Introduction
Historic Rally Car Technical Information
Historic Cars may be used for competitions under a set of rules that preserve the specification of their period and prevent modifications of performance and behaviour which could arise through the application of modern technology. Historic competition is not simply another formula in which to acquire trophies, it is a discipline apart,, in which one of the essential ingredients is a devotion to the cars and to their history. Historic Motor Sport enables the active celebration of the History of the Motor Car”.
The following sections are designed to give anyone, building a Historic rally car for use on events governed by the MSA, guidelines on what can and cannot be done.
I would stress that as is stated in the Blue Book only modifications used in rallying on the particular make and model of car are permitted for both Historic (Cetegory 1) and Post Historic (Category 2) rally cars. Modifications are only allowed if they were available before 1.1.68 (Cat 1) in the case of Historic Rally Cars and before 1.1.75 (Cat 2) in the case of Post Historic Rally Cars.
Category 3 is open to Rally cars registered and homologated in Groups 1, 2, 3, or 4 between 1.1.75 and 31.12.81 and can only run to the relevant make and model Homologated specification.
The items listed on this website are as a result of proven modifications, supported by documented evidence. On that basis if anyone has evidence to support a modification that is not listed then please let me know.
Rules are rules and broken by fools so otherwise Prove it or Remove it.
