Regularity rallies, also known as Time-Speed-Distance (TSD) rallies, are challenging because they demand precision, teamwork, and situational awareness. Here’s why they are tough:
1. **Precise Time Management**
– Drivers must maintain a specific average speed over varying terrains and conditions, which is more complex than driving fast or slow.
– Even small deviations in speed can affect the accuracy of time checkpoints, leading to penalties.

2. **Navigational Complexity**
– Navigators must interpret and follow detailed route instructions or roadbooks accurately.
– Misreading directions or missing landmarks can throw off the entire timing.

3. **Changing Road Conditions**
– Routes may include a mix of paved roads, gravel, dirt tracks, or mountain passes.
– Weather conditions (rain, snow, fog) can add to the challenge of maintaining consistent speeds.

4. **Minimal Technological Assistance**
– Many rallies restrict or prohibit modern GPS devices or digital tools to ensure fairness and emphasize skill.
– Participants rely on odometers, stopwatches, and analog calculations, requiring focus and manual precision.

5. **Team Coordination**
– The driver and navigator must work in perfect harmony, communicating clearly and efficiently.
– Miscommunication can lead to errors in speed, navigation, or timing.

6. **Mental Fatigue**
– Maintaining focus over several hours or even days can be exhausting.
– Regularity rallies often involve long distances, with checkpoints requiring precise timing throughout.

7. **Competition Against Perfection**
– The goal is not to be the fastest but the most consistent and accurate, which requires a unique skill set.
– Rally organizers deliberately set challenging average speeds and checkpoints to test precision.

8. **Unexpected Variables**
– Unforeseen obstacles like traffic, road closures, or wildlife can disrupt plans.
– Drivers and navigators must adapt on the fly without losing composure or accuracy.

9. **Penalties for Deviations**
– Even small deviations from the target time or average speed result in penalties.
– Unlike traditional races, the winner is often decided by fractions of a second, making the stakes higher for every decision.

These factors make regularity rallies a true test of skill, endurance, and teamwork.
We use a rally design app that allows us to produce a Digital roadbook with a built-in rally computer, which you can run on your smartphone or tablet. You will be getting scores like the pros in no time. The navigator no longer needs to be a math wizard to keep you on time.
Modern technology does all the timing and scoring via GPS. Your progress is recorded by the provided Smartcontrol that sends data to the cloud for processing.
