Geocache Description:

Kvarner Caches is a series of hundreds excellent locations with hidden caches in Kvarner region - Croatian best kept secret :)

KVARNER Cache 48 is located next to Grobnik Circuit - the race-track which meets strick world standards of auto moto federation (FIA and FIM) and has licence for all auto moto races except F1.

Motor racing in Kvarner area have long tradition that goes as far as begining of last century. Yet there are two locations that have special place in that field.
Preluk and Grobnik are symbols of past and present. Preluk, by many characteristics unique in the world when motorcycles are concerned, can even be compared to Monte Carlo in that line. For three decades Preluk has been a host of numerous competitions, national and international, that have developed from Adriatic Prix tAdriatic Grand Prix and on September 14, 1969 for the first time the race counted toward the world championship. This lasted till the end of 1977 when, long expected and announced, suspension of all road Grand Prix races was confirmed. This decision was legitimate considering speed and safety of drivers and audience. From this year on races could be held only on motordrome.
Grobnik field started to be a big construction site and in only few spring and summer months of 1978. the race-track was built on this field by strict international standards that was immediately named «Grobnik beauty».
