Munich. After celebrating a successful start to the 2020
season last weekend, the Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) now has
more good news from the Nordschleife (GER). As of the next event of
this season, to be held as a double header on 11th and
12th July, teams can contest the ‘BMW M2 CS Racing VLN class’.
The category is for the new entry-level model in the BMW
M Customer Racing programme, the BMW M2 CS Racing. In addition to the
BMW M240i Racing Cup, in which the predecessor, the BMW M240i Racing,
competes, this is the second BMW-only class in the Nürburgring
Endurance Series.
With the BMW M2 CS Racing, BMW M
Customer Racing continues the tradition of production-based customer
racing cars. Like the BMW M235i Racing and the BMW M240i Racing, the
latest addition to the BMW M Customer Racing product portfolio enables
ambitious teams and drivers to break into racing.
The
first appearances under race conditions in last year’s NLS season came
after initial test runs at Miramas (FRA) and Portimão (POR). At the
2020 opener last weekend, the BMW M2 CS Racing also made its first
appearance for a customer. The Walkenhorst Motorsport car crossed the
finish line second in the SP8T class.
