The Endurance Rally Association (ERA) will add a new event to its 2017 calendar, as the Baltic Classic will provide a two-week rallying adventure beginning in Copenhagen on Sunday May 28, 2017. The route will take participants through Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland before finishing in Berlin on Saturday June 10.
Open to both Vintage and Classic cars, the event loops around and across the beautiful Baltic Sea with plenty of gravel driving and exciting forest sections on roads made famous by events such as the Rally of the Thousand Lakes and Rally Estonia.
“The Baltic Classic is aimed at both newcomers to long distance historic rallying as well as experienced ERA competitors,” explained ERA Rally Director Fred Gallagher. “The route has been chosen to combine the finest scenery this spectacular region has to offer while visiting areas steeped in rally history. The competition element of the event will be familiar to those with experience of past ERA events, comprising regularity sections on wide, flowing gravel roads as well as special tests on private land, and will be held entirely on non-damaging roads.”
Entries are now being accepted for vintage, vintageant and classic cars pre-1976 for what should be a fantastic two weeks of rallying. For more details on the Baltic Classic as well as other ERA events, please visit www.endurorally.com.
