Tuning World Bodensee cancelled!
Unfortunately, the Tuning World Bodensee has been cancelled, due to the Corona virus.
Therefore, our Esports Event also cannot take place there.
We are very sorry for this, since we were looking forward to a great event, but unfortunately it is out of our control.
– The German RaceRoom Championship will continue as planned. All online races and streams will continue. The final races will be held online on 1. May. The prize money will be paid out. The two onsite-qualifiers in the RaceRoom Cafés at Böblingen and Nürburgring will also continue. Each café will host their own final (information on the dates will be announced by the locations), and pay out 50% of the café prize money.
– The ADAC GT Masters Esports Championship will continue as planned. More detailed information about the schedule will follow in due time.
– The Endurance Team Challenge (4h race) is cancelled. We will try our best to host another 4h race in the future.
The location – A paradise for car enthusiasts
The Tuning World Bodensee is one of the biggest exhibitions for car enthusiasts in Germany. You will experience 3 days of action in the south of Germany, right near the Alps and the border to Austria and Switzerland. Over 1000 cars are on display, from dynamic high performance sportscars to the most extremely modified, tuned vehicles. In addition, there will be several shows, for example drift shows. From what we heard, there will also be quite some beautiful girls – either way: Over 100.000 visitors each year can’t be wrong.
Make sure to check out the Tuning World Bodensee Website to find out more!
Championships and Format – Four in one!
What if there is not just one event, or two, but four events in one? Read up on some of the stuff that is coming up at the Tuning World Bodensee this year, and how you can get there.
Secure your place on the stage before the event already!
- You can qualify online, or in the RaceRoom Cafés, for a place on the grid! Start your RaceRoom and get ready!
A race for everyone
- There are plenty of opportunities to secure your place in the final. Our German Championship will feature races for drivers with A, B, C and D leaderboard rank, while in the team race, there will be a Trophy for semi-pro and amateur teams. And competing with your teammates on a big stage, sitting right next to your competitors, is certainly a feeling you do not want to miss!
Become the star of the show… or simply enjoy watching it!
- We will put together a big stage once again in the Esports Arena, directly at the Tuning World Bodensee. There will be live commentary, a live stream and a spectator area with a big screen at the event!
Experience high end simulators
- There will be a simulator park, with high end TrackTime simulators with Ascher steering wheels, where you can try it out and drive for fun – free of charge!
Take a look at what is planned:
RaceRoom Tuning Club Challenge – Thursday 30. April
Tuning Clubs throughout Germany and Europe have made the Tuning World Bodensee what it is today, with their enthusiasm and passion for cars! But are the tuners fast in the simulator? Which club has the best RaceRoom drivers?
A team race on Hockenheim, exclusive for Tuning Club members, will answer this question. Certainly a race to watch – the atmosphere and enthusiasm on the grandstands was a highlight last year!
Deutsche RaceRoom Meisterschaft – Friday 1st May
A championship only for RaceRoom drivers from Germany, and a brand new format that allows drivers from every skill level to compete in a high-class tournament.
Drivers with A, B, C and D license will participate in the final, each in their own class and each with a different car. In addition, you can qualify in the RaceRoom Cafés in Böblingen (Region Stuttgart) and Nürburgring for another race in the final.
A total prizepool of 5000 € and several thousand vRP are on offer, split over all divisions!
Info on the Café qualifiers follow on March 5th.
Endurance Team Challenge – Saturday 2nd May
Like in the past year, we will host a team endurance event, with the focus on teamplay, driver swaps and strategy. 24 teams will compete on the legendary virtual Nordschleife!
Do you want to join? You can register your team here – it’s free! If we have more than 24 team entries, the combined leaderboard times of all 3 drivers are the deciding factor. So if you want to have a safe place in the final, get your laptimes in as soon as possible! We also have a special Trophy for amateur and semi-pro teams this year! 5000 € prize money are on offer for the overall classification, while Trophy teams can compete for their own custom livery in RaceRoom and thousands of vRP!
ADAC GT Masters Esports Championship – Sunday 3rd May
The ADAC GT Masters Esports Championship has its biggest season yet, with prizes worth 80,000 €, 5 LAN events and battles of the best simracers on the planet.
The second race of the season will take place at the Tuning World Bodensee, and the drivers will race at Autodrom Most!
