Nice idea . And reduced speed (compared to Canyon), so it'll work with narrow roads and tight bends. Rally Monte Carlo and a car like the good old Lancia Stratos

Yes, reduced speed but still need a fair amount of drifting in the

MOUNTAIN RALLY. Just like a real rally.

Not as much drifting as in Canyon but more than in Stadium.

A heavier car would do that. Controlled drifting on gravel, dirt or tarmac would mean times based more on control than holding your breath and going all out with a bit of luck.

Heavy car, quick accelleration and low top speed would do the trick

isn't this contradictory?

Sure, but I think what he means is a heavier car with more horsepower and torque. This way on gravel and dirt you get more gravel flinging, dirt spitting drift, and the HP would offer more control and yet on pavement with grip it would still give you acceleration power.
I don't recall an environment yet with a four wheel drive vehicle.

No, why? Why can't a heavy car accellerate quickly while having a low top speed?
If you rip sentences appart, of course it looks silly

A heavy vehicle cannot accelerate quickly, simply because of physics, even if it has a powerfull engine.

Please give good examples for such "cars"... with characteristics

A 2013 F1 car at about 650 kg accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in about 1.7 sec.

A Bugatti Veyron at 1880 kg accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in about 2.5 sec.

In this context I say the Bugatti is heavy like an oiltanker compared to the F1 but it still has very quick acceleration compared to my 840 kg Ford Fiesta.

Sorry, but your comparison is not valid.
The Bugatty Veyron can reach > 400km/h, it might even be faster than F1 cars then
So it definitely has not a low top speed
