Assessment: In the course of the event an assessment of the vehicles will take place ac-cording to the following categories by a professional jury on Saturday, June 13th 2015:

1. P 70 and other IFA vehicles 2. P 50 Trabant 3. P 60 Trabant

4. Trabant P 601 Year of Construction 1964 to 1975 5. Trabant P 601 YoC 1976 to 1984 6. Trabant P 601 YoC 1985 to 1990

7. Trabant 1.1 8. Trabant „Kübel“ 9. Trabant „Tramp“ 10. Tuning cars 2-stroke 11. Tuning cars 4-stroke

Within each categorie prices (cups) are awarded from first to third place. The host reserves the right to award further material prizes depending on the

quantity of vehicles in each category.

The assessment merely refers to the authenticity of the vehicles. The catego-ries 2-stroke and 4-stroke tuning are exempt. The jury is determined to pro-

fessionalize the assessment by the help of documents and experienced and renowned jury members.

The jury will assess the vehicles so that the car which comes closest to the

state in which it was initially delivered will receive the first place. In case of an identical condition an authentic patina will be preferred over a new lac-quer. A road legal car will also be preferred, since the jury is convinced that the year-round use of the car adds more to the preservation of the historical

asset Trabant than the exclusive presentation of a car which is not road legal. The overall care will also be considered. Who took good care of his car will likewise be rewarded.

Furthermore the engine number, the VIN and the transmission number will be compared. The rims may not be older than 6 months in relation to the YoC of the car and shall be coined uniformly. All details shall correlate to the YoC and not be added later on. „Made up“ cars will not have a prospect on first

places. Thus the jury kindly asks to present only serious registrations during the assessment.

The tuning categories will assess 2-stroke and 4-stroke cars separately. The

workmanship of the modification will be assessed. Thus not only the records in the papers matter but also the technical work on the car itself. The more refined the modification the more likely the car is to reach the first places. A complete list of criteria will be coordinated previous to the ITT with all jury

members and published in the magazine Supertrabi and other media.

Insurance protection: The host concluded a liability insurance with the following limits of liability: 2,600,000.- Euro for personal injury maximum per incident 1,100,000.- Euro maximum for a single person

1.100.000,- Euro for material damage 100.000,- Euro for financial damage

The contract also covers the accident insurance for spectators.

Disclaimer of liability: The participants (drivers as well as co-drivers) take part

on their own risk. They bear the sole civil and criminal responsibility for all dam-age caused by themselves or the vehicles operated by them. By tendering their registration driver and co-drivers declare waiver to claims of any kind for damage that relate to the event, that is against the host, support, officials and other par-ties that relate to the organisation of the event as well as other participants. As

far as the operated vehicle is not the property of the participant, he nonetheless releases the favoured group of people from duty against claims by the car owner. This disclaimer of liability does not apply for personal or other damage that was

caused by negligent or wilful violation of duty by those favoured of this dis-claimer of liability. This disclaimer also applies to possible damage of the car caused by the attachment of the number or other badges of the event. It is the duty of the participant to attach the respective badges on his car.

In case of abortion of the event due to act of nature or safety reasons no claim of reimbursement for the admission fee or other damage applies.

Safety regulations: The motion of the vehicles must correlate with the guidelines of the German traffic regulations. Specific regulations do not apply since the event does not match the characteristics of a motorsport event or a rallye. On the venue of the event – Platz der Völkerfreundschaft – driving may not

exceed the speed of pedestrians (max. 5 km/h). Every participant is responsible himself for traffic safety. There will be no technical control. According to the regulations of the vehicle approval act from March 1st 2007

only vehicles permitted to go on public roads are entitled to participate.

General remarks: The host is responsible for the announcement and execution of the event. The interpretation of the announcement remains with the host. The orders of the host as well as his mandatees and supervisors are to be fol-

lowed under any circumstances. The host makes sure that during the whole time of the event a trained medical service will be either present or informed.
