Yes it did, regular visitors on 1000 Lakes Rally, as were the Wartburgs.
And I tnink there's Lombard-logo on the number sticker on that main picture, so it must be from RAC Rally.

It is the Trabant P601 that Michael Kahlfuß and Günter Friedmann placed 99th overall in the 48th Lombard RAC Rally in 1992.

Here

is a brief breakdown of Michael's rallye career.

Trabants were regularily rallied and raced with not inconsiderable success. They were consistent winners in the class up to 1000cc.
