Group N
The unexpected champion in the top class at last was Henny Hemmes; race control had told the participants to behave, and since Koks spun after a touch with van Kouwen, Hin and Ruitenbeek didn’t see the point in waiting for him and decided the race between themselves - though Hin retired, so Ruitenbeek had another win. Koks passed Hemmes, whose ABS did not work well, and she thought it was all over, but since she still finished third (and Koks second!) she won the championship with one point over Koks. In the next class, division 2 3000 cc, both Eglem and Vörös were disqualified after a hard battle in the race, the latter for an illegal car, the first one probably for a mishap in the race; Eglem kept his points and was champion, Vörös lost all his points and was third in the table - with zero points.
Division 2, 2000 cc: Postma was still angry after his disqualification in July, he felt betrayed by Bodt for a very tiny mishap (not taking the shortest route to technical inspection) and in the race he waited for Bodt to overtake and rammed him, so Bodt let it be and stayed behind - and got the title. After the race, Postma wasn’t proud of his behaviour.
No class without problems, and it was fair that the 1600 cc class had its disqualifications as well; Oeberius Kapteyn was disqualified for an illegal car, lost all his points, Bolderheij just lost his points for this race and van ‘t Hoff got the title ahead of Bolderheij.
What a mess.

Group A
Less trouble here; in a wet race, Hin enjoyed the spectators but overdid things and spun, just when he had taken the lead from van Dedem; he finally finished second overall but won the class and title. Van der Beek, back in the Mazda, finished third.
