This video offers a comprehensive guide to building and tuning rally cars in Forza Horizon 5, emphasizing a nuanced approach that balances performance across various surfaces.
Car Choice: The presenter stresses that lighter cars generally perform better, making older models a good starting point. While all-wheel drive is ideal for higher performance classes, rear-wheel drive can be surprisingly effective in lower classes (A and below) due to recent physics improvements, particularly for controlled oversteer.
Build Considerations:
Tuning Nuances:
Troubleshooting:
The guide concludes by noting that these principles largely apply to cross-country racing, with the main difference being the need for larger tires, more suspension travel, and higher ride height for extreme terrain and jumps.
