Sign up for this London rally school and experience the thrill of rallying like you're in the Monte Carlo rallies! This ultimate rally double features the classic Mk II Ford Escort RS2000 and the Subaru Impreza WRX STI, both known for their gravel-kicking prowess yet offering unique driving experiences. While London is the capital, Oxfordshire is the heart of UK motorsport, home to many racing and rally teams. When you rally near Bicester, it’s like a motorsport pilgrimage celebrating horsepower! These aren't just any cars; they're proper rally-spec models. The Escort is prepared to Group 4 standards, and the Subaru meets Group N requirements, featuring race harnesses, roll cages, fire extinguishers, and bucket seats. The Subaru's flat-four 'boxer' engine and all-wheel-drive technology revolutionised rallying, while the Mk II Escort remains a classic favourite. All cars used in the rally doubles have unrestricted revs and gears, ensuring you get the full rally experience. Get ready for double the excitement! The Monte Carlo sessions let you drive both cars on a gravel track in Bicester with a timed lap showdown to crown the best driver.
