Tommy_G Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Well ive wanted to get into some kind of motorsport for ages now, and decided on rallying.does anyone know about amateaur rally? cars, mods, where?Cheers Tom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MaccyD Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 how much money do you have? you can buy an M-sport focus for about £250k if you like? the thing with motorsport is it requires alot of money to fund it, your probably better off doing go karting or something as that would only take up 10-20k a year. Rally cross is a possibility but again, lots of money required. What i was thinking of doing is like super hatch or something like that in a 106xsi, that could possibly cost you less than 10k a year to do which is pretty reasonable.
