Wolfgang Kudrass
Wolfgang Kudrass (born November 21st, 1954 in Lohmar, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) is a German racing driver.
A specialist on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, Kudrass won the VLN Endurance series in 1979 and continues to race in the series to this day.
In 1988, Kudrass took part in the three German rounds of the new World Touring Car Masters series with the Haribo Racing Team in a Renault 5. Kudrass finished the season second in Class D, having taken wins in every round he entered - only being beaten by East German Andrea Geisler due to her entering more rounds.
Kudrass entered more races in 1989, this time with the Volkswagen Dealers Racing team alongside Helmut Maier. Once again Kudrass finished the season second in class, this time being beaten by Maier who took on all but one races all year.
1990 saw Kudrass become a Volkswagen works driver, with the manufacturer entering four cars for their assault on Class D. Volkswagen drafted in Massimo Sigala and Jorg van Ommen to accompany Kudrass and Maier, with Opel also joining the series with a full set of high-caliber drivers in Class D.
