Nürburgring 24 Hours

night racing on the 'Green Hell'!

24 hour GT racing is a spectacle to behold no matter where in the world it takes place. But throw in a grid of over 200 cars and put them all on the ‘Green Hell’ and things get cranked up a little! This is the recipe for the Nurburgring 24 Hours.

The racing is spread over four action packed days. The highlights include night qualifying on Thursday evening for the 24 Hours grid, a round of the German Drift Challenge on the GP circuit on Friday evening, a four hour Classic race around the Nordschleife on Saturday morning and, of course, the main event starting at 4pm on the Saturday. There are numerous other support races during the course of the event including ADAC Procar (2 litre German touring cars) ADAC Formula Masters (1.6 litre VW single seaters) and Formula Ford.

With numerous other cars such as the Ford GT, the Aston Martin Vantage V12 and the Alpina B6 expected to return in 2010 the variety at the sharp end of the grid is ensured. Add to this the huge number of privateer teams running anything from M3s to Civics and it is easy to see why the race generates such high drama from start to finish each year. Make sure that you are there to enjoy it, there really is nothing else like this anywhere in the world!

variety up and down the grid is what makes the N24 so special
