Rallying has become much popular these days as people want to spend time in leisure activities and take a break from monotonous office work. This sport gives you the specific feel of adventure and simultaneously the refreshment that one needs in dull, hectic life. While driving in rusty rally racing some points are important to consider like anticipation, feeling the grip and force, concentration only on the race rather than any other distractions otherwise this may lead to serious health hazard and the driver and co-driver must be well rested before the rally race championship.
Rallying is adventure motorsport which is organized on public or private roads with modifications in the production or specifically built cars. Special tracks and checkpoints are fixed in this sport. Also, one needs to cross away all the hurdles in order to win the game. Some of the rally races are purely based on speed and some on tactics. What measure one should follow to be rally race champion and also how to keep the car intact to win? Let us try, to sum up, all the points that will help us in winning the rally car racing.
- Warming up the car before winter is a must. Temperature maintenance is important irrespective of what the weather is. The operating temperature of the vehicle should be according to the weather and working condition. This will help the vehicle to support your ride in a better way. Perfect operating temperature also helps in reducing the wear and tear of the engine and critical components.
- One should not jump or slip the clutch; it must be released with proper speed not very slowly and not very quickly. Also, it will reduce premature failure of the clutch.
- When thinking about rally driving race rides, one should not go for full steering angles. Turning fully to a single angle will destroy the power steering capacity. This will further wear out driveline components like FWD and AWD/4WD vehicles. When hurdles are to be crossed in a rally race then one should be very careful towards full steering angles with aggressive throttles or quick and harsh brake inputs, they are specifically to be avoided.
- Braking should be very gentle; it should not be quick and aggressive. One should also remember this important thing that the braking should be very gentle for a long time; this also may reduce the actual capacity of power steering. Braking for a longer time can heat the brake system and even may lead to full brake failure.
- On roads, bumps should be avoided if possible as these damages the soft parts of the vehicle. Also, potholes are to specifically avoided, they harm the vehicle. The bad outcomes of vehicles traveling for a long time on bumps and potholes are reduced suspension ability, bottoming out, breaking or bending up of suspension components and more flattening up of tires. If the tires get flattened then maintenance cost of the vehicle increases.
- If you are facing or hearing any unusual noises from the vehicle then check for how serious the matter is. If you feel that you cannot judge the situation then consult your mechanic. Very small grinding noise, rattle or clunk may be just a first indication of the problem started but they need to be fixed as early as possible. Such problems are easy to deal with if dealt when the issue or noise starts rather than when the problem becomes major.
- Tires are one of the most important parts of the vehicle. Tire pressure changes with temperature and pressure. Choose the type of tires which are good for all the seasons. If you plan to drive hard in winters then go for all winter tires. It is true that changing the tires may change the European road trip driving style of your vehicle. With this, interference in suspension or other components may be seen. Also, this can alter speedometer readings sometimes.
- Fuel tanks need special care when traveling for a long time. Fuel tank should always be approximately full as temperature hover around freezing point.
