FYI if you drive a real WRX or GRC car you will see that they also have difficulties with nosediving too. So maybe it's quite accurate :)
but it's not accurate for RC buggies...

Car is fine on IBR Padova. And many other "real" off-road tracks.
yeah I hear you. but rally is based on e-buggy, and that car nosedives too, on some jump on nearly every track. I'm very familiar with it.
the problem actually is with all the spec cars: spec electric buggy, spec rally x, spec nitro buggy, spec short course.
you can't correct a nosedive with throttle (once it's started to nosedive), whereas with the mod car you can. but if you ensure your takeoff is good it's possible to avoid it most (but not all) of the time. yes, I agree, the design of some jump faces makes it worse/more difficult...

The table jump is a big fun killer!
The Rally Spec car can jump a few laps the same and the just nose landing...
Better stopping the Rally Project and spend the time and money for new 1:8 Buggy tracks, that is what the most people in VRC and in the real RC Car World are Racing.
we like to get new racers into VRC with Rally X... Where are all the tenths of thousends of 'real world' rc racers anyway? If you prefer buggy over Rally X that's your choice, others like it.

Have to remember, that week after week VRC is getting new members. Even this track is relative simple and easy, for rookies this is one challenge, especially with rally cars slippery behaviour.
With rally cars, you have to be very careful with throttle and brake that you`ll manage to go round without mistakes.
But i agree with others, that jump has something weird. With 13.5 SC, if you get perfect line and speed from earlier corner to backstraight, it will flip your car. With these "perfect speeds", chassis hits to ground and this affects nose dive?

With the Short Course Truck the front flip problem is really extreme!!!
There must be a problem with the car or the car physics in general.
Every 4WD car lift up the nose when you stay on the throttle, but there is zero reaction from the car.
the rally car is supposed to drive differently from the buggies and sc trucks, else it would be more of the same. The difference is in nthe wheel and tire inertias. The rally car is between on- and off-road...

Re: nosediving
this is more of a problem with the spec cars than with any track in particular... I think the fix would be with the car not the tracks

Do not change the car. Just a hint of grip maybe...
But that jump is messed again. But it is possible to run that without flipping.

On the layout the Rally X tracks are meant to be simpler than normal off-road tracks. For this one I opted to remove the smaller jumps and go for a much bumpy surface.
I really like the track! It's supposed to be simple, and the bumps and powersliding are great fun!
