map the handbrake to the left shift pedal on the wheel. you are shifting on the H shifter. The left shift pedal is much easier to press than a button on the wheel Cheers! :)
That's actually what I planned to do for my second record. But however, rotating wheel more than a degree, btw. 90-180, makes it difficult to press any button on wheel. But this will make it better probably, thanks!
You can map the handbrake to a button on the wheel but in all honesty I have a simagic setup with the shifter and handbrake and everything and I only use it on hairpins and even then not always. Using the balance of the car and the brake is very effective in making the car turn tight. Keep at it and have a fun time !
@ With time you'll find your way around the different types of cars. At times it can be incredibly frustrating but that's all part of learning how to tame each car. You'll also find that giving it more gas does not necessarily always make you go faster. Moving a bit slower through some corners will yield you better times that drifting your way through each corner, albeit less fun. I recently bought ea wrc and I could not even explain the frustration of playing on wet gravel with a rwd bmw and trying to get back 9 seconds of pace. As I said most importantly have fun and enjoy the process !
@ I wouldn't say it's necessarily harder, it is different though. A times it feels stupid hard. AI is very inconsistent. In some stages I'm leading literally almost a minute on one stage, and on another I'm pushing my limit and I'm 10+ seconds behind. That being said it is fun and it is another game to play, different tracks and cars. I'd say it's worth giving a shot if you enjoy rallying in general, more of the good stuff I say
@@nirvana613 That game got mixed reviews on Steam I remember. Seems that has still issues. But yeah, will get at some point because its the latest, AAA rally game on market.
You have to try BeamNG! belive me it is so much fun. It is THE sandbox game for driving and has everthing in it you wish for. Offroad is also very good
Driving simulator games like BeamNG, Assetto Corsa fails to attract me with their a few pretty good mechanics but lacking visual - gameplay immersion as a whole game. Definitely looks fun to play, in long terms I don't think I'll play for long hours of gameplay. But I saw BeamNG rally mods or maps and looks really interesting tho. I added this to my to-try rally game list, thank you for the recommendation!
Tip for improving, you should use both hands to steer or try different ffb settings. I recommend modding that logitech shifter to sequential shifter ( for example like this th-cam.com/users/shortsDHiPLBhfngY?si=NkXBGLBCp0QyaNZE ) but overall you're doing good job, keep it up.
Yeah, at first I decided to go with low ffb, one hand steering and one hand shifting but that felt too complicated later. I need to adapt shifting before the corners and both hands on wheel while drifting as you said. Shifter modification looks interesting but H pattern is a personal thing to me :) Thanks for the tips and comment buddy, I will!
map the handbrake to the left shift pedal on the wheel. you are shifting on the H shifter.

That's also another good option. I tried quattro and as you said, braking + full throttle can make turn car to very high angles. Thanks!

@@nirvana613 Well said. Is EA WRC 24 harder than Dirt? If it is, then I better stick to Dirt for a while...😅Thanks, you have fun too buddy!

i would recoment you do change the steering angle to 600 degrees. this is what the in game wheel uses and can be easier to drive for beginning.
Really? Yeah that could help, thanks!
Or enable softlock

Too much input if you try hard enough you can do without a handbrake
Right. RWDs are perfect for that and I think other cars can be modified for that, gonna try it out. Thanks for the tip!
