Anyone's got an idea on how to become a rally official like a steward?  

Years ago, RSO ran a steward school. I don't know if there has been one recently or if there are plans to have more.

Most other "officials" learn the ropes volunteering at different events, but in the case of stewards, something more structured is probably a good idea, if only to formalize the job and ensure consistency.

Thanks for your responses guys. I appreciate it.
I'll check with CARS if they have any rules manual or I'll procure it from FIA.
In most cases there will be a manual called the National Competition Rules ( NCR )which is prepared by an ASN as per the FIA regulations. And the NCR prescribes the rules & regulations for all the national, regional & club events. In fact the Supplementary Regulations (SUPS) have to be drafted with the help of the NCR and the national organising body ( like CARS ) approves the SUPS after careful scrutiny in case of  national & regional events. And as for the Marshal Manual, it is a derivative of the NCR. Almost all the marshals are required to be familiar with the NCR for the simple reason that.... a marshal is a ' Judge of Fact " during the event. Hence, a marshal can be summoned by the Stewards in case of a dispute.
In my view, every paid/active member must have the Rules Book. It helps him/her as well as the organising club during any event.
Guess I'll leave it here for now.
Man! I need a drink now!!

You do not receive a Rule book unless you are a licensed driver.

You can I believe purchase a Rule book from CARS however you can go to the CARS web site and download.

I have both but like the download as it is searchable with Acrobat Reader
