celicas are definitely fun on dirt especially with a stiffer rear sway bar tongue.gif, but obviously not as good as AWD cars. GT-4's are good although they had lots of problems with the super strut in WRC.

So much so they didnt use superstrut with the WRC cars smile.gif

6th Gen Celicas do not make brilliant rally cars...the 5th Gen made a better Rally car...with the 6th Gen, the overhangs are too big and the forward vision was restricted by the huge bonnet bulge...if you read up any reports from TTE Rally drivers when they moved to the ST205 they didnt like them too much. Corollas and 185s were considered better.

If you want to go into amature rallies you want a small car (shortish wheel base) with small overhangs.
