On Saturday, the Group 2-4 cars had their race. In the under 1600 cc race. Vanierschot claimed another win, while the 1300 cc class finally was won by a Begian (Leeson) after Bolderheij, Hettelder and Plasmeijer all retired. The big class was won by Van Ooschot, dealing with Vanierschot’s BMW and the Turbo Porsches of Raus and Braillard.

On pole for the “production” race under 1600 cc was young Tassin, with De St. Hubert second. The latter pushed the pedal to the metal at the start, with the result of a broken throttle cable and 1 lost lap... Tassin was boxed in after the start, so Holvoet and Braillard won the race.
The over-1600 race was won by Martin - Semoulin had hired a Spice Capri, won the race but second was enough for Martin to claim the championship.
