Photo Gallery «Gallery NK HTGT - Hockenheim Historic 2011»

The NK HTGT, the Dutch championship for historic touring cars and Gran Turismo, was visiting the Hockenheimring from Holland and offered a lot for the car and the ear. Georg Stummeyer left nothing to chance in both races and lapped a considerable proportion of the field, which was not slow either. He also benefited from the bad luck of Corvette driver Michiel Campagne, who had to start from the back of the field in the first race and fought his way up to third place. He owed this fabulous result not least to the 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport, a so-called "continuation car" of the legendary five-car series that Duntov initiated in 1962. Michiel Campagne had the Corvette drifting so that it was a joy to drive, true to the motto: what do I need a steering wheel when I have an accelerator pedal? However, the Lotus Elan pack kept up surprisingly well with this hustle and bustle and finished the first race in 2nd, 4th and 5th place, the second in 3rd, 4th and 5th place, because Michiel was able to drive the Grand Sport to second place. The field of NK HTGT cars included a number of goodies, such as the 1965 Iso A3C, the TVR Griffith 200, which unfortunately only took part in the first race, and the 1965 Alpine A 110 - beautiful cars with good sound qualities.
