Well, when you have 40 cars chomping at the bit on the restart in close quarters, all it takes is a small nudge and somebody going sideways to make a huge mess.
To answer the original question, I would say yes, but only to Group N. It's the "closest" you can get to production based racing in rally but not the only production-based class. In America, for instance, there's still Speed World Challenge classes where they take mostly stock cars with rollcages and brake/tire upgrades and race them.
I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.
