What Can I Expect

This is the full-day forest rallying experience - where the loose gravel, the Scottish scenery and the off-camber sweeping corners will have you utterly captivated!

After 40 years in the Welsh hills, this pro rally school moved to McRae country. The dense forests miles from anywhere in Dumfries & Galloway make for the ideal location for some proper rallying in authentic superhero rally cars.

These full-day courses run with Ford Escort MkII RS2000s and Subaru Impreza WRX STis. Different generations of rally stalwarts, but both big winners in their time. Increasingly rare, it’s a real find to have these cars available for the general public to enjoy!

And what a stage it is! Perfect for showcasing British rallying and engaging newcomers to the sport, this is a WRC-style setting that’ll have you grappling for grip with every lap.

We are offering Gold and Platinum vouchers for these full-day courses. Going Gold means you will share the session with up to one other person, whereas the Platinum ensures one-to-one tuition on an exclusive booking.

The instructors are all brilliant. They are super enthusiastic about rallying and compete in current motorsport series, so they have that competitive spirit and passion. And it’s all about in-car tuition here, so you will learn such a lot over the course of the day.

With oodles of drive time, these full-day rally courses are easily the most intensive rally experiences we've got. Book your authentic forest rally day in Scotland now!
