It's an affordable works car
What is important for dirt trials is how to transmit power to the road surface without loss. In order to maintain high speed on low friction roads, the point is how to improve stability and keep all four wheels on the ground. When it comes to dirt, many people immediately think of drifting and enjoy flashy countersteering, but in reality, grip driving is the basics. Drivers are always making efforts to increase speed while paying close attention to traction.
Therefore, the higher the level of the machine, the more advanced the driving technique is required on the dirt, and there are many cases where understeer occurs when riding a dirt track. It's outdated now that you're running like you're running a tail just because it's dirt.
However, the Cultus GTI, which can be said to be Suzuki's works car, is a car that can be tried without anxiety from beginners to advanced riders. This machine was set up by Suzuki Sports, led by Mr. Tajima, who can be said to be a leading figure in the dirt track world. It was a machine that the manager of the JIM showroom participated in the All-Star Dirt Trial A1 class in 1990. Since the same thing as this is available as a complete car, it can be said that it is the commercialization of a works machine.
High grounding property with high balance
To be honest, the handling of the Cultus GT in normal mode is at a level that makes you want to close your eyes.
It's so solid that you won't believe you're wearing shoes, so you don't feel uneasy about the feeling of grounding. It is reassuring that the four wheels are always gripping the road surface because of the extremely high front-to-rear balance and the large suspension stroke. Even if you are mean and try hard braking from high speed, quick turns, etc., the feeling of ground contact in the rear is not lost.
So it makes no sense to try to drift on a tarmac with a high grip level. On a subtle note, performance on pavement never
It was like a high-revving engine that revs up without a hitch. However, from the moment I got into this car, the first thing that came to my mind was that his background was by no means bad.
The body is so solid that you wouldn't expect it to be a 132, and although it's a little large for this class, it's thanks to that that it has a calm riding feel. In the normal version, this was the cause of giving a dull impression, but the suspension tuning was applied, and the sharpness was greatly improved along with the marginal performance. In this class, where sharpness is the only selling point, it can be said that by incorporating stability, we have acquired a one-size-higher ability.
In particular, the high cornering performance
Even in the binding, a block-based dirt tire
It's not a high-speed tire, so it's true that it has a slip angle even at low speeds. However, because the front-rear balance is outstandingly high, in cases where drifting is intentional, the performance limit of the car will be exceeded, and the power will just be eaten away. This setting, which was born as a result of seeking high marginal performance in dirt driving, is in line with the limits of tire performance, so to speak.
The high level unique to a works machine is also greatly demonstrated in its tuning know-how. In this test drive, I was able to fully recognize its underlying strength.

Alternative universe where in 1990 lemans introduced a hot hatch class:
Honda enters their new CRX featuring the C30A V6 engine from an NSX.
VW enters a mk2 Golf GTI featuring a tuned 12 valve 2.8L VR6 engine from the Passat.
Suzuki enters their mk2 Swift GTi with a 1.6L G16B turbo charged engine
Toyota enters their EP80 starlet GT-turbo with an upgraded 1.5L 4E-FTE engine
Renault enters their brand new Clio with a 2.8L V6 from the Renault 25.
In the end Honda wins by a huge margin citing both aerodynamic efficiency and brutal grip. VW retires after 14 hours due to an overheating issue. Toyota don’t quite have the pace to keep up with the larger capacity V6 cars but the Suzuki punches way above its weight coming in second.

10 used sports cars from 9 to 18,000€: focus on the Suzuki Swift Sport
For the price of a small new city car you can have fun with a used sports car, still valiant. Focus on the third model in our selection with the 3rd generation Suzuki Swift Sport (2011 – 2017) available on the second-hand market from €9,000.

Thoughts on the Suzuki swift?
i absolutely adore the swift.
my first car was a 1995 swift GTi, 850kg and 100hp of fury. my family friend actually worked with monster tajima in the 90s on suzukis junior wrc team and the australian rally championship.
the gen 3 swift up to the latest model are less my thing, but i still really like them and i'd love to develop a 2020 swift sport hasport style K20 swap kit and race one in time attack. they have a ton of potential in the chassis, they're light weight, good geometry, decent engines, just let down by oem chassis tuning and the driveline being setup for driving to the shops.
the 5 most interesting swifts out there are the: - TRB-04 from HKS - Monster Tajima twin engine pikes peak swift/cultus (its been my wallpaper for a couple of years now) - Zuboo racing's orange time attack swift which now runs a 600hp k24 - kevin stittles K20 swift - S1600 swift sport rally car
so yeah i am confident in saying that i love a good swift...
