Fans and participants of the popular hill climb from Langwies to Arosa can breathe a sigh of relief: timed runs over the Nürburgring of the Alps will be possible again in 2013.
As the organization of the Arosa ClassicCar race announces, after intensive and constructive negotiations with the Swiss sports authority Auto Sport Switzerland, a solution has been found that allows the event to be held in two modes, namely as a hill climb with timekeeping under the name "Arosa ClassicCar Hill Climb" and without timekeeping as a performance demonstration under the name "Alpine Performance".
New regulations and competition modes
The organization has already adapted the regulations, which can be accessed online:
