Road Rallies

In a road rally, competitive driving takes place (in part or whole) on the open public highway. Road rallies were historically the basis of all rallies, and stage rallying evolved from them. However, these days they are strictly reserved for the amateur, due to the obvious danger that could arise to the public. The emphasis of road rallies is on navigational accuracy and teamwork. Indeed, the navigator is often seen as someone playing a minor role when in fact he or she is actually the key member of the crew.

There are other types of rally which are popular at club level:

  • Regularity rallies
  • Navigational exercises
  • 12-car rallies
  • Treasure hunts
  • Gimmick rallies
