What can I put back into the sport?

It is often a complaint of rally organisers that competitors have no idea how much effort it takes to put on a rally, and the complaint is justified. So don’t forget to join your local motor club, and if you are not competing on a given weekend, offer your services as a marshal or organiser. You will learn much more about the sport, which will stand you in good stead when competing, and you will be able to answer the marshal, standing in the rain, who says as you draw up in your rally car all nice and warm “you don’t appreciate what we do for you” !
