2000 1000 km of Nürburgring

The 2000 Bitburger / AvD 1000 km of Nürburgring was the fourth round of the 2000 American Le Mans Series season. It took place at the Nürburgring, Germany, on July 9, 2000.

This was the second European round of the American Le Mans Series season. It, along with the Silverstone 500, served as a precursor to the creation of the European Le Mans Series. It gauged the willingness of European teams from the FIA Sportscar Championship and FIA GT Championship to participate in a series identical to the American Le Mans Series.

This was the first planned 1000 km event at the Nürburgring since 1988, although the World Sportscar Championship had run shorter events until 1991.

gollark: I disagree with that, actually.
gollark: It also took something like 10% of the time to write, which is good.
gollark: - unbee python- the osmarkspythonbuildsystem™ functions/variables, to the extent that they exist, constitute an "embedded domain specific language"- Python is more featureful than Dale syntax, however- well, mine does it seminonawfully, if you don't mind its complete lack of job throttling
gollark: Via parser combinators, I can define *exactly* what I want and easily parse it, unless it involves left recursion in which case aææææßæææaæææaaaaæææææææ.
gollark: This is why I combinate all my parsers.
