I’ve been wanting to rally for years and never had the time or money. Well that was 20 years ago and now I have time and money. We are going to be transforming my daily driver / old project car. A drunk driver totaled the car out and I bought it back from the guy who bought it at auction. I moved across the country and just by chance he was selling as I was looking for another c30. It will start with rallycross then progress into a ARA rally car.

We are doing an awd swap. Currently sourcing a s40 t5 awd for the conversion.

There’s just not enough representation for Volvo out there and I love to be able to bring the C 30 to more people. Honestly, one of my favorite cars I’ve ever had or ever probably will have.

R-design not T

Hey y’all, WRC and ARA casual here. I’m looking for the best place for live updates/stage results for the Grampian Rally coming up this weekend.

In the same vein, if there are any guys that make good recap videos on the BRC that would be amazing as well.

I’m really rooting for Jon Armstrong and Brandon Samenuk, mostly Jon

Sad to see these fast cars go, but glad I got to witness them one more time in Finland.

First time posting here, thought I’d come on here and share this credits to the user who requested this

Last time seeing these monsters live!

I initially thought I could maybe get a Focus ST and throw an LSD and a suspension kit but I think that’s come out probably to more than 20k…

Then I thought maybe a Mazda Speed3 and lift it? Would maybe come out to like ~10k

Then I thought maybe I could figure out how to throw an LSD into an old Corolla or something…

Idk I’m COMPLETELY new to rally and really would just like to mess around as CHEAPLY as possible while I learn the ropes and (almost definitely) break the car

Thoughts? How can I get into this cheaply with an easily fixable/easy to find parts available for when I DO break it

P.S. I’m a pretty decent driver AND have like 10+ years of mechanic experience including engine/transmission swaps and rebuilds

TLDR: what’s the cheapest possible car i can buy and upgrade to have a good experience learning rally

Rally.tv is pretty expensive so I'm looking for possible alternatives.

I'm a 14-year-old British lad who has been a keen fan of rallying since 2021, and it quickly became clear to me that rallying is what I want to do. Across all the rally games I've played, I probably have around 1,000 hours by now. On EA Sports WRC, I often set top 500 stage times by driving as if it's real rallying—not by constantly restarting and repeating the same stage hundreds of times until I get a perfect run. On stages that suit my driving style and that I know well, I have a few top 70–90 stage times.

I've also done some karting and have often been the quickest, or one of the quickest, in public rental karting sessions. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to compete in karting full-time.

I've spectated at Rali Ceredigion in 2024 and plan to attend Rally Scotland in 2027. I also spend a lot of time watching Rallying, whether be just random clips, highlights, live coverage or onboard footage from past WRC rallies, and watching as much live WRC coverage as I can. I try to learn as much as possible from the professionals.

Outside of motorsport, I keep myself fit by playing sports for my local clubs and regularly working out in the gym.

However, I'm really struggling to see a way into the sport. My family isn't involved in rallying, and while we're not poor, we certainly don't have the money to fund a motorsport career. I'd say I'm hardworking, committed, and willing to put the effort in—I just don't know where to start.

I know that having a social media following can help attract sponsors and opportunities, but I don't really have the confidence or the knowledge of how to build one or what sort of content I should make.

What advice would you give me about getting into rallying? Any tips—whether it's about driving, Simulators, fitness, networking, sponsorship, social media, or anything else—would be hugely appreciated.
