We will try and answer some frequently asked questions below. If you don't find the answers you need, please feel free to email or ring us.
Do I need a competitions license, helmet or other safety devices?
No, you do not need a competition license. This event falls outside of the scope of Motorsport UK competition rules. However you must wear a helmet and we recommend wearing overalls, although it is not compulsory.
As a spectator, where can I see the cars?
There are large spectator areas at all Lombard Rally Festivals, some venues offering multiple viewing spots. You are able to get close up, look at the cars and talk to the drivers between their runs. It is also easy to see the Classic and Sports cars and chat to their owners.
What does taking part cost?
This varies from venue to venue, but most cost £375.00 for the two days, or £225.00 for one. The events also have a Saturday evening social event, usually with food included for the driver, where great stories are told of the history of rallying, if winning or losing, or dragging cars to the finish of a rally which really shouldn't have got there!

I don't have a rally car - how can I take part?
Not a problem at all. We have Ford Escort Mk2 rally cars available to hire, plus we others including Subarus and Ford Fiestas. If you have a car, but worry about looking after it on an event, we can arrange a service crew for you.
Finally, many of the events have a scenic tour added which you can take part in with your normal road car.
