Unfortunately there aren't to many people who track their Ralliarts but if you are looking into getting started this is a great way to do it! You will be surrounded by many track enthusiast who can show you the way. Even though this is a competition series, you will see opponents coming together to help one another get on the track and be competitive.

For those of you thinking "Wait up, how is a ralliart suppose to keep up with an Evo or STI?"
The great news is all Ralliarts and WRX's will start off with negative -1.50 points. This means we have 1.50 worth of modification to do over the Evo and STI guys!
This gives us a fighting chance!

So.... Anyone interested? I can tell you that the Ralliart can hold its own when properly setup. I was just at Willow Spings this last Saturday and I had a blast! The little Ralliart was able to clock a 1:37, beating out quite a few Evo's and STI's..

No listing for Evo X turbo swap on an RA? Seems to me like that mod should be worth some points.

That is awesome, I can compete in Street (1.75 by my calcs) and have quite a few point left for upgrades!!
EDIT: Damn it Anthony, you just made me spend MORE money I don't have yet

List still needs to be updated but the X turbo will definetly add something. Im thinking 0.50 but we'll see.

Hey Anthony,
Do you have a link to the specific info for this series (I couldn't find it on their site). I'm wondering how the events will work.
Is this head to head racing, or TA style with best lap of 3 runs?
If head to head is there open passing (where I have to worry about some jerk running me off the road while trying to cut in on a corner) or is it passing zones like HPDE?
Etc, etc?

Their website is not updated for the new competition series and rules. Right now the only info is on here, socalevo, and few other ralliart, subie sites.

The way it works is FTD out of 5 session wins. Every session counts. Ideally you would want to be in the "advanced", "super advanced" group. You still have to follow passing rules and share the track with non-competition drivers. Just need to learn how to read traffic and space yourself for a hot flying lap. Its all part of the game. If you want to do 6 straight flying laps, I can guarantee you will hit traffic every single lap. Time it right and leave enough space and you will be rewarded with 2 hot laps. You can always go into pits if you are about to come up on a group of 5+ cars or w/e.

^^^Thats it right there! Its all about turning in the fastest lap so track awareness is key!

^That Pure Evo IX is a track champion with many trophies.


You can learn much by tailgating him if you can. lol.

Wish I had track sponsor.

My wallet cant handle track cost.
Not necessarily the entry fee more of In-Case-****-break money.
