If Nitro Rallycross seems familiar that’s because it was an event as part of the Nitro World Series starting in 2018, but now is its own thing! This sort of Rallycross stands apart from anything we’ve seen so far and stays true to its roots in America, as it is fast, loud, casual, and made for just about anybody! Low cost of entry, races all over the States, and ties to other sports including halftime stunts, junker races, and even public entry events make it a people’s sport. Granted, this being the very early stages (so to speak), it seems to have a lot more presence from some carmakers like the dominating Subaru WRX’s. And yet we also see such variety as a Honda Civic, an Audi A1 Sportback, and a whole division just for cars we wouldn’t be able to recognize anyways! Custom builds in a series with no designated manufacturers called “NEXT.”
