registration is 200quid, 50quid when signing up then remainder later, and from what I can gather cars can't cost more than 100quid!

About the Rally
If you’re a banger rally diehard then Ramshackle Krakow may be just the adventure for you. It's a rally with an attitude and it's not an easy ride. The days are long, the nights are longer and when you're not behind the wheel or propping up a bar at one of the magnificent venues you'll be crying for a little bit of shut eye to take away the pain.

It’s a character building adventure endurance test that is all about guts and gusto. There is the usual Ramshackle sized helping of absurdity and bucket loads of camaraderie because this rally takes you and your banger to within an inch of your lives and keeps you there for 4 long days.

The rally lasts for four days as teams compete in the daily challenges to score points and win a place on the legendary Cannonball Run. (Europe)


On Your Marks...
The rally starts on the 3rd August 2007 in Calais which for those of you who don't know is just over the channel in a country called France. If you've ever been to Calais before then you'll understand that thing can only get better from here on in!

The rally is officially over on the 6th August 2007 when we reach Krakow. Teams wishing to scrap their bangers in Krakow should be aware, that due to Polish bureaucracy, it is unlikely to be possible on the last night of the rally or in the morning if you have an early flight. Book a later flight if you need to scrap your car. Other info on getting rid of your banger will be available to registered teams closer to the time.

Theme Your Team
Giving your banger a seriously flashy paint job is all part of enjoying the rally. There will be a prize awarded to the team with the best overall theme taking the banger and the team members into account.

This prize will be judged on originality so there's no need to worry if you're no Picasso. Put your creative caps on and let's make this into the biggest mobile fancy dress party in the world!

Prizes
This is winner takes all and it's worth fighting for. The team taking the cake in Ramshackle Krakow 2007 will walk away with free entry to the legendary Cannonball Run Europe. The prize is for a team of two and includes: ferry crossings, accommodation, parking, breakfasts, evening meals, arrival drinks at each hotel, selected lunches, track day, final night party (including accommodation), car decals and route packs. Additional team members may be added to the prize by making a supplement payment to Cannonball Run Europe Events directly.

Entry Fee's
Entering the rally costs £200 for a team of up to four people. This year we are limiting team member numbers to a maximum of four.

Signing up is quick and easy. Just visit the sign up page and submit your information then continue to make payment.

When signing up you will be asked to pay a deposit of £50 to hold your place. Once all places are filled, the balance of the entry fee will be due. You will be emailed when your place is confirmed and asked to pay the balance.
