Double victory in the second round of the NLS - successful start with the Max Kruse Racing Team
In qualifying, the number 10 car set a new lap record for TCR cars on the Nürburgring Nordschleife with a time of 8:40.1 minutes.
After the first round of the Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) on 28 March had to be canceled due to snowfall, it finally started this Sunday (17 April) with the second round of the NLS for the Max Kruse Racing Team. And how! The two VW Golf GTI TCR equipped with PROTRACK ONE motorsport wheels not only occupied the first row of the grid in their SP3T class after the qualifying in the morning, but were also able to record a direct double victory in the 4-hour race in the afternoon.

Knurled tire contact surface on the rim shoulder of the PROTRACK ONE prevents the tire from twisting unintentionally on the rim
Even though the circuit courses in Europe opened a little later this year due to the Corona situation, those of you with petrol in your blood will naturally be drawn to the circuits. Especially with the high loads during longitudinal and lateral acceleration, tires start to spin unintentionally on the rim. The resulting dynamic imbalance not only leads to unwanted vibrations and increased wear, but also to poorer handling and longer braking distances.
In order to prevent rotation between rim and tire, we deliver all motorsport and road wheels of the type ONE from the production period 11/2019 onwards with knurled contact surfaces on the rim shoulder.
The 5 mm wide knurling RAA according to DIN 82 is intended to prevent the tire from twisting on the rim. The procedure is used as standard on all PROTRACK ONE wheels from production date 11/2019New application list + tracktool special
We have updated our application list so that, thanks to the latest data from the German Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA), most currently available wheel/vehicle combinations are clearly listed with part certificates.
But also for friends of sporty vehicles and tracktool lovers we have many wheels in our program, which in combination with strength certificates and individual acceptance make your own vehicle something very special. For the most common combinations we have created a Tracktool Special, which lists some vehicles and combinations. The Tracktool Special is constantly being expanded by us.
And very up-to-date: According to a decision of the Bundesrat (upper house of parliament) the single acceptance according to §21 StVZO can be carried out nationwide by all testing organisations since 22.03.2019.
