WHAT IS THE SPIRIT CATEGORY?
Come in a funny car, old car, junk car, unusual car, car modified to be a giant hot dog or anything that make people go WOW!
These cars made the cut in recent years:
FREE ENTRY IN SPIRIT CATEGORY
You pay no entry fee if your idea is accepted for Spirit Category. This is intended to keep the rally’s original founding spirit alive.
However there’s a process and some rules to this.
THE ENTRY PROCESS
- You must have a valid paid TOURING CATEGORY entry. If for some reason your SPIRIT application is rejected you will not miss the rally. (Follow the instructions on our ENTER page)
- Send us an email with a detailed description of your car, concept or vision.
- We will review all applications by April 2026 and will inform you whether you made it Spirit Category.
- If your application is accepted your TOURING CATEGORY entry fees will be credit to your administrative fees account (Visa, Insurance, Permits, etc).
- If you application is rejected you can keep your touring entry or sell it.
There is a 300 Euro Spirit deposit that will be refunded to you once you attend the opening press conference and the opening ceremony in the same vehicle as you described in your application.
