What Ray said, there are (or were) 8 classes for cars. FWD saloon on road tyres was class 1 and specially modified trails cars class 8. Some of the specials are insanely competent, so they have to do stop-and restart to sort out the winners. Often the class 1 "section ends" is part-way up, too. One of the best performances I remember was someone in a 2CV, got waaay higher than anyone thought he would. I've read that the 2CV motor can go to 7000 rpm if you tune it a bit and this guy was using all of them.
The ruts are getting deeper and the bottom of cars can't clear it. They stop and put car down in first gear and the car can sometimes pull its self out.
I used to own a beatle 1300 1973 model, the hill here is way bigger than that and that car never failed me. To tell the truth, in days of dry road all i had to do was throttle until reach 1100-1500 rpm, after that i could simply drop the gas and the car would climb by himself. It's a reliable car for that kind of terrain.
I think I just saw every remaining Suzuki X90 in existence. lol. Loved the Avenger. I remember seeing an old entrants list for an Irish rally and there had to be over a dozen. Sadly all you see are the Mk2 fanboys nowadays. Nary a Chevette in sight either it seems.
Some vehicles stop cause they get stuck. But if your vehicle has just the right amount of torque, (put power to the road) you can stop, put it in first gear and it will pull its self out.
@@joe125ful Completely agree, I like vintage cars and it makes my heart cry to see people treating them like this, especially some 30's or 40's cars which today are very rare
Here there are some rare 30's or 40's cars that are very expensive and have been completely ruined, and now yes, they are cheap, because nobody wants them anymore
@@joe125ful what I mean is that if the car is damaged nobody would buy it anymore except at very low prices, because finding the spare parts is very difficult, and therefore they would buy another one in good condition
@@lupoberto8834 You're right, they should just sit in a barn under a cover. But honestly there is almost nothing in this video i would call expensive or rare...some caterhams, MGs, a Morgan or two, nothing here is from the 30s...these cars just look old and expensive...they ain't
I wonder with what logic someone could even remotely think of taking a rare 80/90 year old vintage car, which also has a high value, and destroy it in this way ... there are so many people who would dream of having one and they can't afford it, and then there are those who have it and throw it away...
@@PimpmyCPU Of course, I never said that they will not be able to do it, everyone with his properties does as he thinks, but in the same way I can freely say that I disapprove of what they do, also by virtue of the fact that secular cars are an historical heritage that once it's lost, it will never be able to be recovered, then of course if they want to use them like this, I certainly won't prevent them.
I wonder with what logic someone could even remotely think of being such a bitch and get mad about people doing whatever they please with their own car LMAO
@@blasrouan2554 what a useless reasoning...if only you had spent 30 seconds reading the answer above ... historical objects are a testimony of the past, they are not an object like any other, and whoever owns them should have the responsibility to preserve them. If someone buy Tower Bridge and demolish it, would you be happy? And if you still don't understand, it's useless for me to waste any more time explaining. I'll just give you an example: imagine that there is something you like very much and it is very rare, but you are not rich and you can't buy it, and you see that the few people who are lucky enough to have it throw it away. Would you be happy then?
