The NGK RaciNGK team is gearing up for the start of the new 2016 German VLN endurance season after enjoying a highly successful debut season last year.

Again in 2016, our VLN racing car features spark plugs and sensors from NGK and NTK and puts them through the ultimate test. With each new race, our products demonstrate their technological performance under maximum competitive pressure.”
