DRIFT
If the car is experiencing oversteer entering a corner while travelling
too fast or drifting, the rear wheels of the car may lock, and the
player will lose control. If this situation occurs, steer the car in the
opposite direction to which the car is travelling. Doing so will restore
control of the car. This technique is known either as reverse or
counter steering and is one of the core rally techniques.
TIRE GRIP
Try clearing corners using tire grip, i.e. without drifting
▲
It is faster to clear a corner using tire grip than drifting. Use tire grip to achieve a faster time.
PARTIAL ACCELERATION
When cornering, keep the level of acceleration at a level less than maximum. This
technique will help keep tire grip around corners and areas where grip is poor.
TUCK-IN
While cornering, in order to maintain front tire grip, ease off the accelerator. This will help
prevent understeer. This technique is especially useful for cars with front wheel drive.
UNDERSTEER Results when the front tires
have less grip than the rear.
The effect is for the car to
stray towards the outside of
the track.
OVERSTEER
Results when the rear tires
have less grip than the front.
The effect is for the car to
stray towards inside of the
track.

TECHNIQUES
To achieve the fastest time possible, master the following basic techniques.
DRIFT
Used to negotiate tight corners. There are
two kinds of drift – acceleration drift and
braking drift.
ACCELERATION DRIFT
BRAKING DRIFT
1.
Ease off the accelerator.
2.
While continuing to steer in the direction
of the corner, step on the accelerator.
3.
When the car begins to drift, turn the
steering in the opposite direction to the
corner, line up the body of the car with
the road and ease off the acceleration.
(More effective in tight corners than acceleration drift)
1.
Ease off the accelerator.
2.
Brake briefly, then while continuing to
steer in the direction of the corner, step
on the accelerator.
3.
When the car begins to drift, turn the
steering in the opposite direction to the
corner, line up the body of the car with
the road and ease off the acceleration.
HANDBRAKE
A new feature of Sega Rally 2 is the inclusion of a handbrake. Use the handbrake to
lock the back tires, forcing the car to drift. This technique is particularly useful when
negotiating hairpin corners.
