H&R becomes latest ADAC GT Masters partner

• Collaboration between ADAC GT Masters and H&R in place since Sachsenring
• Sauerland-based company specialising in chassis components

Munich: With effect from the most recent race weekend at the Sachsenring, the ADAC GT Masters has entered into yet another mutually beneficial partnership. The Super Sports Car League and suspension specialists H&R are now working in close cooperation. The company based in Lennestadt (Sauerland) supplies products for series production vehicles as well as racing cars. Motorsport teams whose vehicles have been equipped with H&R race springs and suspension systems have already enjoyed global success in the full gamut of racing formats - touring cars, rally, single-seater and sports cars. The H&R logo will feature in various locations, including onboard advertising on the ADAC GT Masters supercars and on official stationery.

Heinz Remmen, CEO at H&R Spezialfedern GmbH, is proud to be the latest recruit to the ADAC GT Masters partnership scheme: "We've been a development partner for several years now to various manufacturers in GT sports. The ADAC GT Masters races are the ideal platform for us to flag that relationship up to motorsport fans."

ADAC Director of Motorsport and Classic Motoring Lars Soutschka is equally delighted by the new partnership: "Welcome to the ADAC GT Masters! The suspension specialists at H&R are well known on the automotive scene, not only in the series production car segment, but also in motorsport. We look forward to a long-term partnership."

About H&R

The secret of success for H&R has been the technology transfer from international motor racing to the development of innovative suspension components for standard vehicles. In the sporting arena, the testing of new materials and production technologies can take place at an accelerated rate. The experience gained in racing flows directly into the development and production of springs, shock absorbers, stabilisers and wheel spacers, as well as sports and coilover suspensions for road-going vehicles. The 'Made by H&R' stamp on chassis components is guaranteed to elicit approval from the international trade press and customers around the world. One of the many strengths of H&R is flexibility. Only in this way can optimum solutions be provided for the multiple requirements of motorsport in the development of prototypes and in the design of customer-specific solutions.
