Having problems with snows (ice arean)? Let me ask you this first, do you prefer a clean race. or just beat these special condition events and get over with it? Because I can help you pass these snow courses easily with my way (not clean race) . Just get any rally car has slightly higher power than AI cars, put NOS. During race use WALLRIDE technique, slide your car against outside wall and accelerate hard. (do not hit the wall with head first. slow down, and turn alittle so your body or rear hit the wall first, this way you wont get penality and you will have much fast speed through the corner.) AI does not stand a chance.

You can try the Impreza 22B, or the Mitsubishi Lancer TME. Remember to break early and slide through the corners till you're past the apex, then accelerate. You'll have to be a little gentle on the throttle for a smooth ride.
Or you go for the "no clean" option as mentioned above with a group B rally car.

I really struggled with the rallys, and dreaded them..... then
I forked over the cash for this....Evo Super rally car. I wanted to race clean for the most part, I have had to slop it up a bit when I made a big mistake to catch up though.

I was able to beat the normal races with this car "stock", I just had to adjust the gearing to be shorter. When I got to the hard races I got the upgraded turbo and had to stretch out 3rd gear a bit to keep from bouncing off the limiter.

With this set up I start in 3rd gear and usually take turns a gear higher than it tells me.

I actually blitzed the rallys on snow with a 430BHP Evo VIII MR, drove cleanly and had some fun doing it!

Hell yeah, the EVO Super rally car is da bomb!

I'd actually recommend a car no one here talks about: the Mitsubishi CZ-3 Tarmac Rally Car. Great handling on snow, nice balance. Overall, probably the most underrated car in the game.

 

[Zardoz]

The Big Three of GT4 rally cars:

The two stated above (Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Super Rally Car '03, Mitsubishi CZ-3 Tarmac Rally Car '02), plus the Subaru Impreza Rally Car Prototype '01.

Use any of these three, and if you're still having trouble, use the wall-riding technique exactly as detailed above by STi04. Remember to not hit the wall first with the front bumper, and you can sleaze your way to an easy win. Just cut the wheel over, tap the brakes, and the car will get a little crossed up for you and tag the wall with the rear bumper. No penalty is assessed. Once on the wall, punch it.

Then you can come back later with an older car and run the event clean for some "honest" fun.

I used the 206 Rally and won it by a pretty large margin. Than went back and beat it with the RS200 road car, by a second or two. Just remember to brake far before the turn, get your back end around for the corner, and ease onto the gas out of the corner so you don't just spin your tires in the snow. 👍

Indeed. On my first game I used a Scooby Prototype. On the second I used a Lancia Delta Rally Car. The third time through I used a 206 Rally Car and blew everything away without power upgrades.

I caved after struggling in the Hard grand canyon rallies with the RS rally car and bought the Super rally car, it had less power and was heavier but the rallies became much easier for me, a few laps to get used to the handling and I easily won every snow and dirt rally with it. I'm tuning a Focus RS now to rally specs and will repeat the rallies with it.

 

[the real 6c]

i actually had a hard time with the rallies until i tured off all the assists. I forgot to do this and was way faster without them. although this sounds likeit would make the driving harder....the asm was doing something to the handling and i couldn't drive it like its supposed to be.

Ice rallying is very different from gravel. Because of the severe lack of traction, you will find that accelerating in the corners. Instead, control your speed and slow down by using a little braking and shifting down. If you brake too late too hard, you will hit the snow bank.

slide around the corner before the curve comes, and control the throttle below 50%. because more will make it slide towards the outside. When you are past the apex going for the exit, slowly increase the throttle to accelerate and do this controlled driving in the snow and you should be fine.

 

[exhorst]

just practice, i found snow very hard first too, especially with the DFP wheel, with all the oppy lock you have to put in. just remember as soon as you acc out of a corner put oppy lock in otherwise ur a gonna in to the wall. just practice on the Chamonix track very slowly at first, then gradually increase, it is more fun than it sounds but it is very rewarding because now i can beat the Chamonix license time trial getting the gold by over 4 seconds consistently

Then "Boff!", the AI hits you and you get a 5s penalty...

I've had some success using HEAVIER vehicles (even adding ballast). Or slam that rear end into the wall. Or go cheap and use the Dodge Ram.

 

[Skant]

The snow isn't actually so hard as it seems. It's just that people usually attack it completely wrong at first.

#1 Don't spin the tires like mad. Full throttle is not your friend in the snow. Feather the throttle to keep the tires spinning just a little. WRC teams often take horsepower out of their cars in order to have better throttle modulation on the snow... horsepower gets you _nothing_ on snow.

#2 Don't let the car go too fast. It's very easy to develop far too much speed for the next turn. It takes so much longer to get the car turned when it comes in too fast that high straightaway speeds are wasted.


Basically... just take it easy. Don't over drive the car. It won't be anywhere near as fast in the snow as it is elsewhere. And if you try to make it go just as fast, you'll just get slower still. Patience is a big virtue on the snow.

When you're doing it right, you'll quickly find that the computer is very easy to beat on snow.

the subaru rally car is good the newest one

 

[blitzen25bm]

i do real good in all the off road rallys with the dodge ram or the 206 rally. i used the 20 to get the escundo so i can just get all the rallys done with.

 

[vr6gti72]

I just won the Escudo.....The evo super RC is perfect for my driving style, I still need to do the grand canyon HARD, Im dreading that.....thats a tough course

Just find the car that fits your style. Some use a 20k truck....and others (me) feel better with a 1.2 mil car.....this car has made rallying fun though and not a chore.
