yep. it was in the trophy rules from the beginning, but only if the winner is under 35.
would be nice to have an official team with at least 2 cars...
btw, Tuukka Kauppinen is rumored to be one of the contestants, he'd be a good bet...

In fact, Carlberg will also become test driver for Opel and ambassador of the brand...
