Red Bull Ring, Hockenheim Historic, Kadett test & Nürburgring preview
While we were unfortunately unable to compete with our DTM Kadett at this year’s Red Bull Ring Classic and the Hockenheim Historic – the finishing touches simply needed some time – our wheels were still prominently represented! And on truly special vehicles from the golden era of motorsport.
Our wheels as ambassadors of the classic motorsport era
From one-piece to three-piece designs – our forged light alloy wheels made of aluminum and magnesium made a brilliant appearance at the Red Bull Ring and in Hockenheim. We are particularly proud of the presentation of our IRM-R3 and IRM-R5 models, which were mounted on lovingly restored classic cars. Classic design meets modern technology – not only visually appealing, but also impressive on the racetrack.

Kadett test in Papenburg – ready for the Nürburgring!
The time has finally come: our DTM Kadett is finished! And we couldn’t be happier. But before we hit the legendary Nordschleife in September and the GP circuit of the Nürburgring before that, we had to put the car through its paces – so we went to ATP in Papenburg. There we were able to test how our Kadett with its 280 hp performs under the best conditions.
Apart from a few minor issues (yes, the exhaust was perhaps a little too loud…), everything ran like clockwork. The car is excellent on the road, the driving experience is great, and the anticipation of the upcoming race is huge!
ADAC Nürburgring Classic (June 13-15): We will be there!
From June 13 to 15, it’s full speed ahead at the ADAC Nürburgring Classic! We are particularly pleased that Volker Strycek will be taking part – and he will not be the only well-known name on the list of starters. Numerous motorsport greats from past decades will also be doing the honors.
Former DTM stars such as Altfrid Heger in an Audi 200, Roland Asch in a Ford Sierra RS500, Kris Nissen in a BMW M3 DTM, Kurt Thiim in a BMW 635 Group A, Volker Schneider in a Ford Sierra RS500 and Jean-Pierre Zimmer in a Mercedes 190 EVO1 will be at the start.
Of course, we will also be there – with our DTM Kadett, our wheels and our tuning parts. And anyone who wants to get to know us better is cordially invited to come along – whether for technical questions, to marvel at the Kadett or simply for a cool drink or two and some nice petrol talk.
