Dolomiti Ira Classic 2018 – Sixth Edition
SATURDAY, September 22, 2018, will see the sixth edition of the “Dolomiti Ira Classic”; skill tests for historic cars registered up to 1997 and registered on the ASI (Italian Historic Automobile Club) calendar as a National Championship event.
Having reached the sixth edition, we would like to repeat the success of previous years by enriching the number of tests and adding a few crews from other countries such as Germany, Austria and the Netherlands to give an international character to this fun race.
But not only that, this year some tests will also take place in Villa di Egna on a city course, closed to traffic. On Sunday, September 23, on the road leading from Santa Cristina Val Gardena to Monte Pana, two kilometers of road will also be closed to traffic for the occasion, with Giuseppe Fornasari, a designer and builder of 600+ horsepower dream cars, as the lead car.
50 special tests with all the flavor of a real historic car regularity race, from the road-book to the large numbers on the car doors, to the official ASI timekeepers, to the race officials of the Karl Kleewein South Tyrol Association, a new panoramic route much appreciated from Terlano through Cornaiano, for a stamp control in the main square of the village to reach, as already mentioned, Egna (one of the most beautiful villages in Italy), which will welcome the historic cars right under its arcades.
As usual, the Municipality of Renon will grant us exclusive use of the Ritten Arena after traveling more than 100 km. It should be noted that at the start in Bolzano in Piazza Walther, the cars will be presented one by one before leaving at 11:00 am for Terlano. In short, the first “low-cost” race registered on the ASI calendar to promote this type of event in the area and to bring young people closer; it will be a great success.
Young students from the “Galileo Galilei School Complex”, formerly ITI, thanks to the help of Principal Rino Arcieri and Professor Angelo Monachella, were able to draft and lay out the Road-Book and participate in the event for free through an interesting school training course.
Therefore, this sixth edition of the “Dolomiti Ira Classic” will be an unmissable event, organized by the Veteran Car Team in collaboration with the Municipality of Bolzano, Santa Cristina, Selva Gardena, and the Tourism Board of Bolzano, Santa Cristina and Selva Gardena on the occasion of the “National Historic Vehicle Day” which will be held on Sunday, September 23 throughout the national territory.
