About Dirk Adorf

  • Dirk Adorf, (born July 10, 1969 in Altenkirchen, Rhineland-Palatinate) is a German race car driver.
  • Starting with small cars, he won the Nürburgring VLN German Endurance Trophy in 1992, 1996 and 1997.
  • This earned him drives in the German Super Tourenwagen Cup (STW) during 1995.
  • He would return to the STW in 1999, this time with Opel.
  • After three seasons in the 2000cc touring car series, he moved to V8Star Series in 2002.
  • His last competition there was in 2003, when he drove two races in V8Star.
  • After the series folded, his team took the big Jaguar-bodied V8Star to the Nürburgring VLN endurance series, and after successfully adopting the car, they won a race in 2003, together with Hermann Tilke. For 2004, her moved to the team Raeder, winning some more races.
  • Later, he decided to enter a Lamborghini Gallardo, but with little success as the car remained unreliable, such as at the 2009 24 Hours Nürburgring.
  • The team then acquired a FIA GT3-spec Ford GT from Matech, with which Adorf surprisingly set pole for the 24h race, against strong competition.
