As early as 1935, 1938 and 1939, racing drivers ventured up the Grossglockner with their sometimes monstrous vehicles to win the Grand Mountain Prize. In 2012, the tradition was revived for the first time and a revival was held on the occasion of the Grossglockner Grand Prix. It was obviously a success, as most of the participants returned in 2013 to compete against the mountain and the clock once again. This report shows vehicles and impressions of the event and lists the participating vehicles in a sortable table.
