Reconnaissance Car.
"Reconnaissance" meaning an inspection or exploration of an area, especially one made to gather military information.
So car thats used to gather info on whats ahead

Ah right, so a car that the drivers would use to explore the stage before going at it full pelt in their works cars!

As above, it's basically the car used by the Rally Driver and Co Driver, to go over the course at normal speed to make notes on breaking points, unusual features in the road etc etc
