Ok, so after thinking about it for a while, I've come up with the idea of having like a World Rally Championship here across all of Hyrule.
First, to make things clear, I'm not going to have a participating driver, but I will head the announcements and what not.
Second, each nation can have up to two drivers and two co-drivers. Heck, you can have drivers and co-drivers from different countries, as long as it's reasonable.
Third, the number of countries haven't been decided yet, but I'll include those on the world map, that are reasonable of course.
And finally, two weeks to sign up. For drivers, co-drivers, and countries that wish to have a rally. More regulations will come ASAP.

What is World Rally? I have never heard of it, but it sounds like a good idea.

Ok, for those who are clueless, this is based off of the real life World Rally Championship. It's a motor event that spans around the world, pitting drivers against the toughest terrains from snow and ice to dirt, mud, sand, and asphalt. Perhaps the person best known with it is the late Colin McRae (may he rest in peace). Here's a video to help out: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOv7ycbTxi8

I will have a team. If you need a team name it will be "Metz Racing"
Drivers: Gavin Metz (American) and Juan Pablo Miguel (Spanish)
Co-Drivers: Geraldino Matarazzi (Italian) and Roberto Carlos (Spanish)
(I put the nationalities down in case it matters)

Continuing on with the rules, the objective of the rally is to finish the stage in the shortest amount of time, and ultimately, win the nation's rally with the shortest amount of time. The winner of the rally will receive 10 points, 2nd place gets 6 points, 3rd gets 4 points, 4th gets 3 points, 5th place receives 2 points, and 6th place with one point.
The ultimate goal is at the end of the last rally for the driver to have the most points. And the driver woth the most points wins the championship. Seems simple, doesn't it.
Tonight, I'll add a comprehensive list of drivers, co-drivers, and rallies.

Ok, here's the as of now, list of drivers, co-drivers, and rallies. And for the record, no need for teams. Rather, the drivers and co-drivers will be chosen at random.
Drivers
Gavin Metz (American) Juan Pablo Miguel (Spanish)
Co-Drivers
Geraldino Matarazzi (Italy) Roberto Carlos (Spain)
Rallies
Telefonica Rallye de Espana Rally Canton Rouge
Just a note for the rallies. If you choose that you want your nation to host a rally, give it a formal name. Like how mine is Rally Canton Rouge. But please don't make it all Rally 'Your Nation'. Please.

I'll get a driver list up soon. I think this is a good idea and hope to get involved more than in past sporting events.

Nice Metz. Looks like the rally car the French auto maker Alpine used back in the 70's.

Rome will be happy to host the 'Rally d'Italia Sardegna', which is held on the Italian island of Sardegna. Driver: Lucius Tiberius (SPQR) Co-Driver: Willem van Otterloo (Canton Rouge) Am I missing anything?

Looks good Porcu. You know you can assign another driver and co-driver.
And I'm liking the old school rally cars.
Another comprehensive list will be made tonight.
