I'm quite sure Tony Longhurst won an AMSCAR race in either the 323i or 325i, but it depends on weather to regards an AMSCAR race major Group A race.

Thanks for refreshing my memory about the German GP support race. I remember reading something about it in the motorsport mag articles of the time that discussed Johnson's purchase of the Zakspeed built Mustangs.

Also, the AMSCAR races generally attracted pretty solid fields, so I think they can be regarded as at least as major as that Manfeild round of the NZ B&H series.
