Roger Kurzen is a competitive amateur who raced in endurance motorsport at the Nürburgring between 2011 and 2019. He competed in multiclass endurance championships where graded professionals and semi-professionals shared the grid with amateurs, driving shared-cockpit cars in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie across multiple production and one-make cup classes and the Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport in the Nürburgring 24 Hours. His primary team was BLACK FALCON Team TMD Friction.[1]
Over seven seasons Kurzen made twelve starts, earning one podium finish at the Nürburgring 24 Hours in 2019.
