It's a feeling you will be chasing for hours as you try and nail your sector times, as well. Even so, throwing the brake on, getting it around the corner with my co-driver purring sweet directions in my ear (we are very close), and feeling that torque hit the wheel and the surface just feels right. The car reacts much better now with the lighter touch, though my reaction to the corner didn't quite live up to the success of my second start. This time, I'm a bit looser on the throttle, getting that grip in and waiting for the moment to put my foot down. He restarts the special stage for me to have a second try. Sitting upright in my chair, I get a sympathetic look from the PR who has just seen me make first contact between a lamppost and '22 season rally car engine.
And then we have other reflections on 'how do we make it enjoyable in terms of driving?' What is the thing that we can change on this part of the car to make the experience the same as you have today in the real world?" We are really deep in the engine parts and the electrical parts: how it's mixed, how it works. "So, we've got technical information on how it works already. "We've got a direct contract with the company that developed the hybrid system, which is Compact Dynamics," says Jarniou. The team at KT Racing had to set out early to get this right. You will see if you play the game, the small blue indicators that show pull power for acceleration, then recharge when you brake."
Then, when you brake, you get the power back and then you can reuse your energy. When you when you get the power, for - depending on your mapping - something like 4, 3, or 5 seconds, then nothing. You can imagine in terms of the kinds of roads you have to drive and that kind of stuff. "3 is less torque, less power, for a longer time. And then you can change to 1, 2, or 3," he explains. It means you can have lots of power quickly, but not for long. "Exactly! Like in the real world, you have a choice of what they call maps. Jarniou laughs when I tell him how out of control I got. Despite my inadequacies, it feels great and the cars definitely have that '22 season character. The force feedback kicked in as the rear totally escaped me, punching me further left and. Straight off the line, slamming my accelerator down obliterated any traction I had with the gritty, rough road twisting through small, brown hilltop villages. I found out quickly that keeping that kind of torque under control was tricky. In short, this means you get a serious pace off the line or out of a corner as the electric motor kicks in. This year, the change has been to hybrid rally cars using 100kW electric motors and 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engines using bio-fuel.
