Team Lambo-Racing scored its first ever class victory with the worlds first Lamborghini Gallardo GTR during the 10th round of the Nürburgring Endurance Championship VLN. It was an eventful four hour race in front of 23,000 spectators, and in the end the car was the first one of its class to arrive at the finish.
"We are really happy about this early success which was possible because of the car´s reliability" , said driver Stephan Rösler right after the race.


The weather & track conditions in the Eifel were tricky all weekend, especially for the Lamborghini which has no ABS. The race started with a spin during the first lap and progressed with a strong and trouble-free run which was rewarded with the 18th position overall.
"We could have driven faster in the rain with ABS and we were held up by slower cars after the spin. So we could have had an even higher overall position with a little more luck" ,
thinks driver Andreas Kitzerow. However, the retirement of the strongest class rival, the Dodge Viper, meant the first ever class victory for the team.
"It took us some seconds to realize the Viper had been retired and to realize we really won our class" , Kitzerow continues.



After two very successful first races in 2005, the team is looking forward into the next season:"We can evaluate this two results in a realistic way, the winter will give us time to work on the car and improve it even more."
