Re: Was thinking of getting this

you don't need it for rallycross... as it is never at night. And do you plan on doing stage rallies? If so, you will need a LOT more than a light bar....

Form > Function

You know as well as I do that rally lights on the front of a street driven car have neither form nor function.

Haha, truth.

Though I must admit, after driving around in the rain tonight, my headlights don't illuminate a damn thing in the wet. I found myself multiple times crossing lines because I couldn't see them, and it's not like my lights aren't bright, they're more than adequate in the dry.

Didn't know that...

So with that being said, you might as well join the Subaru crowd as most of them are a bunch of wanna-be rally drivers that think they are good drivers, and quite a few of them have these light bars on cars that maybe rally a few times a year but leave them on year round to look cool.

I would say unless you are going to be doing night rallies where they would be functional then hell no.
