1.01 HISTORY 

The Jänner-Rallye® in Mühlviertel has been organized since 1969 and was 

held 15 times up to 1986. Even then this event was a success with the public 

(spectator numbers of well above 100,000 were usual). Famous drivers of the 

rally sport, such as Stig Blomqvist, Per Engseth, Rudi Stohl, John Haugland, 

Rauno Aaltonen, Shekar Mehta, Ladislav Krecek and Mister Jänner-Rallye® 

Franz Wittmann characterized the Jänner-Rallye®. 

1986-2001 Jänner-Rallye® has not been organized because of lake of financial 

sources. 

In 2002 Jänner-Rallye® became IQ- Jänner-Rallye® and was brought back to 

life.. IQ is a petrol station brand owned by the oil wholesale company Julius 

Stiglechner, which was founded in 1923 (IQ-Diskont – simply fill up clever). The 

event was held again as Challenge 2002 and immediately became a complete 

success with big interest of the public (60,000 spectators). 

Due to this success RCM (Rallye Club Mühlviertel) was founded in July 2002 

with the purpose to further develop Jänner-Rallye®. 

2003: Jänner-Rallye® received the status of a championship (Austrian 

championship and FIA European Rally Championship Regional Cup Central 

coeff. 2). 

In May 2003 RCM acquired the rights of the name Jänner-Rallye® 

Another further big step in the development of this event was made on 

13.08.2003 by signing of the contract between the RCM and the Autoklub 

Ceske Republiky (ACR). The contract guaranteed that the Int. Jänner-Rallye® 

became part of the Czech championship 2004. 

2004: A remarkable number of starters was achieved with 85 starters from 8 

nations. 

2005/2006: Together with the Sumava-Rally an additional Winter Cup was held, 

which was well accepted by the drivers and teams with approx. 50 participants. 

The upward trend continued with 116 starters from 9 nations. 

2005 – 2009 more than 100 participants from up to 10 nations were usual, 

2009 FIA European Rally Championship Regional Cup Central Coff. 5. 

2010 Jänner-Rallye® had to be cancelled because of rejected approval by the 

Austrian authorities (3 month before the event a heavy accident happened by a 

hill climp race in Upper Austria). 

2011 FIA European Rally Championship Regional Cup Central Coeff. 10, 

100 participants, more than 100.000 spectators and more than 190 accredited 

journalists.
