Beschreibung
A gripping story of race car drivers Zdeněk Vojtěch and Břetislav Enge, who became stars of the European Touring Car Championship in 1983 and enchanted fans and foreign journalists with their BMW 635 CSi Hartge, built at home in Prague and Liberec. In amateur conditions, a miracle was born thanks to the enthusiasm and skill of everyone in the team. Both thirty-somethings had their lives changed, both in sports and privately. They became stars and paid professional athletes hired by BMW. Zdeněk was on the Munich roster in 1984, Břetislav two seasons later. But just as the legendary racer Eliška Junková's career was halted in 1928 by the death of her husband, so too did the career of the duo Vojtěch-Enge not take off globally, this time due to the political situation. A gripping story, complemented by period photographs and testimonies from witnesses, documented by the renowned Czech photographer and commentator of motor events Martin Straka.
