CCC, 1976, May
National Group 1 saloons. Change in format is the addition at the bottom end of a new up-to-1300 class.
The new small class was totally wiped up by the excellent Avenger 1300 of Bernard Unett, who qualified 2½ seconds faster than the rest in practice. Bernard happily chugged around to a comfortable win, while the massed ranks of Alfas scrapped amongst themselves at the back of the field. However, more sorting of the Alfasud Ti's could see them worrying Mr. Unett eventually. The championship looks as though it could get quite interesting.
