Would the Osterreichring and the Nurburgring fall into the Central Zone of the European Formula Vee championship? I need to find the right sources for that.

[Rob Semmeling]

This is from a post I made back in 2010:

 

 

The European Formula Vee Cup was arranged in four zones:

Northern Zone: Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway
Western Zone: Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Monaco, UK, Ireland
Middle Zone: Germany, Italy, San Marino, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary
Southern Zone: Spain, Portugal, Andorra

Each zone held preliminary rounds, the best drivers from each zone progressing to the finale races, for example held at Zolder and the Nürburgring in 1968.

 

Hope that answers your question.

[D-Type]

Was there any change in the zones over the years reflecting the change in support for the formula in different countries?

Rob Semmeling. Thank you for that. I'm looking for European Formula Vee Cup races in 1972. Gunnar Nilsson did the Osterreichring and the Nurburgring. I have photos showing him there.

Cadwell Park, B.A.R.C., 18 July 1971

Top of the bill is the 30-lap

British qualifying round of the

Western Zone of the 1971 Euro-

pean Formula Vee championship. 

Points leader Lucien Reyners

(Kaimann) from Belgium is

entered, as are Finn Mikko Kaza-

rowitzky (Veemax) and half a

dozen other rapid Scandinavians.

Motoring News, 15 July 1971, Page 35

 

Results:

1.— Mikko Kozarowitzky (Veemax Mk 4B) 52m 17.6s (77.44 mph)

2.— Tommy Brorsson (Hansen Mk 3)

3.— Marti Kangas (Austro Kaimann)

4.— Ron Grant (Austro)

5.— Neil Harrison (Monaco)

6.— Malcolm Horwood (CM)

Fastest lap: Kozarowitzky, 1m 42.2 (79.25 mph) new lap record 

 

Do you have any dates for 1972?

I'll see what else I can find.

You asked on Facebook whether FV supported the 1000kms - for 28 May 1972 (SP, GT, T) so not.

Thank you Rupertlt1 Just trying to pin down when Gunnar was there! I have a photo of him there.

[eukie]

Nilsson appears in the programme for the FV1300 race at the Nürburgring 500 KM, September 2/3 1972: #32, RPB - so this might fit with the photo. No trace of him in the results (ONS Mitteilungen 12/1972; race report in rallye racing 10/1972), so maybe DNS or DNQ?

[sstiel]

Thank you very much eukie. I'll have to find out why. I did speak to Jens Hansen about it and Gunnar had an accident that may have stopped him participating in the race. I'll have to find a good race report about it.

A few anomalies in that last post Rupert. Bill Scott was U.S. Formula Super Vee champion in 1971 and 1972 but driving Royales, RP9 and RP14 respectively. Also modern Ralts didn't appear until 1975 with the RT1 which carried on until 1978 in various forms. The RT4 was the early eighties Formula Atlantic model, the RT5 being the Formula Super Vee model which would have raced in 1982 but not 1972.

You are quite right — I've amended the quote.

[Michael Ferner]

Ahh, you can't do that! Now, RT4 owners can no longer claim that their car was eligible for 1972 Super Vee because they "read it on the internet"

[sstiel]

I know Motoring News and Autosport sometimes reported on Formula Super Vee races. I was wondering what the best ones for the Castrol GTX and the Gold Pokal championships.

[proviz]

If you look for a regular publication that covered them all, German Sport Auto might be your best bet. The reports were often brief though, so there would not necessarily be any mention of Gunnar if he didn't have a prominent role in a particular race.

[sstiel]

Hmm yes. Jon Saltinstall did a great job with Niki Lauda's Vee races. Gunnar though tended to finish in the top six. Where would be a good source for SportAuto?

Presumably Google doesn't come up with anything.
You could try the British Library or the National Motor Museum Library.  If they don't have a set of the magazines they should know which German libraries do or whether any library has a scanned set.
But being a media researcher, I assume you know other better potential sources.

In 1969 Simon Taylor described the zones thus:

Presumably four preliminary 'zone' races, plus two 'final' races, at Zolder, 27-28 July 1968, and Nürburgring Südschleife, 21-22 September 1968.

THAT EUROPEAN INVASION

News about this year's U.S. entries at the

Nurburgring Vee race isn't quite as available

as it was last year—possibly because it isn't as

good. In fact, it's not good at all! Generally

speaking, the U.S. drivers fared about the

same as the European drivers did at Daytona

last winter.

The first three places were, as usual (in

Europe) taken by "those Austrians," though

not in the usual order. Dr. Helmut Marko

took first place, Nicholas Lauda (a new name

in the front rank) took second, and Peter

Peter was third. Gunther Huber, usually

among the first three, did not participate in

this race.

Bill Scott, who went as an independent,

driving a German-built McNamara Vee, made

the best showing for an American driver. He

came in fourth, 3/10ths of a second behind

Peter Peter, but nearly 40 seconds behind Dr.

Marko. (He led the race by some 18 seconds

last year.)

As for the Vee "team," Bill Campbell got

himself eliminated Friday in a practice shunt.

The others finished: Ray Weaver, 10th; Jim

McDaniel, 13th; Bill Greer, 17th; Steve

Pieper, 25th. Harry Ingle, who had the fastest

qualifying time of the U.S. team, got off to a

good start; but his throttle cable broke in the

second lap, eliminating him. Of the two Cana-

dian drivers, Gunther Decker finished 35th

and Wayne Kelly did not enter, after his car

was severely damaged during Friday's practice.

No alibis, excuses, or explanations have

been made as this is written.

126 Trophy for Formula Vee Cars

Final qualifying round West Zone, Formula Vee Championship for the European Cup.

The top six drivers in each zone are invited to participate in the two-part European Championship final at Linköping (Sweden) 31st August, 1969, and the Nurburgring on 12th October, 1969.

The previous Western Zone races were at Montlhéry on 20th April and Zolder, 1st June, both events won by Bernard Goffinet (Austro) from Belgium putting him in an unassailable position with 60 points, to win the Western Zone Championship, £100, and a magnificent trophy.

The battle for second place is hotly contested between Steve Matchett (Austro) the ex-Dan Gurney American-born mechanic who now resides in Great Britain, and Frenchman Claude Bonnet (Bora) who drives a car he designed and built himself.

These drivers both have 25 points, and they should provide one of the race ???? for 2nd and 3rd championship prizes of £70 and £50 each.

Thirteen different makes of cars and eight countries will be represented on the grid, from Belgium, France, Germany, Finland, the Netherlands, Switzerland, ????, and Great Britain.

German dental technician Hannelore Werner provides the feminine interest, who won the European Ladies' Championship in 1968.

The British challenge to the Europeans and Scandinavians rests largely on the shoulders of the famous Formula Vee trio of "Fearless" Fred Saunders, Mike Hayselden and of course Steve Matchett. These three have been doing battle weekly in the Financings National Formula Vee Championship, and Matchett holds the Thruxton record at 1m. 33.8 sec.

The prize money for the 126 Trophy Race is awarded to the first ten drivers: £100 for the winner, down to £10 for tenth place. Indianapolis-style lap money is also awarded at £1 per lap for the race leader.

 

The search for George Reynolds and his Elfin goes on — no sign of him in 1968 — does he appear anywhere in 1969?

Steve Matchett resident at Ashford, Kent — which would fit the Dan Gurney connection.
