Someone mentioned to me that there was an upcoming (or just passed) 84 hour race in France/Germany this year of the vintage type. Does anyone have further info? The only info I could find was the races from the 1960's @ Nürburgring

84 hours? All I can think of are the old Marathon de la Route events in about 1967 - as you say, this was the Nurburgring.

Not sure about this one...

TimD,

thanks for the tip.
turns out i was a victim of misinformation. the race I spoke of as in fact the "Marathon de la Route endurance race". The key info iwas after was the TATRA contingent. Since, i found the following from 1966:
The result was a 1-2-3 victory in the 2500cc-and-under class and 3rd and 5th places overall for 2 of them.
