Can anyone explain me why all these cars have license plates? I live in Belgium and I tought roll cages and harnesses and so on were forbidden here in street legal cars... :)
rally cars have to be street legal, but not for daily purpose but only for racing, i don’t remember how this license is called, because a lot of amateur and also pro stages are made in a single country where the car have to be free to move over
But I’m pretty sure these cars aren’t allowed on the streets in Belgium. You only see them on trailers. So I think they’re only able to get it if they wan’t to drive a street rally?
How it works is you get insurance through the organisers of the rally, your car has to be legal so it can drive on public roads from the finnish to the start of different stages and into service. All rallycars have to be fully road legal but they get around things like ABS and airbags being removed and things like that which wouldn’t normally be legal. the photo i attached is a overview of a rally, the boxes that say ”SS” then a number means special stage and the coloured line beside that is the stage, so from the end of that stage they have to drive on public roads to the next stage.
I hope this was clear enough for you.
Most rally drivers use the roads to get to the next stage
