3rd gear 1,36 : 1 1020 1,26 : 1 1760

Markus Reinhardt writes: As Rally-Beetle driver G? Janger (Aut) changed the team
at the end of 1972 season, Porsche Salzburg took Achim Wambold (Ger)
from BMW Germany under contract. Wambold never competed in a Beetle before,
so it was very surprising that he has won the Rally in January 1973 in Austria.
The other Beetle-racers placed 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th!!
The next rallye was the TAP-Rallye in Portugal. 4 Beetles fought bravely, but none of them
finished this cruel race. Drivers were Harry K䬬str?Swe), Tony Fall (GB), and Gr?dl (Aut).
In April 1973 Achim Wambold was back again to race the Rallye Elba (Italy) for the Austrian Team.
Other drivers were Trombotto (Ita), Fischer (Aut) and again Gr?dl (Aut).
Wambold took the chance and outraced all the others - hat-trick!

In mid 1973 the 1302S was replaced by the new 1303S. The pit-stop photo (above)
shows Tony Fall and Georg Fischer while taking part in the Acropolis Rally.

Harry K䬬str?Swe).
The 1973 Acropolis Rally (Greece). Janger (Aut) came back to the team.
K䬬str?Swe), Janger (Aut), Fischer (Aut) and Fall (GB) were drivers this time.

Janger, Fall and K䬬str?id not finish the race; Fischer finished 5th overall and
1st in Group 2 (special GT-class).
The photos were taken from "Gute Fahrt" 12/1973.
