Electric cars appeared and competed with petrol cars even in the beginning of the 20th century. It is a pleasure for us to present the only one in Europe and one of the five in the world Rauch & Lang electric car built in 1918.

Whether you know through, what is the time the engine can "catch a wedge"? This year we will find out it together with participants of a American Spirit meeting. We have a car from which we will let out all oils and liquids. We will start the car and we will allow it to work while the engine will jam or he will explode. Participants of a American Spirit meeting will be able to think of time, how many will sustain a engine , the most exact forecast will be rewarded.
The engine will sing the last song in the main day of a meeting, on August 9.

Those who come on Friday are invited to participate in the competition “Big Poker Run”. The participants have to visit a number of control points located around the Western Lithuania.
