I'd love to get into motorsport, I'd prob get into road rallies when I get a few things sorted out. but yeah motorsport is so expensive so for me I just watch it and play it in video games
Yeah I'd love to be involved in car motorsport - I've got motocross though so would be a huge expense to do both! Sticking to the simulators for now 🤙🏽
Motorsport is an expensive one, however it doesn't have to be. I started out in a Motorsport called auto testing where you are timed over a course layer out in cones. You don't need to modify your car in any way, and the entry fees are almost never over £30, with most entry fees being £15 It teaches you car control, how to slide a car, how to stop quickly on slippy surfaces and is a great sport to compete in. I started at aged 14, meaning it's one of the best ways to learn to drive.
Cars With JB true, but it's accessible, I think it'll make good viewing for yourself to compete and document it for your channel in the near future perhaps ?
Back when men were men and engineers were coked out of their minds lol, took a special breed to run those cars. Would love to drive an old Audi Quattro S1.
The Btrda production class is definitely the way forward for people to start out in i won the overall championship in 2015 and 2016 running a 106gti I'd recommend the 106gti and the saxo vts such a highly competitive car
I always dreamed about racing in rallycross... Last year I started to race in autocross (similar to rallycross but without the joker and the tarmac) It's really fun and even cheaper than rallycross. I also got the opportunity to test my car at the estering (worldrx track in buxtehude). It's my home track and was a dream come true to drive my own race car around the track. But for now I'll definitely stay in autocross not only because it's cheaper and you have a lot more championships and tracks to choose from, it's also easier for me and in my opinion more fun to drive on dirt than on tarmac. So if you want to start competing in motorsport autocross is a even "cheaper" option than rallycross and also great fun.
Really enjoying ur videos mate I have watched you from the start and seen how far you are progressing, goes to show hard work pays off mate. Keep doing what you’re doing 👊🏼
Thanks! Good question - it has good aftermarket support and I've seen a few people rallycrossing them, but at the same time it'd probably be more expensive to get to rallycross spec than some other, slightly more fit for purpose cars!
😈😈😈😈 rally cross originate in my grandmothers next door neighbors block of land with a well in the middle of the block ... so i used a mower to cut a track along tye tree lines in straight curved grass cout corners over the well jump onto gravel road still very slippy in her new 800cc suzuki hatchback ..... i was in year 4 .. allthe neighbors watched me from the houses cutting laps like in a ring ...., back then crashed rally cars were written off and guys wouod straighten them by puling apart the frame rails of webbing to get the car as straight as possible to race them again in a contained environment where there was lower costs of crashes because the cars never hit terminal speeds as before when raced in a competitive edge in world competition. ... a great way to re- use purpose built vehicles that use to be pulled apart and parting the vehicles ....😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈 that was around the niddle to end 1970's , when i kept my driving capabilities ongoing as my first experiences was in a mini cooper when i was age 4 ... we drove them into stacked cars as the top car fell onto the mini's roof without any real damage .... sitting on wooden fruit and vegetable boxes in 1977 😈😈😈😈😈
Yeah it's the engine required - you could probably go for a 1.4 as long as it still fit all the rest of the regs but you'd likely be struggling for performance relative to the 1.6s
Very interesting, just what I was thinking about. Couple of questions: What would be total year cost? How many races are year and what is the cost for each? Is there a series for Subaru Impreza and Mitsubishi Evo cars?
Yeah super modified would let the imprezas and evos in, annual cost is around £5,000 according to what I could see on rallycross forums, and there are usually like 8-10 rounds a year with entry fees of around £300 per event 🤙🏽
F1. I'm apparently naturally better at rallying, but I'm also naturally scared of ploughing my face into a tree at high speed. Wouldn't mind a bit of BTCC, but back in the glory days of the 90s. The £5k a year cost for the cheapest motorsport is why I never got into it. Probably will if I'm not married with kids by 40 but too late to get to a high level by then. Incidentally, the number 1 car on your list is the one I've been rallying in! Couldn't afford to join the series though sadly.
I think I'm the same as you - would want to do F1 but better at rallying (all that Colin McRae rally as a child did me good) - cool to hear you've been out in the C2, hope it was good!
@@CarsWithJB The C2 is a great little rally car. I've not done a huge amount in it but it's certainly a great choice for beginners- my 1st time out I didn't even spin once. Admittedly everyone else did so some luck may have been involved ☺
I chose these based on which classes you could get into cheaply! There are classes that'll take AWD & RWD but not necessarily as entry level as these cars
Honestly crazy - sometimes my views show like 500 on YT but on the creator studio thing they're already double that - it's just how often YT actually updates 🤷🏽♂️
Did he just say 'fire proof underwear' as a recommendation. I'm sorry but if I go up in a ball of flames the only things that won't be burnt is my a** and my crotch area!!! So I don't really see the point in that if I'm honest.
