What they thought about it

As both a participant and a partner in the event, I am delighted to have taken part in this truly extraordinary rally, and very proud to be part of a wonderful project that I am convinced will quickly become a must-attend event on the Belgian automotive calendar. What stands out for me, of course, are the extraordinary landscapes, the fabulous road book, and the magnificent roads—but above all, the young co-drivers and drivers who, over the course of two days, discovered and shared a new passion for vintage cars.

[...] Big applause for the flawless organization and for all the crews, who were so friendly and cheerful.

YVES DEFLANDRE Austin Healey 1964, 2-times winner

I’m used to more performance-oriented rallies; here, you had to be more precise and rigorous, since the outcome didn't depend on the car's power. I’m also very happy to have helped my father win his first rally—he had consistently finished second in recent years…

JULIEN PAISSE Porsche 356 C n°23, winner

My husband and I drive separate cars with our two sons. It is truly extraordinary to experience this with them. Their little sister is a bit jealous, but she is still too young to participate. Her turn will come. But I have a feeling the ‘2 GENERATIONS CLASSIC’ is going to be a major topic of conversation in our family…

DENISE VAN DER WEYDEN Austin Healey MKI n°14, 56th

Odrick and I had already done a few rallies together, but I have to say he really amazed me at this 2 GENERATIONS CLASSIC. Before the start, I thought a top-15 finish would have been more than perfect. At 12 years old, it’s clearly in his blood. We had a fantastic time over these two days. We promise to come back next year !

The idea of introducing the younger generation to regularity rallying and vintage cars is truly excellent. We had a wonderful rally experience. It’s impressive to see the progress the children make in just a few hours. Personally, I would organize a test section as a non-competitive prologue during the scrutineering day, so that young participants who wish to do so can get acclimatized before the rally actually starts. We’ll definitely be back next year !

ERIC CLAEYS Dastun 240Z n°55

When I heard the 2 GENERATIONS CLASSIC was being organized, I signed up a car immediately. Then, during a family meal, I asked my children and my father who wanted to join me. Dad was the quickest to say yes. These two days of rallying confirmed our shared passion for cars, even though this was our first time participating in a regularity rally…

BRUNO THERY Porsche 3.0 SC n°64, 21st

This was my very first time driving in a rally. At the start, I didn't know what to expect at all, but after these two days, I’m left with incredible memories of a very special weekend with my dad. It was absolutely brilliant !
