Beyond the adrenaline-fuelled competition, the rally represents a significant opportunity for the three shires. The event not only brings tourism and economic benefits but also aims to engage with local communities and encourage their participation.

There are various avenues for individuals to get involved, from marshalling to holding garden parties for friends and local residents, as has been done at previous rallies. Our ‘Drive Smart’ campaign will immerse two residents from the region into the challenges of becoming a rally driver and the standards required to be an advanced driver on the road. This initiative showcases real local people getting involved, having fun, and learning the skills required to be smart, safe drivers, mirroring the standards set by professional drivers in top-level competition.
