The race starts very early on Friday morning, and that very evening you can watch a special time trial racing through the streets of Zlín, the town made famous around the world by master shoemaker Tomáš Baťa.
The route, running for over 200 kilometres mostly along asphalt roads, leads through the picturesque Zlín region, famous for its vernacular architecture and folk traditions. Another tradition is the oldtimer Star Rally – Barum Rally Zlín Historic, which is hugely popular with fans.
