This event is the oldest historic car meeting in France as the first Coupes de l’Age d’Or was held on the Rouen-les-Essarts circuit in 1964 as a curtain-raiser to the French Formula 1 Grand Prix. In addition, it is particularly important for Patrick Peter who made his name known in the world of the motor car by associating the competences of his agency with it in 1984. After Montlhéry, the event is now held on the Dijon-Prenois circuit, the theatre of the most epic duel in the history of F1 during the 1979 French Grand Prix between Gilles Villeneuve in his Ferrari and René Arnoux in his Renault.

The short circuit in Burgundy (3.8 km) is a huge challenge for the drivers in the series by Peter Auto with, in particular, the blind La Bretelle corner, the uphill Parabolique hairpin and the never-ending very quick Pouas curve. The public love the dip and gather there in large numbers in what is almost a real stadium ideally situated only a stone’s throw from the paddocks. This is where the 300 racing cars are prepared throughout the weekend in temporary garages that are accessible to the spectators. In this zone too is the exhibitors’ village in which boutiques of all kinds whose common link is the motor car are installed.

We are delighted to announce the celebration for the 20th anniversary of the Modena Cento Ore, that will take place from June 2nd to 6th, 2020.
Stay tuned for the announcement of the new itinerary.

Eligible car are, as usual, all beautiful cars from the 30s to the 80s (FIA periods C to I).
As last year, we will feature a special “50’s drum-braked sportscar” class with a dedicated classification and a special prize.

Participants and their support crews will enjoy a rich programme on an exceptional route, in both the Competition and the Regularity sections.
The challenge will be tough, with 4 circuit races and a dozen special stages on uphill roads closed to traffic. At the end of the day participants will have the time to savour the best hotels of four magnificent cities of art, dinners in unique locations, great chefs and the best Italian wines.
The grids will be limited as usual to 100 cars, to make sure that we are able to keep the tight-knit and friendly atmosphere we really care about.

The rally will start with the registration on Tuesday, June 2nd and will finish in Piazza Grande, in the heart of Modena, on Saturday, June 6th.
Cento Ore, one hundred memorable hours!

You can choose to battle in tough races in the Competition section or opt for a lighter but still challenging experience in the Regularity section, which follows the exact same route, including racetracks and closed road stages.
