As usual, the mountain regularity test from Missen to Wiederhofen, 2.1 km away and 176 m higher, was fully booked in no time at all. The lion's share of the participants came from the Allgäu classic car scene, which was very well positioned in terms of both quantity and quality, at its first home event before the Oberjoch Mountain Prize 30 km away in October. Otherwise, the starters came from all over Germany, Austria, Switzerland and South Tyrol.
The history of the event. Until 1982, there were a total of seven hill climb races, with German and international awards. In the end, even with Johann Abt, who was not entirely unknown in German motorsport, as race director. After a forced break of 31 years, the "Allgäuer Motorsport-Freunde e.V." club made a new start in 2003 in the form of a regularity test. This is held every two years - apart from the forced Corona break.
The mountain was climbed a total of five times. After two training runs on a partly still damp course, the aim of the three scoring runs was to repeat the previously set time as accurately as possible.
The first race was still completely dry. This almost worked for the second race as well, but it had to be interrupted after a Group C driver slipped off the track in the starting bend.
During the forced break it started to rain, so that the high starting numbers and the approx. 20 motorcycles/carriages had to ride in the rain and on a wet track. As it was possible to hand in a slip of paper with the planned target time for each run at the start, the longer driving time that was now necessary did not represent an insurmountable obstacle to a good score.
In the end, Wolfgang and Maximilian Müller won in a 1983 Porsche 911 SC with a difference of 0.43 seconds. The two had set themselves a 2:09 time for the first run. Then a 2:30 each for the two "wet runs". In the first run there was a difference of just 0.01 seconds with a time of 2:09:01!
Second place went to the duo Ulrich and Daniel Link in their TVR 3000M from 1976 and a deviation of 0.52 seconds. The top three were completed by Markus and Frank Attig with a Porsche 356 SC from 1964 and 0.94 seconds.
The women's classification was won by Isabelle Britzelmayer, spontaneously assisted by Christian Kofler, who was unable to drive (his Opel Ascona was not ready), with her 1989 VW Golf Rallye and a difference of 2.49 seconds.
