What this mod does
Rally Italia 1986 turns BeamNG.drive into a 1980s rally. On a new version of the game’s Italy map, the author has laid out 28 stages with pacenotes, totaling more than 240 km (150 miles). The longest is 41 km, and the author presents it as the longest stage ever seen in a rally sim.
What’s included
- 28 unique stages with pacenotes.
- A four-stage rally loop using the game’s experimental rally feature, plus those same stages to play individually.
- More than 25 new configurations of in-game cars (Covet, Bolide, Miramar or Le Gran, among others): Group B, Group 4 and Group 2, with homologation and race versions.
- Custom service parks, rally lights on some cars and vintage rally tires in several sizes.
Who it’s for
If you like classic rally and want more than an empty map, this pack gives you ready-made stages, period-appropriate cars and pacenotes to drive blind like in a real rally.
Version 2.5
The September 25, 2026 update redoes all the pacenotes to fit the game’s new system and fixes texture issues on the cars. After 0.39 arrived, some users had reported texture bugs on the vegetation and on certain vehicles; it’s worth reading the latest comments before you play.

Common problems
Do I need to install other mods?
The page doesn't list any dependencies. The new configurations use the game's own cars, such as the Covet, Bolide, Miramar or Le Gran.
I see weird textures on the vegetation or some cars, what should I do?
Some users reported this after 0.39. Version 2.5 fixes vehicle textures; make sure you have it and that you've deleted previous versions.
Are the pacenotes perfect?
The author admits they aren't entirely, although in 2.5 he redid them all with the game's new system.
