The rally took in some picturesque scenery around the city of Rosenheim and onto to Kufstein in adjacent Austria, before winding its way back to the start in Bad Aibling. Its most prominent participants included former Le Mans racer His majesty Prince Leopold von Bayern, and female DRM icon Lili Reisenbichler.
A number of spectators were also able to enjoy some sporty drives; on a closed parking area near the castle, winners of a draw were invited to join in as co-drivers of an Audi S1, Jim Clark’s Lotus Mk40 or a Lancia Delta Integrale.
Even the most successful racing team of Bavaria, Schnitzer-BMW, did not miss the event, with team manager Charlei Lamm presenting a modern BMW 6GTR next to its classic precursor, the 635CSi.
