For the last 24 hour race on the traditional track, there were some star teams entered in this race. World champions Rosberg and Vatanen shared a car with Dieter Schäfer - but the latter smashed the car into the barriers after his suspension broke, and after repairs an oil leak terminated the drive.
Then we had the talented team of Quester, Bellof and Jelinski who had an underprepared BMW 323 as transport - it retired after 24... err laps. Another nice team was Krämer, Norbert Haug (journalist at the time) and Manfred Winkelhock. They drove an Eichberg Capri and it even finished in 34th place - but it wasn’t prepared as well as the other team cars, the first delay happening only 50 meters after the start; the throttle cable had snapped. According to teammanager von Osterroth “everything had been changed apart from the engine and gearbox”.
Stommelen shared an Opel Monza with Herler and Döring, Herler having a frightening off when his rim broke. Hans Stuck, sharing a BMW 528 with Middelhaufe and Heiner Müller could return to Bavaria before midnight after Müller crashed the car while Harald Grohs, piloting a Kadett (and even leading the race for a while) retired after 6,5 hour with a blown head gasket.

Victory went to the untroubled Eichberg Capri of Gartmann, Ludwig and Niedzwiedz - their main opponents, Manthey/Bröhling/Dahlen which had been in the lead lap all the time, crashed the Escort RS in the morning in a rain shower on slicks: The Eifel weather played havoc in the morning, one side of the track was wet, the other side dry; rain tires were a no-go, so Winkelhock entertained the spectators with rallye drifts through the wet corners - while about 20 privateer cars were driven not quite as skilled and ended at the side of the track - severely damaged.
