The others ... (TA, TB, Silhouet and Guest)The Touring division has a somewhat surprising leader. The racing for Belgium TB-BMW of Broodcoren/De Coster leads the division due its strong reliability. Together with the Dehoen/Essers car, it's the only car finishing every race. Their task is clear for the Euphony 24 hours of Zolder: finishing. On pure speed nothing can be done against the faster TA BMW M3 GTR V8 of G&A Racing (Smets/De Keersmaecker/Verdonck), GS Motorsport with Severich/Steinberg/Neyens, Beliën/Jakobs/Brinkmann/Colman and Carlier Racing. Beckers, Cassiers and the Van Samang family complete the TA list.
In TB, competition will come from other BMW: Josten/ Van Campenhoudt/ Cracco, Dehoen/ Essers/ Grouwels/ Wijnen, Moore/Cox/Cloet on the brand new BMW E46, the beautiful BMW E46 Compact of Van der Kolk/Ambaum/Köhler/Thuis and last but not least, the Daikin-MINI driven by Ickx/Van de Velde/Grifnée/ Uljee. Vanina Ickx already showed strong pace throughout the season and certainly in the international LMES series.
KS Motorsport enters two BMW Silhouette for Bellingen/Leyssens/Vandermaesen/Fumal and Moonens/ Lippens/ Werckx/ Van Gorp. The team is confident and a top finish should be possible.
The other guests drive Porsche GT3. Teams from touring cup and BTCS join the Belcar regulars. H&M Racing, Luc Gabriël Racing, BPO Racing, Jes Competition, the Dumarey family, another car from Speedlover and AD Sport complete the grid of the 24 hours.
