about the original sliding pillar rally (UK)
Lancia’s characteristic independent front suspension, the Sliding Pillar, was an important ingredient of the firm’s success up to the early 1960s and this highly effective design is to be found on every car the company built from the highly innovative Lambda to the subtle Appia. It is thus fitting that this feature common to all Lancias built between 1922 and 1963 should give its name to certain events whose purpose is to highlight the fame and character of these marvellous cars, and bring together those Lancia enthusiasts who own or simply admire them.
Sliding Pillar Rally 2007 - Pays des Vallées (BEL)
The long-established Sliding Pillar Rally goes from strength to strength, and this year the fourth continental weekend will again bring together an eclectic group of Lancia enthusiasts. Gathering in a particularly attractive region on the banks of the river Meuse, they will share their love of good company, good food and above all superb cars. From 1st to 4th June participants will have an unequalled opportunity to discuss narrow V engines of all shapes and sizes, Lancia’s famous front suspension and numerous other topics of mutual interest.
The chosen routes for Saturday and Sunday are full of charm, indeed some participants may wish to stay a little longer to explore more of the region’s noted sites of interest. As is traditional in Belgium, some memorable meals are on the menu, while beer connoisseurs will as usual be spoiled for choice. Our riverside hotel offers the usual comforts as well as a sauna and a heated indoor/open air swimming pool.
Reserve your place now for this international event that is an established classic amongst lovers of older Lancias. British participants can avoid bank charges by paying in Sterling.
We look forward to meeting you for a highly enjoyable weekend in Wépion on 1st June.
