The finale for the DMV Touring Car Challenge took place at Hockenheim this weekend. RS Tuning again performed well with their pair of Audi R8 LMS ultra cars.
Originally three Audi R8 LMS ultra cars were included on the provisional
entry list, as YACO Racing had entered their R8 LMS ultra, along with RS Tuning’s
two cars. However, YACO Racing did not take part this weekend.
RS Tuning again entrusted their two cars to their drivers: Dietmar Haggenmüller (#8) and Suzanne Weidt (#88). Both cars have competed in the full 2013 Audi R8 LMS ultra specification during the 2013 DMV TCC and AvD 100 Meilen seasons, the full specification with the addition of the original 2013 rear diffuser.
Qualifying for the first race yielded two class top ten results for the Audis,
as Weidt qualified seventh in class followed by Haggenmüller in eighth. The grid
for race two saw Haggenmüller fifth in class and Weidt was seventh again.
The first race on Saturday concluded with the Audis finishing in their class starting positions, with Weidt seventh ahead of Haggenmüller in eighth, both finishing nineteenth and twentieth overall respectively. The second race marked the final race of the 2013 DMV TCC season. Haggenmüller finished the race by placing sixth in class and ninth overall. He was followed by his teammate in thirteenth overall, taking eighth in class.
This Hockenheim weekend concluded the 2013 DMV TCC season, which saw the participation of a number of Audi vehicles, including Audi R8 LMS ultra cars from RS Tuning and Prosperia C.ABT Racing.
