Looking to get into rally
04/03/8 at 08:44:42

Hello everyone

I just picked up a 96 Legacy 5spd from my buddy in Bufflo and I'm looking to get into rally. I've never raced before so does anyone have any suggestions for me on where to start? I would like to keep it pretty much stock maybe adding a roll cage... Grin

(might need it lol). Eventually my plan is to rip the motor out when im finshed with it and slap it in my 97 Impreza wgn and bore and stroke it. Any help would be appreciated guys.

If its not broken, your not trying hard enough!

Here's the standard advice:

1. Get a rule book.
2. Buying a used rally car with a cage already in it is usually cheaper than building one yourself.
3. You can rallyX the car the way it is now. Come out to some rallyX's this summer and get some practice time in.
4. Volunteer to help out at performance rally's (Black Bear, Tall Pines). You'll meet lots of people who can help you and who'll give you good advice.
5. Enter navigational rally's so you and you co-driver can practice timing calculations and working together.

The MLRC runs the only summer RallyX series in the province right now. The dates are July 27, Aug 31, Sept 28, and Oct 26 and they will all be held near Bancroft. More details will be posted soon.

Both MLRC and MCO (Motorsports Club of Ottawa) run winter RallyX events.
