Legendary vehicles and genuine motorsport spirit return to the Nordschleife: as part of the ADAC 1000km 2026, a pure touring car race for vehicles from 1962 to 1975 will be held again for the first time – as a tribute to one of the most spectacular eras in motorsport.
Advance ticket sales have begun: from 18 to 20 September 2026, the ADAC 1000 km race weekend will bring historic motorsport back to the Nürburgring and Nordschleife. Two three-hour DHLM races, the Golden Era touring cars on the full circuit and the Touring Car Grand Prix. A must-see event for motorsport fans.
For organisational reasons, the originally planned 1000 km final of the DHLM 2026 has been adjusted. As one race of the season in July has been cancelled, races 3 and 4 will be held as a double-header as part of the ADAC 1000 km race weekend – each as a 3-hour race.
With iconic Porsche racing cars and one of the most spectacular chapters in Le Mans history, Kremer Racing made a strong statement at the prototype revival of the ADAC 1000 km race in 2025 – impressively reviving the heyday of Porsche sports prototypes on the Nordschleife.
Legendary sports prototypes, iconic Group 5 racing cars and genuine Nordschleife feeling: historic motorsport celebrated a highly acclaimed comeback at the ADAC 1000 km race – emotional, down-to-earth and with an eye to the future.
