go and play. She blamed me for being too fat and how she would have got 200 if I was't in the car. I said "next year I wont have such a big breakfast and I'll make sure I have a big shit before we set off"... Not long after a JCB digging a hole in the road for fast internet hit her car and basically destroyed it. Buckled the roof and the chassis... I was just as devastated as she was. To see that car being destroyed. She'd had it custom built in the colours she wanted and tuned up by the manufacture. I felt so sorry for the guy in the JCB. Imagine having to phone your boss and say "I've accidentally hit a car with my digger"... Boss says, "That's ok, just give them our number and I'll settle it with cash"... "Ermmm. Boss that might not be so simple. It's a one of a kind custom made and tuned up GTR valued at £125,000..." "OH fook"

It should be made a law that all rally cars are fitted with 'Dixie' airhorns for when they get airborne 😂😂

Mate……I’m subbed, notifications on yet I haven’t been notified for months ⁉️ I thought you’d retired 😮

Why US Motorsport doesn't really do much in Europe

No time is taken off your laptimes for any reason. Only added. You crash, the clock keeps ticking. 7:40 driver error, or co-pilot forgot to say Dont Cut! I say driver. Remember, rally takes place on normal public roads, not special tracks. Obstacles are left in place, only the road it self is kept clean'ish but they dont repair it unless undrivable. The roads are opened for the Public again shortly after the race is over.

That's we europeans have in mind when we think racing... when the US people think racing is accelerate straight durinq a quarter mile, or running on an oval track. And that's why american cars had for so long big engines and poor chassis, when the european sportscars were so agile with so smaller engines. For us, turning is racing ;)

Definitely a different breed ❤ you need to watch the dukes crash videos 😂😂

Yeah, Gruppe B ended in 1987

EB you got a suntan and are looking great man.

Rally Rocks!!!!!

forget the quick twice muscles, you need massive balls!

You haven't even seen the worst/best of group b spectators yet, the videos you watched so far didn't seem to have the most egregious ones which was in portugal, I'd say the most interesting group b video is "when rallying got too fast", it goes very in depth and also shows/explains why it unfortunately got banned

Me at 6:42 with my truck can i would let pass

Americans don't even know what these video clips are. They think "racing" means driving cars in circles for hours.

...It`s get the h..l out of the way..I´m driving, cause I´m late for dinner

Group B aint alow anymore I have heard!

If you do spin,and you watch true youre side window,and see a clear road--------lock all your 4 wheels. You are safe Maybe a bit dizy,,but that all.

The Copilot has to write down the obstacles.Bigger Rocks Tree Logs,Potholes and so on.They dont Clean the track.The Stages are to long

rally

SURGICLY REMOVE SEAT CUSSION FROM BOOTY HOLE... HAHAHAHA

Well rally ( wrc) is run on up to 220 mi of stages on closed public roads so it hard to remove every potential obstacle beside the stages. I remember a story told by a famous rally driver, he sad that he raced one one stage so many times that he start to remember objects around road and start to use them as breaking point, so there was a farm beside the road that had a pole and he use that pole as breaking point before tricky corner for years, but one year farmer made some work around farm and he moved that random pole couple of meters further down the road and yea next year when he approached that corner he was looking for that pole and when he saw it he started to break but unfortunately he was a little bit too late and he crashed :D

monster energy gitten jr vs daigo battledrift

Can you react to Billy Connolly colonoscopy

Rallying got way too dangerous the power to weight ratio and safety equipment was mind blowingly out of proportion but for the fans probably the best damm spectacle you can see

Watch crusty demons of dirt

checkout kalle rovanperäs pov view on ouninpohja stage in finland this year! he won worldchampionship as 18year old and following year too he is super talented kid

What happened to shameless reactions

Can you please STOP saying, that was a lot of skill, that was excellent, etc. every time you say that, a car ends up in the lake, in a barn, hitting a wall, doing a somersault, or flying upside down into a river. You are a flipping jinx, EB.

Ya lo dijo Ayrton Senna,. Los del Rally están todos LOCOS!!!!.....

Probably some of the best drivers in the world

Rallying is about the driver and co-drivers ability to navigate the stages. Most of the time they don't know the course other then from the rece they do before hence the pace notes the co-driver has. Obstacles are there and they aren't moved to test the drivers and co-drivers skills

Watch the RU-vid clip of David Coulthard describing the skill set if the Rally World Champion.

Modern rally cars drift as little as possible. Drifting is inefficient. Older rally cars had a much worse suspension, so drifting was in many cases a benefit to go fsdt in corners.

The reason rally doesn't pick up in the States is you can't do it in a stadium hence sell food&drinks...You're welcome!😉✌

you looking there on mostly amatuer rallys poland slovakia finnland sweden serbia hungary germany etc few wrc clips in it group b are scares in this compilation unfortunately those things where scary as fck...if we being honest rally on itself is scary in no matte4r what even if you pushing a mini morris you will be most likely on full throttle in a mini where you would brake whit other cars i drove few seasons in serbia amatuer in a yugo 55...evrything can be fast depends on how big your cohones are

ya can't park there mate.......... those who know, know lol

7:45 That should have been in their notes or someone else hit it earlier and pulled it out.. You don't move stuff for rallies, it's all a part of the test. There were a few Group B cars in there but really it's a mixed bag from top end modern factory cars to home built classics. 9:20 Pretty sure seats have to have the halo wing things to stop your head whipping round these days. There is a big mix of old and newer footage in this mix.

It's a shame that the US doesn't have rally because the country has such diverse terrain, but I guess it would be considered too dangerous.

sometimes they put logs or used tyres in the corners to make sure that drivers don't cut the corners.

i've been to the wrc in germany (trittenheim), in real it's much more fun!

See WRC late 70 and earlier 80.

Have you seen the Dakar rally at all?

There are no laps in rallying!

Oh cool a old Alpine

💪✅💥🇨🇵

Usually you do a recce run & there would be a note saying “don’t cut” for that corner where the car was flipped by a log. Either they missed the log on the recce so don’t note it, the driver missed the call, the co driver failed to read it or the driver ignored it.

Rallying ❤ it 🍻👍🏼
