One spectator at the event, Tommy Tait, wrote on Facebook: "We must be like cats have nine lives never have we been so close to getting wiped out by a rally car our thoughts go out to the 4 who got hit."
The rally course in the countryside is described on the event's website as having "a reputation for being fast with big jumps, ditches and hedges to catch out the unwary".
The event is named after Scottish Formula One driver Jim Clark, who grew up nearby.
