You would really have to mod the car if you want to use it for rally racing. I don't know a whole lot about rally racing but I know the suspension needs to be changed and parts of the car will need to be reinforced. I'd also suggest getting a roll cage to put in the car in the event of a rollover. This is all I remember from Rallisport Challenge on Xbox!

I found some Rally schools for you in the U.S.:

I believe Rally cars can only be 2.0L seriously
