Only vehicles authorised to drive may take part in the event.
We require a valid written certificate from you in accordance with §57a Para. 4 KFG 1967 (Austrian standard) or §29 of the Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO - German standard).
This will be copied and stored in the registration office.
Please obtain a valid written certificate in advance, as an on-site inspection is not possible.
Tractors with a design speed of less than 25 km/h, which are not subject to periodic inspections, must be checked by you for roadworthiness and operational safety.
Our partner, Lagerhaustechnik Bruck, will be happy to assist you.
On request, the experienced mechanics will carry out a quick check on your tractor.
If you have any technical questions regarding the quick check, please contact Lagerhaustechnik Bruck directly (+43 6545 6528).
Attention! Lagerhaustechnik Bruck is NOT able to carry out an expert opinion according to §57a para. 4 KFG 1967.
Tractors that are not classified as roadworthy and operationally safe cannot take part in the evaluation drive on 21 September 2025.
Teilnehmer aus Deutschland werden darauf hingewiesen, dass das rote 07-Kennzeichen in Österreich nicht als gültige Fahrzeugzulassung anerkannt wird. Fahrzeuge mit deutschem rotem 07-Kennzeichen gelten nicht als zugelassene Fahrzeuge im Sinne des § 82 KFG 1967.
Fahrzeuge mit diesem Kennzeichen sind von der Teilnahme an der Oldtimer TraktorWM ausgeschlossen.
Als rechtlich zulässige Alternative können deutsche Kurzzeitkennzeichen (gelbes Kennzeichen) verwendet werden. Fahrzeuge mit solchen Kennzeichen gelten für die Dauer ihrer Gültigkeit in Österreich als zugelassen und dürfen entsprechend verwendet werden.
Wir empfehlen allen Teilnehmern, dies bei der Anreise und Teilnahme an der TraktorWM zu berücksichtigen, um rechtliche oder versicherungsrechtliche Probleme zu vermeiden.
Ein 07-Kennzeichen wird bei der Anmeldung erkannt, es folgt ein Teilnahmeverbot (die Teilnahmegebühr wird nicht refundiert).
We would like to point out that road users are also to be expected in the closed section (Ferleiten till Fuschertörl from 07:30 - 10:00 a.m.). Special care must be taken when travelling down the road (e.g. overtaking, in hairpin bends, etc.). Furthermore, we can only allow participants to take part in the competition ride if their clothing or other appearance suggests that all fittings and controls are in proper working order.
Rides in the region should also be prevented as much as possible this year, rallies are prohibited.
That means for you: Park your tractor at your accommodation on Thursday, drive to Ferleiten on Friday to register and stay there overnight, enjoy the world championship ride up the Grossglockner on Saturday and park at your accommodation again.
Refuelling the vintage tractor with synthetic fuel is mandatory.
The fuel must be obtained from us during the event weekend.
There is a minimum refuelling quantity, which is 10 litres for tractors with a small tank volume (up to 25 litres) and 20 litres for all other tractors.
The synthetic fuel can be mixed with normal fuel. No one has to empty their tank, the synthetic fuel can be added to the fuel already in the tank.
The minimum refuelling level is checked by us in Ferleiten during registration.
So that you don't have to worry about your vintage tractor, we offer you a monitored car park in Ferleiten. A security company will be on site all night to protect your tractors from theft and vandalism.
We ask for your understanding that we nevertheless accept no liability for damage, theft or similar.
Another advantage is that your tractors will already be in pole position on the Saturday before the start.
This ensures a smooth start.
We ask you to use this opportunity and park your tractor in Ferleiten from Friday to Saturday, as this is a requirement of the authorities.
The more you comply with this, the better our chances of being able to organise the Oldtimer Tractor World Championships in the future.
Our free shuttle buses will take you comfortably from Ferleiten to Bruck and back to the start in Ferleiten on Saturday.
Oldtimer tractors with electric drive
Due to developments in relation to the environment and nature, we are constantly facing new challenges in the course of the Oldtimer Tractor World Championships. We are therefore taking various measures to improve our ecological footprint. We would be delighted to receive a converted oldtimer tractor with an electric drive, which we will allow to take part in our World Championship free of charge in addition to the 450 starters*.
If you are the proud owner of a converted vintage tractor with an electric motor, please contact us by e-mail (traktorwm@bruck-fusch.at).
Unfortunately, e-tractors cannot be included in the world championship ranking.
