I saw the Käfer Cup a few times at the end of the 90's in Zolder,but then they were running "only" 2 liter engines,but it was nice to see them racing. Memory's........... ;) Title: Re: Käfer Cup, Germany 1993... video Post by: Nico86 on March 19, 2011, 20:11:08 pm Cool vid!

It didn't got better when the 2-liter class was established in 1996... Dr. Gerold is back on the track after health issues, here's a pic from last year Hockenheim. I'm going to meet Rolf and Kurt Hassmann next weekend, they're still doing crazy stuff...
