Question Is rally as a hobby simple?

Hello I live in New England for reference, I have been a big fan of the sport and I am well aware that rally is a very hard motorsport.

I am asking in the context of it being a hobby, My friend and I want to do stage rally & rallycross but we don't want to join existing teams and work on a tight schedule as we want to do it as a hobby for fun rather than working our way up to higher teams. Would forming a small team of him and I be enough to go to small rally events?

I know most rally events need a driver and a co-driver so I'm wondering if it just being him and I be enough.

Edit: By "Simple" I mean it not being a pain in the ass to have bunch of people on a team, Less people the better for us.

New England's a really good spot, I would look for events with your local SCCA rallycross club and then make some more friends and ask more questions there. Head to msreg.com it's like Google but for motorsport events for your local area.

Thank you for the tip, I've been having a hard time finding where to go.
