50. Oldtimer-Grand-Prix

(Nürburgring, 11.08.-13.08.23)

The first time with the Elva Mk7s on the race track. The first time at a racing event.
Here the complete 2nd race of the “Dunlop A Gentle Drivers Trophy ’65” at the 50th Oldtimer Grand Prix at the Nürburgring.
Due to a technical problem in race 1, which resulted in a DNF, I had to start further back from 34th place in race 2. By the end, despite gearbox problems, I was able to move up to 5th place overall and won the class.

Now it’s a matter of optimizing the electronic peculiarities (e.g. tachometer not working properly), the setup, checking the transmission and much more, so that the car is much better prepared for the next race.

In this official video of the complete first race (on Saturday), I can be seen from about 7:44:00.
