So, I've thought about the next challenge. Raceboy needs a vehicle that accommodates his needs. For Raceboy, this needs to be a vehicle that is roomy, reliable, and above all SAFE for his kiddo and family. I can think of no better car than the Volvo 850R. But since the last challenge was too easy and we got a top 5, I am upping the difficulty. Everyone seemed to like my stupid challenge idea so here we go: Day 1 of asking you to engine swap a Volvo 850R into S class. You must FINISH the race in REVERSE. You can't just simply throw it in reverse at the finish line either, it needs to be in reverse for a decent amount of time.
@@RocketHamsterz54 as much as I’d love to do the backwards driving, I wouldn’t want to take anyone out. It’s also basically impossible to drive reverse at speed lol. I’ll think about the rest of it though. We’ll see!
@@ElGoogKO it is dirty. Doing "strong defensive" against another car that is clearly faster than you and failing to control your car and maintain a line would be determined as a foul in real life motorsport events and a penalty would be issued to you by race officials. This is a common sense in motorsport: if you can maintain similar speed as your opponent and you defend by driving predictable defensive lines following all those restriction rules on the leading car, then you are doing defending instead of being dirty. If you are clearly slower than your opponent and you "defend" but cannot maintain predictable lines, it is blocking and dirty. The NV guy in this video clearly were sliding everywhere in corners when he was trying to "defend", that's just dirty intention and bad driving. Motorsport relies on predictable driving manner to keep everyone safe on track, which is why there are more restrictions on the leading car than on the car behind. If you do something beyond your limit and make your driving unpredictable, you are effectively putting everyone around you in danger.
@@ElGoogKOrunning someone off a chicane when they’re entering a corner side by side is dirty Making multiple direction changes on a straight isn’t defending, it’s blocking He wasn’t egregiously terrible but he was dirty on multiple occasions
I’m wondering if even as an experienced racer are there any particular corners or series of corners you found or still find challenging to get right consistently?
@@ElGoogKO these are just public lobbies, no need to drive super aggressive. I’ve raced in top level competitions enough, I don’t need to sweat on defence for these! I’d rather relax and have some fun :). It’s not like we’re racing for prizing.
Great race the Mustang vs Porsche. 917 Porsche on another level, best car ever!

Maybe donate some $$ to his twitch and he'll do it faster this time

@@Raceboy77 You got this, you need that Volvo in your life to protect your kiddo!!
@@RocketHamsterz54 Completely agree, safety in first place always
NV sucks
That NV guy was about as dirty as they come.
that isn't dirty, that is strong handed defensive
ran him off several times, at the very least very aggressive 😂
@@ElGoogKO It is dirty to me. I wish raceboy didnt let him pass. Rest of my day is now ruined..

should’ve made the video 9 minutes and 18 seconds.😂 love this car and love your videos.

Good race get ya next time .
Surprising how you didn’t gift wrap a tree this race…
Tell me please. In the game, I subscribe to the players who do the tuning. Is there a limit on the number of people I subscribe to?
You need to drive more aggressive and defend stronger..look how that mustang was bullying into keeping the place

@@Raceboy77also they are public lobbies. If you defend they might just ram you out anyways.
