It was wet at Zandvoort this Sunday; the big cars had a difficult start, with Langeberg sandwiched between Krab and van Dedem, but it was van der Beek who led once again. Then van Krimpen, starting from behind with a street engine in his car, played the 4x4 card and passed van der Beek for the lead. While Krab lost his right front wheel, so the order at the line was van Krimpen, van der Beek (champion) and van Dedem.
In the under-2 liter race, Huisman decided for intermediates; he was the only one in Zandvoort who thought the rain might ease. It didn’t, and he was forced to change to wets. His championship still was safe, since Kalff did not finish higher than fourth, even after the disqualification of Top, who yet again had an illegal engine and had overtaken under yellow. Up front, it was Bolderheij who won with the surprising van der Heijden second and Caron third - the latter had been leading for a while.
