The Central European Zone Rally Championship is a regional rally championship organised by the FIA Central European Zone, consisting of multiple national rally events forming a regional championship structure for Central European competitors.
History There are four separate championships contested under the Central European Zone banner, and unlike other FIA Zone rally series there is no overall champion. The classes are Production Cars (for Group N vehicles), Class 2 (for Super 2000), 2WD (for FIA classes 5 through 10 which includes Super 1600) and Historic. The Historic class is run largely separate from the other three championships with its own calendar, although it does share some events.
Events are held in Hungary, Austria, Croatia, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Poland, Italy, Slovakia and Serbia.
