* In the 80th of the last century the special stage, which runs between the villages of Ruska and Dolishniy Shepit (the road leading through Shurdin pass), was part of the road of «Karpaty Rally», owing the status of the Ukrainian SSR Cup.

* Total distance of rally «Karpaty-87» was 666.01 km, among of them 156.68 km of specials.

* In Soviet times, the race started in Kosiv, two days later, having passed Vyzhnytsya, Yavoriv, Vorokhta, Yaremche, Delyatyn, Kalush and Bodnar, the drivers were returning back in Kosiv, for the awards ceremony.
