Arrow Torpedo Run – Exclusive Road-Rally

The countdown has begun until the flags drop in Hamburg, Germany, to start this year's Torpedo Run (www.torpedorun.com) which will be held between 16th September 2005 - 24th September 2005. First teams entered the rally to conquer the streets of Europe during this sensational event.

During the run you will get to know several European countries. On the German Autobahn you will be able to drive as fast as you want. You will also experience winding roads in the mountains and cruise along the Mediterranean Sea. Scenery and streets of Europe differ from country to country and are always breathtaking.



New challenges and exclusive VIP events are going to await you. This is e. g. the visit of the powerful DTM race in Avignon (France), which will take place on a spectacular street circuit. The DTM is Europe's most popular touring car series with aces such as Mika Häkkinen and Allan McNish in the grid. Also driving on legendary racetracks, a contest between the participants in hovercrafts or a factory tour at one of the most exclusive supercar-manufacturers of Italy are planned. You will experience and enjoy a lot of things!

The feedback concering the route across Europe is great. Interested people said that we sorted out a fantatsic route inluding very well selected events at the daily checkpoints. Here's a link to the route:

Cars who join the Torpedo Run are not classified. Whether you are driving a brand-new Porsche or Ferrari, a cool Mini S or a classic Jaguar - your passion for the Torpedo Run is what counts!

Don't miss the drive of your life and become part of a very exclusive group! You find more information and the entry forms on
