The world of rally is created in papercraft

In following the theme of the circuit racing, this edition of the Motor Sports World offers the world of rallying, where people and machines challenge a vast wilderness under the harshest conditions.
Drivers on their machine conquer the wild terrain with no leveled roads. Off-road racing (rallying) fascinates people who are drawn to the smell of earth, probably because it is truly inspiring to see the way these drivers overcome obstacles with the accumulation of instant judgments made as the situation demands, with imagination and courage as their weapons, bringing home to us the vitality of life itself.

The allure of rallying derives from the way it proves the vitality of human life based on imagination and courage in the face of a challenging adventure. It also lies in tough machines themselves.

Motor Sports World: Rallying embodies the timeless allure of rallying beyond the differences of place and time, using the two machines as its motifs.

The XTZ850R is a production rally bike which Yamaha Motor used in the 1995 Paris-Dakar Rally, well known as an adventure rally. Racing through a desert, the XTZ850R has left a strong impression on the fans as a legend with its distinctive look.

Today, it is the four-stroke motocross bike YZ450F that has become Yamaha Motor’s flagship model for off-road racing.

The XTZ850R and the YZ450F racing through dunes and the wilderness represent the past and the present. Please enjoy making your own papercraft model of the two machines that have conquered any and all conditions, with a passion for adventure in your heart.
