Rallying used to be pretty cheap. Till the mid 90s, you could get a removable roll bar structure and 2 bucket seats into your daily Starlet, Cinquecento, 205, 106, AX, 5, Escort or Sierra and go rallying even at WRC level. The problem is that now even the Rally 4 cars are like 80k new. And very few people use Rally 5s which are still something around 25k-30k new. FIA's new leadership needs to find a way to bring down costs significantly.
