Top 16 Ultrace 2021

In 2019, we shed some light on Poland’s Ultrace event (questionably named ‘Raceism’ back then) and it went on to be one our most viewed stories of the year. The event was scaled right down in 2020 due to the Covid pandemic, but for its full-scale return this year, I knew I had to travel to Wrocław and check it out.

Now that it’s happened, if there’s one takeaway from the event for me, it’s that stance enthusiasts all over Europe have been very busy in their garages over the past 18 months. Photos will illustrate this better than words ever will, so I’ll keep the writing short and the picture count high.

In this covid year, we had to face serious difficulties in crossing the borders. The border between Russia and Belarus had to be overcome through the forests in a jeep, giving the Camaro to a stranger. And we had to cross the border with Poland with documents from the hospital as if we had been ill with covid in Belarus.

This time on the Camaro, as in 2019 on the Lexus IS250, we managed to get into the Top 16. This is an excellent result, knowing that the number of participants is more than 1000 from all over Europe.
