The most fun you can have driving is driving fast off-road/crazy bumpy, rocky dirt roads.
I absolutely don't understand the 2 mph rock-crawler Jeep community.
.
However, driving quickly off-road does tend to break stuff on your vehicle, so that's a thing.  But damn, it's fun!
It's about conquest, overcoming the insurmountable.

I can drive on bumpy roads in anything.  Some vehicles do it better than others but even a Yugo can make it across a bumpy road.

Ascending or descending something that 99% of vehicles find completely impassable though--- that's something unique and special.

It's the same as building a ship in a bottle:  slow, tedious, and boring.  imo

I invite you to go 50+ mph on an ungraded dirt road in a Yugo, btw.  I hope your thumb works, because you're gonna need to hitch a ride.

I've done overlanding, I've done rock crawling, I've done back country driving on washboards to get to pristine remote camping.  I enjoy a little something about all of it.

There are a lot of passions out there that I, and many others, don't "understand", as if our understanding is somehow necessary for them to be passions.

Probably not really sporty ...

I guess the brakes are up to it?

The tow vehicle's brakes should not be doing any of the stopping for a trailer, the trailer's own brakes are tasked with that responsibility.
