2026 Scottish Rally Championship

The Motorsport UK Scottish Rally Championship is a rallying series run throughout Scotland over the course of a year that comprises both gravel and tarmac surface rallies.^[1] The 2026 series will commence on the forest tracks around Inverness on 14 February with the season finale due to take place in the Forests around Castle Douglas on 12 September.

The title sponsor for 2026 is Asset Alliance Group for the third year as part of a three-year deal.

Following the Grampian Forest Rally in August, driver Garry Pearson was declared champion, having won 5 of the 6 events thus far. Chris Lees was declared Co-driver champion.

2026 calendar

For season 2026 there will be seven events held on both gravel and tarmac surfaces.^[2]

On 30 August 2026 the organisers announced the cancellation of the series closing event, the Galloway Hills Rally which was originally scheduled for 12 September 2026. The reason given was the failure to secure enough entries. ^[3]

Drivers Points Classification

Points are awarded to the highest placed registered driver on each event as follows: 30, 28, 27, 26, and so on down to 1 point for every entered competitor. Every finisher will receive at least 1 point. At the end of the Championship, competitors will count their best 5 scores out of the 7 events as their final overall Championship score.

Drivers may nominate one event as their 'joker', on which if they finish in the top five they will score additional points: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
