did you hit anything or bounce off something during your rally ? I think you need rear wheel drive to "drift" , take care of the fuel smell first if there's a leak it's just not safe at any speed ,

do you know has the timing belt ever been done on the car , popping from the exhaust is un burnt fuel, a mis fire , check coil, plugs , wires , timing
