Step 3. Get your application endorsed

You will need to have your rally car registration application endorsed by an office bearer at an approved motor sports club.

This endorsement is valid for six weeks.

Step 4. Get an inspection

You must get a roadworthy inspection report, also known as a green slip, from a dedicated rally car inspector.

The inspector will also need to endorse your rally car registration application.

To find an approved rally car inspector, go to the Motorsport Australia website.

Step 5. Send your application to Motorsport Australia

You must get an authority to operate from Motorsport Australia.

To do this, email the following to sa@motorsport.org.au:

• your completed rally car application
• your passed roadworthy inspection report
• a completed Motorsport Australia logbook application - if you're a new applicant.

You can find a logbook application on the Motorsport Australia website.

Step 6. Compliance checks for first time applicants

If you have a vehicle that haven't had NT registration, you should get a compliance check.

Find your nearest government inspection facility.

First time applicants also need to submit all of the following to the MVR:

• proof of ownership
• an application to register your vehicle for the first time.
• an application for exemption of stamp duty on a motor vehicle PDF (195.5 KB).

Step 7. Submit and pay the fee

Submit all of your forms and supporting documents to the MVR. You will also need to pay a 12 month registration fee.

Once you have met all of the requirements and paid the registration fee, the MVR will issue you with:

• a set of dedicated rally car number plates
• a vehicle logbook
• a registration certificate.
