GUM AutoRally will be held this Saturday, September 12. This year the event is dedicated to the 50th anniversary of LADA. The rally is held for the seventh time by GUM, Bosco di Ciliegi and the Gorkyclassic Automobile Historic Society.
On April 19, 1970, the Volga Automobile Plant produced the first VAZ-2101 Zhiguli. 100 classic Zhiguli will be racing along the picturesque route.
GUM AutoRally will begin precisely at midday. The three-hour ride will take the racers across 80 km and to the loveliest places in Moscow. The exact route is a closely guarded secret. The participants will discover their point of destination only upon receiving their itinerary. Their goal is to discover the control points and pass through them as many times as possible.
Everyone is welcome to see the starting ceremony of GUM AutoRally! All Rospotrebnadzor requirements will be met. Guests and participants will receive single-use gloves and masks. Safe distances will be maintained throughout.
This year Yves Caracatzanis, president of AUTOVAZ, will be riding in car #1. He will be driving one of the first VAZ-2101. Other automobiles will be piloted by Bosco di Ciliegi and GUM executives, sportspeople, artists, businesspeople, as well as friends of BoscoFamily, AUTOVAZ, and Gorkyclassic. The awards ceremony will be held in the evening, near the GUM fountain.
All participants will receive special presents from the Swiss brand Swatch. In July 2020, the global project Swatch X YOU came to Russia. The highlight of the pop-up space is the unique Swatch Canvas printer that allows for a pattern to be applied directly to the semi-translucent back and strap of your Swatch in just several minutes.
The first GUM AutoRally was held in 2014. The event remains one of the most large-scale and remarkable competitions for Soviet cars produced before 1991.
Ready! Set! Let’s celebrate the AUTOVAZ anniversary together at GUM AutoRally!
