Minneapolis, Minn. -- Rally America, Inc. officials have announced a new partnership with Rally World Magazine, making the Atlanta, Ga.-based, rally news source the official publication for the largest rally series in the United States.

The new agreement was officially announced in January at the Autosport Show in Birmingham, England, Europe's largest show dedicated exclusively to racing.

Officials from both Rally America and Rally World Magazine said that joining efforts will aid the continued growth of rally in the United States.

"This partnership enables our rally series to find its voice," said Rally America Managing Director J.B. Niday. "And by working with Rally World Magazine and its building success outside of the U.S., we will have a real opportunity to keep the Rally America Championship at the forefront of the sport not only here, but all over the world."

Fans of Rally World Magazine, which is distributed throughout Europe, Canada and the U.S., will notice several changes to the magazine, highlighted by the Rally America section that will contain exclusive interviews and unrivaled, in-depth coverage of the U.S. rally scene, special columns from Niday and other rally experts, up-to-date schedules and special, co-branded promotions, events and giveaways.

Changes will take effect beginning with the March/April issue.
