rallying over the past 4 years. While traditional motorsport

media has declined sharply, iRally has created a huge

worldwide audience of some 700,000 rally fans. Its also

used with respect by top drivers and team managers,

and those who promote and govern the sport.

Editor Greg Strange talks about what they got right,

why it has succeeded, and just as important, what they

got wrong and what they wish theyd known.
