The “Rude Kauno” rally is one of the oldest motorsport competitions, which started in 1974 and has been organized every year since then. His story continued even in the most difficult years of the blockade for the country, when there was a catastrophic fuel shortage, but no one distracted motorsport professionals and fans from the annual event. Now, the veterans of this race remember how everyone in their possession had tirelessly removed even the tiniest fuel reserves from hiding places and poured them into sports car tanks to continue the story of the blood-burning rally.
