SUMMARY:The Last Hurrah
DESCRIPTION:A tribute to the late Philip Young…\nIn the mid 1980’s\, English motor sport enthusiast Philip Young began organising events that kick started the Classic Rally movement. Over the next few decades rallies like the Classic Marathon and Monte Carlo Challenge gave hundreds of enthusiasts all over Europe and beyond the opportunity to drive\, and re-live\, the golden days of rallying. \nSadly\, Philip is no longer with us but some of those competitors\, along with a few of his original organising team\, have got together to organise a special event in his memory. \nBased at Annecy in the French Alps\, the three day event harks back to the essence of rallying as Philip originally intended. Dramatic Alpine passes\, remote mountain roads and pretty rural villages all strung together by accurate navigation and a testing timetable – the kind of driving your classic or vintage car was built for. \nAnd\, at the end of each day\, you return to the same hotel terrace overlooking Lac d’Annecy with new memories to share over dinner and a few drinks! This is Classic rallying in its purest form in memory of the man who started it all… \nRALLY FORMAT \n\nThree days rallying based at one luxury hotel\nApproximately 300km per day\nRegularity sections on legendary Alpine roads\nDriving Tests at iconic settings\nClassic map reading (and incidental Tulip Navigation)\nAccurate time keeping\nRelaxed evenings and informal prize givings\nFinal Celebration dinner in true rally tradition\n\nNo extreme schedules\, no unnecessary complications\, just enjoyable rallying… \nWHO CAN ENTER? \nDrivers who love driving for the sake of it\, and co-drivers who enjoy the art of navigating and teamwork. Enthusiasm matters more than experience! \nELIGIBLE CARS \nClassic Cars – built before 1986. \nHowever\, to encourage entrants to bring the oldest cars possible\, The Last Hurrah! plans to use a co-efficient results system based on the age of the car.  The aim is not to punish newer cars\, but to celebrate and reward the bravery of bringing truly historic machinery into the mountains. Exact details of how it will work will be published in the event Regulations. \nHIGHLIGHTS OF THE LAST HURRAH! \n\nThree full days classic rallying from one luxury hotel\nSpectacular Alpine roads around Lac d’Annecy\nCarefully crafted routes in the spirit of the original events\nRelaxed evenings with like-minded enthusiasts\nLimited entry for intimate atmosphere\nGastronomic dinners overlooking the lake\nTraditional Rally Prize Giving and Celebration Dinner in honour of Philip Young.\n\nThe Last Hurrah! celebrates the Golden Era of Classic Rallying and take participants back to the roots of the sport. A rally that feels like it could have taken place nearly a half a century ago and yet still feels timeless today. To preserve this intimate and exclusive atmosphere\, entries will be limited to just 50 cars.  The entry fee is 3\,650 euro (£3\,200) and includes: \nEvent Participation: Entry for one car and a two person crew \nEvent Documentation: Detailed Route Instructions and time cards \nHospitality: Four nights Hotel based on double/twin occupancy\, dinners\, lunches and refreshments during the event. \nSupport: Mechanical assist/sweep teams and experienced marshals. \nMemorabilia:  Souvenir Rally Plates and door stickers \nAwards: Prize Giving and Dinner \nFor further information please contact: timo@classicevents.nl
