The Classic Adelaide is an annual tarmac rally for classic cars manufactured prior to 1 January 1982. You can see cars representing many classic makes such as Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Jaguar, BMW, Lotus, Alfa Romeo, MG, Bugatti, Austin-Healey and Aston Martin, plus Australian and American favourites, who participate in competitive and non-competitive categories.
Though the newest cars allowed in the outright competition category can be no later than 1990 models, many such as the 1975 Porsche 911 RSR of 2007 winner Kevin Weeks are still be capable of up to 250 kmh on the closed special stages.
Enjoy pre-event activities such as car shows, a city street parade and a Prologue timed stage near the city to determine competitors' starting order.
From its daily start in front of the Hilton Adelaide in Victoria Square, the four-day rally visits the Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley, Southern Vales, Fleurieu Peninsula, Victor Harbor and McLaren Vale along a 1000 km route, which will include closed-road special stages totalling around 250 kms. The cars return to Adelaide each night.
