European Ford Event 13-09-2009
Netherlands Landgraaf 13th september 2009
Now in its 19th year, this years European Ford Event promises to be
bigger and better than ever.
and probably the last time on this location!! We aim for something much
Bigger in 2010, updates following after the event in Landgraaf.
The Ford XR/RS club of Holland will once again be holding their
huge XR/RS show (3000 people) on September 13th 2009.
After several successful years at Baarlo Speedway Track, and at Sevenum,
both near Venlo, the show moved south in 1999 to the
large Sports Stadium at Landgraaf.
The Show
There is usually an attendance of over 3000 vehicles, with Ford clubs
from all over Europe, and it is an opportunity to see all the stuff
you have never seen before. RS2600’s, 2-door Sierra XR, Taunus, German
Spec RS1600i’s, etc, etc. Dutch insurance rules allow any modification
except bhp at no extra cost, so they are into
customizing / modifications in a big way. UK Fords have taken many of
the honors in the concours, so if you have a tidy motor, get it entered.
They prefer totally original, even with the odd
scratch, rather than mint but restored. And you don’t need the RSOC
logbook. The XR/RS club traditionally run sprint events down the track
all day. Anyone can participate. Especially the sprint-
races are favoured by all Ford-fans and are a guarantee for a lot of
spectacle and quite a few embarrased drivers ... !
With the meeting being a 1-day event, the Saturday is normally
"Nurburgring-Day" for the RSOC-members who come over to Holland for
the weekend.
This legendary circuit (over 14 miles long) is just a one hour drive
away from Landgraaf.
away from Landgraaf.
The XR owners club shall be there like every year and shall display
there selfs on the Club-Lane!

This year will be probably the last time on this site of the country. Because we are moving to a much better, bigger location. In the future we aim for a weekend. With a whole lot of spectacle, racing action and much more!!
In Holland we have a lot to offer, great beer, food etc.
Hope to see you guys on the other site of the canal with a lot of fast cars and beautiful concours cars

Not exactly what you´re used to Andy, the slalom isn´t exactly huge and the drag strip isn´t the longest...but you can clearly have a laugh from both courses. The drag strip is free too, so that´s a bonus.
Very enjoyable show, but once again I´m missing out because I´m here in Spain with work until Tuesday night

I think that's a great location.
Better and longer strip.
No more show & shine in the grass, but on tarmac. Maybe even indoors !
Plenty of parking space.
More space for the traders.
All in all a better facility....
