Ralf Fischer was taken to the Eifel Rally by a friend as a spectator. "I was immediately enthusiastic about the "old" rally cars. Since I had driven a Lancia Delta Integrale HF 8V in the slalom, I decided to drive an "original" rally car there as well. No sooner said than done, and now he is a permanent guest in Daun.



Gerd Dicks was the engine man at Toyota, both in the World Rally Championship, LeMans and Formula 1. With his original Group B Toyota Celica Turbo from 1986, which was driven by Lars-Eric Torph at Olympus Rallye back then, he is a regular guest in the Eifel. "Already in 2010, when we drove in the supporting programme of the DRM, many fans came to Daun especially because of us.



For Harald Demuth, the two-time German rally champion, taking part in the Eifel Rally Festival is a must. "I wouldn't want to miss a single year. It's great to see the enthusiasm of the people every year who take extra holidays to see us and our old 'rally treasures'." Roger Lötzner made his Ur-Quattro available to him at the start, which is also how the first joint event with Wolfgang Inhester took place.



Patrick Berghaus has been competing continuously since 2000, always with one of the two family-owned Metros. Until 2018 always with father Peter, after his illness with Karin John.
Even before the festival, when we drove at the DRM rally in Daun as part of the Slowly Sideways programme, many fans came especially for us. But with the festival, it suddenly became huge, really gigantic.



The name Dörrenbächer has stood for high-quality rally photos since 1992. That was not always the case. No, don't misunderstand. Today, it is Sascha who 'shoots' brilliant photos, but already from 1987 until 1999, his father Fredy shot rally videos with the focus on events in Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate. Older ones may remember the Eichert Racing Film Team and later N&D Video. Some videos can still be found on youtube (rallyecar1). And at the end of the year there was always a review of the season set to music.



The presale of the programmes and tickets will start as planned on 01.04.2023. In order to optimise the dispatch and to expand the offer, the sale of the programme booklet and tickets will be organised via the RallyWebShop this year.

The task facing the organisers of the eleventh edition of the ADAC Eifel Rally Festival is to keep all the good qualities of previous events but still find room for new innovations. On the weekend of July 27th to 29th, the picturesque town of Daun in the heart of the Volcanic Eifel will once again be a rendezvous for the worldwide fans of rallying and its history. More than one hundred and fifty original rally cars or true-to-the-original replicas will present the history of this fascinating sport in the hills and valleys around Daun.



Friends of rallying worldwide – and of historic rally cars in particular – should highlight the date of July 27th/29th, 2023 in their diaries. Between those dates, the Volcanic Eifel region around Daun will once again be transformed into a mobile rally museum. More than one hundred and fifty rally cars, either originals or faithfully built contemporary replicas, will be exhibited on the Rally Mile in Daun.
