Trying to get around tracks with huge ruts in them or loose chunks of dirt laying all over the track is a headache. Try it sometime, you'll see what i mean. It might not apply to a light layer of groomed top soil, but i've never been to a track like that. The only dirt tracks i've been to that weren't hard packed clay were motocross tracks/courses.
All of what you don't like is real off-road racing... I hate tracks that are a complete freeway.

I love it when a track starts to show some ruts and you have to drive rather than just pin it between corners.
