Historic
rally promotions is for more than 15 years active
in the historic rally scene. Kurt Vanderspinnen started
in the regularity world with a smal MG B Roadster. This
had to move for an faster and more enjoyable Alfa Romeo
Guilietta Sprint from 1959. With this small car several
general and class wins were obtained in Belgium and international
events, as Antwerp-Middelkerke, Le Jog, Targa Rusticana,
etc.
In
2003 it was time to make the move from road rallying to
stage rallying, with a NSU TT. At once Kurt became Belgian
Champion in its class in 2003, thanks to the help of co
drivers Erwin Berkhof and Filip De Munck. During the 2004
season, the Ford Lotus Cortina was bought, in order to
compete in the FIA rallies throughout Europe. This car
brought us many class wins in Omloop van Vlaanderen, Ypres,
Midnattsolssrallyt (Sweden), Rallye du Var (France), Vltava
Rally (Tsjechië), etc.
In
2007 the team competed in ‘The World’s Greatest
Rally’, the East African Safari Classic, with the
Volvo 142 S. With Erwin Berkhof in the co drivers seat,
the Kurt finished this grueling event, despite some technical
problems, at the 33th place.
In
2008 and 2009 the team competed with the Volvo 142 S and
the Lotus Cortina in several European events, and recently
the team started the development of a very exiting car
: the Alfa Romeo GTV6. The car will be ready in Group
A configuration for the 2010 season.
In
2004 the team decided to deal its large experience with
other historic rally drivers and enthusiasts. The ‘Rally
Rental and Service’ department is offering several
well prepared cars for rent for regularity and stage rallies,
together with the fully equipped service team. Since several
teams enjoyed the pleasure of driving our cars and/or
the professionalism of the service crew.
