Yet another newby looking to start
12/14/5 at 19:41:13

Ok, I am yet another newby drawn in by the action and excitement of rallying in Canada but unsure where to start.

Specifically, I would like to know from which governing body or association in Ontario (CARS, RSO or other) can I obtain the rules regarding cars (classes, specs etc.) to determine which vehicle to start (simple) with in rally racing...? In other words, where do I get the rules to determine which cars with what mods (if any) fit into which classes...?

This is likely a simple question to answer for those "in the loop", but I am confused. Advice and guidance is welcome.

You may want to wait until the 2006 rules are available. You could borrow a 2005 rulebook to look at classes. Just add Group 5 for 2006. Yay!!!

And if you are really impatient it would be best to buy a well prepared and log booked car that is ready to go..... Like my swift gt not too crazy but very capable to win its class check it out in the for sale section Cheers

There are diagrams, part B and Part C, and a Bulletin. I don't want to miss a detail, can CARS provide the whole document..?

Rulebooks cost $15, and they are included if you get a competition licence.
