RallyStage or Performance RallyPerformance or Stage Rally. Teams take to closed roads with a route book description of what lays ahead for them. The goal is simple, drive the road as quickly as you can while still finishing. Performance rally cars vary in the level of modification, but the production class cars are pretty much what comes off the showroom floor. Extensive safety modifications are required for performance rally, including a roll cage and 5-point safety harness and highly accurate odometer. Marshaling at Performance Rally is one of the best ways to get involved and learn about the sport. From stage start and finish controls, to timing and 'observing', events are always looking for some helping hands. TSD or Navigational RallyRallying is an autosport that puts a driver and co-driver in competition against the road, and the clock. Separated on the road by a minute, competitors rarely cross paths in competitive sections, but are each scored on their ability to successfully complete the route and its challenges. TSD rally, where the goal is to drive the prescribed route along open roads, at a predetermined average speed. At hidden checkpoints, your arrival times are recorded. Penalties are assessed for each second early or late. TSD (Time Speed Distance) is a real challenge for the navigator who must calculate the times and distances and for the driver who must drive at precise speeds. both must pay attention to their surroundings. Often the roads provide excellent driving challenges as well. A TSD rally can be entered using a normal road car, with no modifications. In the past, amateur level TSDs have been run as over night events adding the element of darkness into the mix.
