history
Torsten Schubert took part in national autocross competitions from 1982 and became runner-up in the GDR in 1985. From 1996 he took part in the European Autocross Championship and was runner-up the following year. After finishing third in 1998, Schubert won the European Championship in 1999.
Schubert then entered the German Touring Car Challenge and contested a full season with his teammates Thomas Schiemann and Detlef Linke from 2000 onwards. After the season, Schubert retired from motorsport as a driver and from then on used professional drivers. His driver Markus Gedlich already won the championship in 2001. In the 2002 DTC season, Claudia Hürtgen achieved two wins and was third in the overall standings. Franz Engstler came third in the “ Guia Race ” in Macau .
In 2003 Schubert Motorsport worked together with " Carly Motors " and entered two vehicles each in the German Touring Car Challenge and in the European Touring Car Championship . Claudia Hürtgen achieved overall victory in the championship and Donald Molenaar came fourth. The team classification also went to Schubert Motorsport. In the European Touring Car Championship, Duncan Huisman won the private drivers' championship and was seventh overall. Tom Coronel took second place behind Huisman. In 2004 Claudia Hürtgen defended her title in the new "DMSB Production Car Championship", the DTC's successor series.
The following year, Hürtgen won the BFGoodrich long distance championship when she participated for the first time . From 2006 new BMW 120d were used, which won the class in all nine races. At the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring , the team achieved fifth place in the overall standings and the class win in the diesel vehicles . In guest appearances in the ADAC Procar series, the former DMSB production car championship, Claudia Hürtgen won two races in Oschersleben in an old BMW 320i and Marc Hennerici two races in a BMW 120d.
From 2007 a BMW Z4 M Coupé was also used in the BFGoodrich endurance championship . The drivers Hans-Joachim Stuck , Johannes Stuck , Claudia Hürtgen and Richard Göransson achieved class victory in the SP6 and fifth place in the overall standings in the 24-hour race. Stian Sørlie and Jörg Viebahn finished fourth in the overall ranking of the endurance championship at the Nürburgring in their BMW 120d.
In the 2008 24-hour race, the BMW Z4 M Coupé led the race for a long time until it was knocked out during the night due to a rollover by Norwegian Stian Sørlie. The 2009 24-hour race was similar for the Z4, at around 9 p.m. a major engine failure in the Hohe Acht area abruptly ended the journey. On the other hand, the three BMW 320d, which achieved a double victory in the diesel class up to two liters, were very successful and the first-placed BMW 320d finished the race in 25th overall position.
The 2010 24-hour race at the Nürburgring was more successful: Schubert Motorsport secured fourth place overall with the new BMW Z4 GT3 . The second BMW Z4 GT3 entered had an early take-off.
In January 2011 Schubert Motorsport achieved victory in the Dubai 24 Hours with a Z4 GT3. In the 2015 ADAC GT Masters season, Torsten Schubert's team won the team championship. In addition, they secured second place with Dominik Baumann and third place with Jens Klingmann in the drivers' standings.
