From brand-new rallies like the Hamburg-Berlin Klassik, via popular courses
like the Saxony Classic and the Silvretta Classic, to the legendary Mille
Miglia route – classic car rallies are gaining more and more fans. No matter
which rally you participate in, they all have one thing in common: the thrill
of a sporting challenge on fascinating routes. And everyone involved enjoys
taking advantage of personal experience and superior technology to
achieve the best possible results for the team and vehicle. That goes for
both road rallies and complex time trials.
the "Cl aSSiC Car rally" adventure
in road rallies, the team faces two primary tasks: orientation (for example with
the help of pacenotes and the information in the road book) and time trials.
in vintage car rallies these are often regularity trials which require a given
stage of the route to be driven in a specified length of time. in this case,
a precise stopwatch is indispensable. in the so-called “hourglass category”
only mechanical watches and chronographs are allowed – in homage to the
era in which the vehicles themselves were built. the 917 rally Chronograph
was specially developed to meet the exacting requirements of classic rallies.
