I know most us of have seen the 4.1 used in rally stages, but they're normally fairly stock, but I've just come across this one driven by a chap called Santos Godinho back when the 4.1 first came out.
Rav4s have been used in many rallies around the world. From the simple TSD rallies to the unforgivable Paris to Dakar Rally. (This has been changed to South America) For you new comers, TSD means Time, Speed, Distance rallies. These are the once I prefer, with its occasional speed stages. RAV4 are light, fast and very durable in a small package. Once you drop in a V6 or a V8. It over powers the field with its speed and authority in the mud.
