As part of the SRO Blancpain 1000 km race at the Nürburgring (20.9.-22.9.2013), the 4th round of the CER Championship(Classic Endurance Racing) took place in front of a modest crowd.

The CER championship has been running for 10 years, with six races in 2013 - Imola, Spa, Porto Boavista, Nürburgring, Paul Ricard and Barcelona. Endurance cars from the 1966 to 1979 seasons will be on the grid, including the Ford GT40, Porsche 910, Ferrari 512, BMW M1, Porsche 935, Lola T70 and others.

Shrinking field

Originally, 37 cars were on the entry list for Saturday's race, but only 30 of them actually started. The practice run and the two qualifying runs took place on Friday. The one-hour race on the afternoon of September 21, 2013 took place in dry weather, cloudy skies and temperatures of around 16 degrees.

Start-to-finish victory for Toj

On pole position was the TOJ SC 302 DFV from 1977, which was driven by Kevin Wilkins. The vehicle is the ex-Jörg-Obermoser car with the Warsteiner livery.

Kevin got off to a good start and steadily extended his lead. He took a classic start-finish victory over 27 laps. Second place went to F. Da Rocha in a Lola T298 BMW. Third and fourth went to a Sauber C5 with a BMW engine.

Pierre-Alain France won the P1 class in a Lola T70 Mk III B with starting number 70, finishing eighth overall.

The winner of the GT2 class, number 25 Nicolas D'Ieteren in a 1979 Porsche 935 K3, finished in seventh place overall.

The GT1 class was won by Santiago Orjuela and Juan Pablo Orjuela in 16th place overall in a Porsche 911 RSR 3.0 from 1974.

24 of the 30 vehicles that started were classified.

Supporting event?

Due to the schedule and the race on Saturday, all the teams left the Nürburgring in the evening, so that there was nothing left to see of the beautiful classic cars on Sunday. Bad luck for the spectators. On Sunday, however, the stage belonged entirely to the modern vehicles and there probably wouldn't have been too many people interested in the old sheet metal and plastic anyway.
