Under 1600 cc
Frans Derr dominated the small class, while Kroesemeijer had a lonely victory in the 1600 cc department. Bolderheij had been close in practice, but in the race he could not keep up with the Carly-prepared Pamatex car. The second Pamatex car retired, while both Uiterwaal and Zonneveld rolled their Talbots!

Over 1600 cc
Another pole for Cleutjens, and another short race for Houthuyzen: this time, his clutch broke in practice and in the race he retired in lap 1. After the start, De Jager was hit and swerved from left to right over the track but could continue, albeit in last place. Cleutjens led on lap 2, with Vermeulen, Moritz and Hemmes following. But it became another victory for the Camaro of Vermeulen when he passed Cleutjens and was able to keep the lead, though Cleutjens was only 0,3 seconds adrift at the line. Oeberius Kapteyn seemed to have the 2500 cc class in the pocket, but suddenly his engine lost oil pressure and he had to give up. De Jager won the race after a magnificent drive, while Bénard was black flagged because of accident damage in lap 1.
