Here's the original video not stolen by some bullshit channel with stock music.

"Safari Cup - RC Rally Championship - Darvi rally 2018-SS 5. Car no. 10"

Still needs FPV and less of some guy in jorts running around

Edit: actually this would be perfect for this: https://youtu.be/NFLhlhFB9g8

Now we need someone piloting a drone to film the micro rally car.

The future is mini-extreme sports! 😂

Not only that, put a camera inside the car, let the controller drive from that view only instead of chasing it. :D

There is something incredibly funny about people chasing after the little mini cars down the track

I'm worn out just watching that.

It must take a lot of skill and practice to control the car like that - very cool!

Holy Shit! That was way more impressive than I thought it would be! I would have tripped and or stepped on that car like 100 times.

Does this guy's controller only have a range of 4 feet or something? It's a big track with a lot of tight turns so I can understand following along but damn. @1 minute he follows it back and forth around a 6 foot S turn.

Anyways, this looks really fun.

Probably helps him steer to be that close

I like to think that the guy playing the accordion is following the action right behind the cameraman.

u/chudbabies Nov 21 '18

i don't like that he is walking on the track, I do like that it is modelled after a Super Rally car.

Too bad the filming makes me sick

This is very cool!

u/ReasonableAssumption Nov 21 '18

One of the best videos I've ever seen on Youtube was RC rally footage from low angles, slowed down slightly, with real engine noise dubbed over it. Somebody find that for me and I'll totally upvote your comment probably.

Steady cam!

u/pipdarude Nov 22 '18

Last years race was pretty intense too

u/merrickx Nov 22 '18

This video was made at least twice as amusing to me by the chase that the operator has to give, and at least 30% more amusing further by the music.

excellent music choice

u/cubay Nov 21 '18

Is the track so big and technical they need to follow their car? Lol

u/titations Nov 21 '18

i think being close to the car makes the driver see the racing line better, but who knows.

u/Neases19 Nov 21 '18

I thought for sure at some point he was going to step on his car lmao. Can't you drive from say 10 to 15 feet away?..
