The second exciting leg of the season takes the Ihle Motorsport team to picturesque Carinthia from April 10th to 12th, 2025, for the 2025 Lavanttal Rallye. The Opel Manta 200 Group B will once again prove itself there. With its curb weight of just 1,056 kg, it offers a lot of driving fun despite its "only" 186 hp as a rear-wheel drive vehicle.

A very special highlight awaits you on Saturday, April 12th: You have the unique opportunity to ride as a passenger for charity and experience a piece of motorsport history up close!

The first event of the season took us to the legendary Rally Costa Brava in Spain, a round of the European Historic Rally Championship. With our Opel Manta 400, we took on the challenging routes - and the unstable weather.
In a cool 5°C and rain, our Safari Manta 400 showed its reliability until a stuck brake master cylinder slowed us down on the last day. As a result, we had to skip the first two special stages - but after the repair we successfully fought our way to the finish!
A big thank you to our team and everyone who cheered us on! Now it's time to move on: Look ahead and prepare for the next challenges!
