The Dakar Classic is a category within the famous Dakar Rally designed for vintage and historic vehicles that participated in or are inspired by the Dakar Rally of the 1980s and 1990s. This category was introduced to celebrate the heritage of the rally and allow enthusiasts to compete with older vehicles in a less extreme format than the modern Dakar Rally.

We recently visited the Petersen Museum in LA to see the We are Porsche exhibit. A retrospective of 75 years of Porsche racing, design and passion. One of many of the cars we found really interesting was a Porsche 914 with a sticker of a Panama Alaska Rally we never heard about.
