Jimmer, you’re a GT4 driver already and you’re on a respected sponsored team who is getting real results. You absolutely have a chance getting to GT3. You’re not just a shed-boy anymore
@@deadlyviper_ He talks about speed, not ponies. I dunno waafuc is Praga but less hp does not equal less performance. In the past it took 1400+ hp for Formula 1 car to reach 350 km/h milestone, now you can achieve it with less than 1000 hp despite being more than x1,5 heavy. Maybe with the exception of Alpin, because those idiots welded 11 kg ballast to their cars.
@@deadlyviper_ The R1T that he drove is between 330 and 380hp depending on the settings, and also weighs half what a GT3 does. They do basically identical lap times to GT3s on tracks without long straights, in which case GT3s have the top speed to be slightly faster thanks to their higher horsepower
'for a living' is the youtube channel I would think, the am seat likely does not come with a salary. But I agree that Jimmy absolutely has a shot at driving a gt3, but driving as a paid pro is another matter.
The longest stage in the game is actually in Chile, the stage called Pulperia, at a whopping 34.8 km or nearly 22 miles. This stage is probably the close second (not including the reverse of Pulperia named "Bio Bio") Though Pulperia/Bio Bio is probably the longest on the clock, as they are much slower, twistier stages.
"It's not about being competitive, it's about enjoying the experience ". Profound words and philosophy, don't you wish more sim racers understood this? So many racers have their experience ruined by an over-competitive racer who cannot accept that they just aren't good enough to run at the front, can't accept they have been passed, aren't placed where they 'deserve'. IRL any given race is filled with drivers that don't expect to win, but they enjoy finding their limits but without ruining other drivers races. Vintage/historic races in particular are where it's all about experience, with a pinch of competitive spirit added to keep it from being processional. I wish more sim racers understood this and drive with respect for others...good one Jimmer, you are still a premier ambassador for the sim world!
What if my experiential enjoyment comes from winning, am I not allowed to enjoy the game in my own way? If you're in racing for the experience, surely getting spun out is apart of that, and you can embrace it. But if I'm in the race to try and win, taking it easy and not going for broke is the antithesis of my enjoyment. Now, that being said I only play offline, and I mostly enjoy time trialing Nurburgring, so I'm never going to be punting into the side of your car in a virtual race. But it's kind of curious how some forms of enjoyment are apparently more valid than others...
@@theKashConnoisseur Right, so the hell with anyone else's enjoyment racing with others online, all that matters is my goal and enjoyment. If I spin you out, well sucks to be you. Got it. I wonder what the Sim Racing Steward's take is on this. What say, Jimmer?
@@Thuddster what, so you can enjoy driving for the experience but people who enjoy winning can't be competitive? Also, like I said, I don't play online. You'll never see me in a race. I'm simply posing the question, why are competitive people not allowed to push hard for the win, if that's how they get enjoyment from the game? Rubbing is racing, it's been apart of the sport long before computers were invented. You can have your leisurely sim driving experience at the back of the pack just the same as at the front.
@@theKashConnoisseur Racing with respect for others on the track is key. One can be competitive while also respecting other's racing is where it's at. Chome-horn, bounce-passing, and pitting a fellow competitor in the name of 'being competitive' is not cool. Of course, close racing will have contact at times, but it has to be tempered with self-control too. Developing respect for other racers on track comes easier for some than for others. Race clean m8!
This really told me that this game needs a Group B mod where the entire population of the area is standing on and around the road and goes running for their lives when your car comes rocketing by. Let’s get some _real_ realism in this game!
Sure, driving a group B rally car is out of reach for most of us. But, if someone offered me the opportunity, I'd probably still decline, because I like to be alive.
So there are a few videos of people driving the S1 that Audi has in their museum in Germany. And apparently, the tiers are original. So yeah, I would respectfully decline based on that alone.
Well said, EA WRC is actually great game and definitely does not deserve all this hate. In full motion rig with proper H-patter and sequential it is extremely immersive. Also the telemetry model is great, big step up from DR2.0, stages are very well made and feel live - driving it in motion rig feels amazing. For me personally it is well worth all the time I put into it as it is very fun, interesting and has lot of new content compared to all the other WRC games I usually drive - quite refreshing.
I never comment on videos, but I feel like I must share my thoughts. After not even touching my sim setup for a couple of months, this video inspired me grab my wheel from the corner and try this same challenge. I'm typing this comment with sweaty armpits and an aching back after what has been the most fun session behind the virtual wheel since I can remember. As in the video Jimmy said, sim racing is not all about being competitive and fast all the time, sometimes the best parts are the ones where you drive horribly and flip the car over it's roof 3 times in one stage :D Thank you Jimmy for inspiring me to get back behind the sim wheel and enjoying rallying again.
I know this is a game but when that door comes off, I can't help but think of being impaled by a million twigs and branches as you crash sideways into the trees, with no door to protect you.
we love rally content jimmer, even when sometimes you forget to speak it really gives a sense of what rally is and was and how truly demanding it is, keep it coming
One of the things i really like about you jimmer is that you are so grounded. Its really refreshing, as in many youtubers its sadly not the case. Theres an elitist crowd in sim racing too, that ive noticed anyway. But you dont seem to be like that, you come across as a lad who just loves to drive in sim, enjoys it and soaks up the experience and immersion of each sim. Fair play to you mate, you make sim racing feel more inviting to someone like myself, who is trying to get the money together for my first rig. You have inspired me and many others and long may it continue. Keep enjoying yourself brother. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
I've been having a lot of fun with this game Jimmy actually sold me on it when it first came out and he did a few stages. One superficial gripe I have with it is that the particle effects are really underwhelming. Even in dry conditions on a gravel stage the dust being lifted behind the car is comically small, given how actual rally cars kick up a 50 meter cloud of dust sometimes. It makes the replays looks like a toy car is going around
the trick to lumpy turbo cars is to keep on throttle a press the brake instead while still holding the accelerator,and then when youre pointing the right way let go and it bursts out of the corner, use brake sparingly to keep the turbo alive
@@yappingfornothing Yes, but turboera happened 20+ years past the said timeframe. It should be noted here that superchargers in general appeared more than half a century before Formula 1. In other words, back in the 19th century. One of the first superchargers installed on a Grand Prix race car was the Mercedes-Benz Kompressor, which was installed on Mercedes 6/40/65 PS cars from 1923. Turbochargers appeared about 20 years later, at the beginning of the 20th century, but the automotive world paid less attention to them. Since the 30s, some models were equipped with turbos, but the popularity of them has began closer to the 70s.
I think Rally Pacifico was meant to be Rally Indonesia, which FIA and WRC promoters has yet to confirm returning in the future. Those stages are based from old Rally Indonesia stages which was based in Sumatra
even wrc8.. gave me so many fun moments while i took a break from just constant time pushing and gt3/4 racing. This is actualy a simracers "touch-grass" moment. You almost want to stop and smell the roses some times looking at that scenery...
If you really love these cars and want to see them in real life I would recommend going to the eifel rallye festival or rally legend. The eifel rallye festival is 20-30 minutes south of the nurburgring, so a known area for you. I’m going there for the last 6 years now and it is really cool.
"Through this stage that I've already forgotten the name of..." Let's be honest Jimmy, you never knew its name to begin with! It's not just getting to drive these awesome cars that simracing is good for though, I never got to see these cars in the wild and to not just get to watch you now but to do it from onboard is an amazing experience in itself.
Sim racing to me is a way to keep me from doing dumb s*** behind the wheel of a car like I used to do when I was younger. Assetto and SRP have kept me out of jail brother. Thanks for the hard work Jimmy
love the message that sim racing is for the love of it, too many folks are caught up in their rating or w/e - preach Jimmy! Grow the sport for the love of the sport.
Theres something incredibly reassuring about watching a real race car driver with the fancy sim rig crashing, spinning, and missing corners the same as a more casual player
I have a feeling that gt3 cars have a possibility of being a part of your future jimmy come on. Literally the most humble of humble youtubers I absolutely love it hahaha
Having just watched Jimmy win a race in an M4 GT3 car on the Nurburgring and then watching him struggle to keep a Group B car on the road in EA WRC makes me feel a little bet better about my... 'inconsistent' performances in the Dirt games. Being able to tell where you're supposed to go does help quite a bit in a race.
I suck at most sim racing titles, especially rally games. I do have a wheel (a fancy G923 now) but rarely use it. That said, I always love to have my titles reasonably realistic. Hopefully this video will inspire me for WRC. Thanks Jim.

I do admit, the Audi is one of my favourites too. and that turbo noise with all the wastegate chirps releasing that 21psi ish of boost when you come off it! just music.
It kinda amazes me how well sim racing scales. You've made it all the way to GT4 IRL, ya know? Sometimes it's easy to mistakenly think you must be over sim racing. But you've always said, the great thing about sim racing is that it lets you do things you can't do IRL. And yeah, you're in GT4 (hopefully GT3 at some point, right?!) but you're right, you will never get a chance to drive a Group B car in anger (among many others) and that's true for everyone, even Max Verstappen, ya know? It's just kinda cool how, no matter how far you get, there's always something fun to sim 😊
Glad I’m not the only one who had to pause the video 20 seconds in to interject NO CHANCE AT GT3?! Jimmer, you’re DREAMING if you think you won’t be in a GT3 car within the next 3 years
I love racing on Dirt rally 2.0 to this day. Hop into my rig and slap a vr headset on and start slinging my 911 around those corners (with telepathic rear engine prediction correction) and after a tough stage I literally have to go walk around and get some water because my face is covered in sweat from working the wheel so fast
Tip for cars with no handbrake (or of you like to make the stage harder): when you are on the entry of the hairpin turn HARD and use the brake like some sort of a turning system😁
Just drove this beast for the first time in ea wrc and it is the ultra hard mode of this game for me. But after 6-7 stages I started feeling it better and sometimes even finish a stage from the first try. Still, it requires full concentration.
Ah, the era of group B. Other drivers used to dislike having to follow a Quattro (especially the S1) through a non-tarmac special stage because of the way the Audi used to tear up the road surface. I think it was Stig Blomqvist who once said something along the lines of "these are the same stages, with the same rocks and the same trees, that we drove last year with 137 horsepower. But now we have 450 horsepower." Makes you think, doesn't it?
The reason behind the passion and admiration for certain cars and certain generations, is imperfections. Imperfections give cars their character, and the character is what draws us to them.
so I kinda wanna see you do the same in the 037. Because that would be MY favourite group B car. Also I distinctly remember you going on about how the Peugeot is your fav :D
not much, audi wasn't good it was just the first awd car, and it got to be first by stealing awd system from one of the first awd systems out there. Audis to this day that use this system have absolutely horrendous weight distribution and are terrible at turning thanks to the poorly engineered awd system
"What is Sim Racing to You ? to me, it is a way to get as close as possible to the cars I've no hoping hell in driving". --> push the pedals with socks.

I do admit, the Audi is one of my favourites too. and that turbo noise with all the wastegate chirps releasing that 21psi ish of boost when you come off it! just music.
It kinda amazes me how well sim racing scales. You've made it all the way to GT4 IRL, ya know? Sometimes it's easy to mistakenly think you must be over sim racing. But you've always said, the great thing about sim racing is that it lets you do things you can't do IRL. And yeah, you're in GT4 (hopefully GT3 at some point, right?!) but you're right, you will never get a chance to drive a Group B car in anger (among many others) and that's true for everyone, even Max Verstappen, ya know?
It's just kinda cool how, no matter how far you get, there's always something fun to sim 😊
in groub b they used left foor brake and still stay on the throttle a bit to help with turbo lag
The s1 quattro as described by Walter Rohrl "a car so fast that your brain cant keep up"
5:27 Loved the "radio" effect on your voice here!
from finishing the quali for the 24h to going back to the shed and playing wrc within hours. spectacular lad, very dedicated
Lets be real Jimmy, you're already smashing around in a GT4, GT3 doesn't looks very far away from there. Hope to see you in one!
HEY I'M SCROLLSNUMBERONE, THE DUDE IN 6TH ON THE LEADERBOARDS. Congrats on beating me jimmer!!!
Jimmer says "This Audi Quattro S1 is the coolest rally car EVER!!!"
Rally Buddha he say "Have you not heard of the Hillman Avenger??"
Exactly brother. Best car in the game.
The editing on this video, chef's kiss!
Glad I’m not the only one who had to pause the video 20 seconds in to interject
NO CHANCE AT GT3?! Jimmer, you’re DREAMING if you think you won’t be in a GT3 car within the next 3 years
A lot of the Quattros have been modified for handbrake usage nowadays.. Even Röhrls original S1 E2 has one now.
I love racing on Dirt rally 2.0 to this day. Hop into my rig and slap a vr headset on and start slinging my 911 around those corners (with telepathic rear engine prediction correction) and after a tough stage I literally have to go walk around and get some water because my face is covered in sweat from working the wheel so fast
0:53 Jimmy did a decent pronunciation of the stage name only coming off at the last couple vowels.
Jimmy reminds me so much of Richard Hammond when I see him driving sim. Something about how much fun he's having \
In your next video, can you please drive a group b rwd car in the snow. Its tons of fun!
Tip for cars with no handbrake (or of you like to make the stage harder): when you are on the entry of the hairpin turn HARD and use the brake like some sort of a turning system😁
That foot cam explains to me why my legs and ankles get tired after 30 minutes of playing a rally game.
Just drove this beast for the first time in ea wrc and it is the ultra hard mode of this game for me. But after 6-7 stages I started feeling it better and sometimes even finish a stage from the first try. Still, it requires full concentration.
Nice job on the qualify this weekend. 2nd in class and 42nd overall.
Just went through this stage in Dirt Rally and I cannot explain how mad it made me
Ah, the era of group B. Other drivers used to dislike having to follow a Quattro (especially the S1) through a non-tarmac special stage because of the way the Audi used to tear up the road surface.
I think it was Stig Blomqvist who once said something along the lines of "these are the same stages, with the same rocks and the same trees, that we drove last year with 137 horsepower. But now we have 450 horsepower." Makes you think, doesn't it?
The reason behind the passion and admiration for certain cars and certain generations, is imperfections.
Imperfections give cars their character, and the character is what draws us to them.
The Mythbusters cement truck explosion after he said add effects made me laugh.
Jimmy: this a bit of it of a treat...
The very next corner: tree?
Closest you could get to this is taking a ride with Stig Blomqvist through the rally stage at Goodwood
I kinda love this game the sounds the feel from the cars even on controller is brilliant dirt rally 3
I was not expecting the "estoy cansado jefe". I craked 😂
Glad to see EA WRC again! ❤
so I kinda wanna see you do the same in the 037. Because that would be MY favourite group B car. Also I distinctly remember you going on about how the Peugeot is your fav :D
We've gone beyond Doorbent.
Jimmy Doorgone
Love the use of the samir video, perfect timing
Only came across your channel such great content and enjoyable to watch
Jimmy and a turbo box, it just feels right
I wonder how much slower the 037 really was with 2wd
Depends on the event, it was faster on twisty tarmac like Corsica at time, and was decent in Kenya.
@@AmbientMike and that'd I'd like to see :)
@@fillman86 theres a bit of good historic footage but hard to follow full rallies from the early group B days. when AWD was a bit more privative.
not much, audi wasn't good it was just the first awd car, and it got to be first by stealing awd system from one of the first awd systems out there. Audis to this day that use this system have absolutely horrendous weight distribution and are terrible at turning thanks to the poorly engineered awd system
"What is Sim Racing to You ? to me, it is a way to get as close as possible to the cars I've no hoping hell in driving".
--> push the pedals with socks.
Taking on this in the white sports socks is peak Jimmy
Watching your feet is fascinating, here I am in my plimsolls because driving like a granny on my G29 pedals, and you're heel and toeing in your socks. Madness.
Ringmeister had a week of the WRX Cars. I ended up winning two of those races and having a blast in a couple others.
Great Vid now im goin to Give it a Go on my New DD+. Awesome Driving Great Footwork Cheers!!!
12:15 Nice! Great Aircodynamics without doors and better sound. Why do we need doors anyway :D
