I always thought it's be cool to have a fiero rally car, but I don't think it would withstand the punishment (lack of replacement body panels is a pain too), but apparently it can be done.

This is a Tim Bendle driven car in the rocky mountain rally (don't know what year). In related news, I have a chance to be a navigator for one of the local drivers.

This has been on my mind for a while now...it'd have to be a sole-purpose car, but the MR layout has won MANY rallies...

Nice pic!

Hey... The rear clip looks like it's the exact same as that yellow one that was on ebay from canada with the rear wheels pushed back a few inches. Could be the IMSA clip, but both of these have the step that runs at the bottom of the sail. Anyone else notice this?

road rallying sounds like a cool idea, but I hate to get my cars dirty. I avoid dirt roads no matter what, I just don't go there...

I always thought about this. You would think it would make a great rally car even with the stock motor.

Body-wise, a Fiero should be more than strong enough.

They rally MR2s, X1/9s, TR7's, etc ...

I'm curious where one could attach the longitudonal supports for the roll cage. Usually they go backwards from the main hoop to the back seat/trunk area, but you can't really do that with a fiero (unless they go through the window). Any ideas?
