Last time my car was off-road (on the JIC FLT-A2s) my driver's door lock rattled loose and fell inside the door. And that was after just a 15 minutes drive at 10 mph down a rutted dirt road. Rally is just way too harsh on equipment, and doubly so when you've got a tarmac setup on the car.

I wouldn't rally-cross unless I had a total beater or a car prepped for it. It's probably the harshest motorsport on equipment next to top-fuel drag racing. Plus, roll-overs happen at least once per season, compared to autocross where rollovers happen once per decade.
