I'll say!
A few of those cars were developed some more (!!) after the Käfer-Cup ended and ran in the Divinol Cup amongst the fastest and latest (of that time) Carrera RSR's in circuit-mode and they were right up there on the podium!
I had asked a question on the german bug-forum about the overhead cammed type 4 engines those guys used in the Divinol Cup (the Holzapfel Overfly engine) and - to my surprise and delight - one of the actual drivers of one of those cars responded!
Some of the photo's pictured there, I copied over here.
For Rob: Here's the link that features all of them:

and the same link on our dutch site but with some other Beetle Cup racing pictures for those who don't want to miss anything ;-)
