Product description
Being able to look at historic rally cars not just in a museum, but in action – that is what everyone wants whose heart beats for the sport. Mix together the beautiful rally stages of the Volcanic Eifel in a weekend with crowds of like-minded people, rally champions of the past and present and, last but not least, exciting rally cars of all eras actually driving on those stages – the result is the Eifel Rallye Festival in Daun.
The official book is not just a chronicle of the Festival with many photographs of the stars of the past and present rally scene and of the most beautiful original cars and replicas from rally history, it is a Who’s Who and What’s What of the sport, so to speak. Gathered here are, among others, Walter Röhrl, Stig Blomqvist, Jimmy McRae, Thierry Neuville and Sandro Munari once again working their magic on the special stages with actual rally cars.
With this book, you can find the highlights from ten years of historic rallying including cars that are otherwise never normally seen, such as the Group S Audi, the rebuilt Safari Stratos or exotics like the Jidé or the Clan Crusader. The Eifel Rallye Festivals detailed in this book offer a unique cross-section of rally history ranging from classics like the Mini and Volvo PV544 to Group 4 legends like the Stratos and Ascona 400. Then there are the unforgettable Group B monsters, the Lancia and Subaru stars from Group A as well as the spectacular World Rally Cars from this century. Plus there are stories of drivers and their cars from all those Festivals.
