The car was originally the brainchild of Roland Mayer at Audi tuner MTM and he'd pushed to get the car launched under the brand name GMG... presumably two of those letters standing for Gumpert and Mayer.

Contour closes Seattle HQ, shocks employees — execs mum on status of GoPro rival - GeekWire

We really hope Contour makes a comeback. We love both Contour and GoPro, and use both on our race car as each one performs better in certain conditions making it really nice having access to both. Hope to see these back on the market soon

We had an incident about an hour in to the race. Bent the tie rod pretty bad and spent time in the pits getting the tie rod almost straight! Tried to go back out for two laps, but the ball joint was not having it. We did everything we could, but it wasn't safe to try and push it. Bummed not to finish! Thanks to Jim and Neil for all your help trying to get back out there. It's racing!

Excited to have some spectators watching the start of this six hour enduro. Valentin is in the car... Good luck!

Anyone else's dog refuse to leave the truck before a trip in fear of being forgotten?

House smells like fresh tires :-) Any recommendations on tire shops near Miller Motorsports Park to get these mounted when we get there?

Who else is watching the Pirelli World Challenge Championships live streaming this weekend?

Great deal on some rally tires, $139 a piece, get them while they have them

Trying to move remaining 15" Black Rocket tires to make room for more. The remaining BR22, BR33 and BR44 tires are now $139 each until gone.

Lets shoot to get some motorsports on here, eh?? Check out www.vanderkitten.com and support the other female athletes!

Looks like the team found the third driver for the race at Miller next month. Does anyone have a spare helmet and HANS?
