Unanswered: Opel Manta finishes 24 hrs of Nurburgring in 46th place!

46th out of 216 cars, not a bad finish for a 20 year old car! Also, 4th in class. And highest placing Opel! It outlasted all the new Astras. Just finished watching online and listening on Radio LeMans. The 'Ring is pretty much run what you brung so you get everything from the ubiquitous Porsche RSR's and Aston Martins to the occasional oddball Fiat 500 or Opel Manta. Even an old Austin Mini Cooper finished this year.

Result Database - 36. ADAC Zurich 24h-Race
