Dirk Müller finished second this season in the GT2 class driving a Ferrari F430 but Müller’s involvement with BMW goes back to 2002 when he debuted for Team Schnitzer in the European Touring Car Championship. Müller’s European touring car career with Schnitzer ended after the 2006 WTCC season. The 2005 vice-champion will probably not feel too uncomfortable in a BMW M3 as he’s won the 24 Hours of Nürburgring in one.

Tom Milner raced for the Panoz GT2 team in ALMS this year but did run the Rahal Letterman Racing Aston Martin DB9 in the Speed World Challenge GT championship.

The two drivers will join Bill Auberlen and Joey Hand at the team.

“With the high level of competition already established in the ALMS GT2 class, the BMW Rahal Letterman Racing Team is moving into a very fast lane,” said Martin Birkmann, BMW of North America Motorsports Manager. “Previous BMW M3 and ALMS GT racing experience were critical parameters in our driver selection process. The addition of Tommy Milner and Dirk Müller to Bill Auberlen and Joey Hand gives us a highly qualified driver lineup.”
