HTCC - Historique Tourisme Champion Car - Nogaro 2023

 

The start of the first HTCC race of the weekend as the cars negotiate turns 1 and 2.  A Ford Sierra Cosworth leads.

The HTCC cars are classic saloon cars such as Group 1 cars homologated up to 1981, Group N cars homlogated up to 1992, Peugeot 505s of the Coupe Antho, and Group 2 and A up to 1992,   The cars are really well turned out and are often in nostalgic liveries.   Nice to see a good variety of cars and some good racing even if the winner was never really in doubt.
