Ennstal-Classic

From 16 to 19 July 2025, the Schladming - Dachstein - Gröbming region - in short, the Enns Valley - will once again belong to classic cars and their fans. For the 32nd edition of Austria's most renowned classic car rally, the organisers are revolutionising the event with a few new features Reduce to the Max: a well-known slogan that usually stands for more quality and less mass. A small cut was also necessary for the Ennstal-Classic in order to guarantee the proven high quality standards in route guidance and driving experience: the field of participants for the Ennstal-Classic 2023 will be limited to 200 vehicles. And that's it for the restrictions. In all other areas, there will be a major overhaul. For example, timekeeping - in cooperation with the company Kart-Data from Obertrum - will be GPS-supported for the first time this year. From 2023, the measurement in the section tests will be carried out using GPS measuring points. Absolutely reliable and accurate to a tenth. In mountain classifications, on the circuit and at the Porsche Design Grand Prix in Gröbming, the hundredths of a second will continue to be used for light barrier / transponder measurement. what does this mean for the participants? A much more colourful mix of different special stages, fewer empty kilometres and overall more scope for development when it comes to finishing positions. The co-operation with the design brand has even been extended: Porsche Design is not only launching a limited edition of the legendary Chronograph 1 for the Ennstal-Classic, there will again be a fine chronograph as the main prize for the winners of the epoch and overall winners.Porsche in general; the Stuttgart-based sports car brand is celebrating 75 years of Porsche this year and will be celebrating this anniversary in style at the Ennstal-Classic. The Stuttgart Heritage and Museum team will once again be bringing historic vehicles driven by brand ambassadors to the start, facts and figures will follow shortly, so the anticipation of an exciting rally summer with sporting finesse and high-calibre side events is not only justified, but also highly appropriate. See you in the Enns Valley this summer.
