Rally starts

Recommended Posts

Is there a reason when I start on Dirt Rally my car just bogs down and take forever to accelerates the the start  the AI gets a 5 second lead in rally cross.

It could be that your car isn't fully upgraded yet. Until then you won't be as fast as the AI off the line (or anywhere).

Sounds like your TC is on. IRL, TC would keep the power way down to keep from spinning. Unfortunately, this can be bad in rally. Also, do you have launch control on?

TC and launch control won't help much, if the car isn't upgraded. The Minis on start will destroy you (if you don't have upgrades), you can catch up in the corners, but the start isn't pretty

The A.I are really fast off the line, I have tried a lot of different setups and still lag, even when I get the fastest lap time! I know I'm new at this game but I'm kinda lost at how to get off the line faster. (PS4)

Best thing to do is hold the handbrake yourself dont let the AI do it also having the assists on will kill all speed and control
