With smooth, rollercoaster-like roads and heart-stopping jumps, it’s the rallying equivalent of an amusement park ride, but with serious stakes. What makes this year even more special is that TGR-WRT is racing on home turf—its HQ sits just three kilometers from the rally’s service park.

The new BMW M2 CS has just etched its name into Nürburgring history with a blistering lap time of 7:25.5, redefining what we can expect from compact performance cars. But this isn't just about lap times — it's about passion, precision, and the pure joy of driving.

A new compact king on the ‘Green Hell’

The Nürburgring-Nordschleife is no ordinary racetrack. Nicknamed the “Green Hell,” it’s a 12.9-mile stretch of asphalt revered (and feared) by racers across the world. On April 11, 2025, BMW M development engineer Jörg Weidinger tackled its 70+ turns with the M2 CS — and beat the existing compact car record by eight full seconds.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – September 23, 2025 – SHERIDAN, WYOMING – Sep. 23, 2025 – When it comes to sibling rivalry, few stories can rival the emotional horsepower behind BMW's 2001 American Le Mans Series (ALMS) campaign. On one side stood the established might of BMW Motorsport’s Team Schnitzer. On the other, BMW of North America’s scrappy but determined Prototype Technology Group (PTG). What unfolded was a turbocharged season of drama, grit, and—ultimately—vindication.

More Than Just a Race Car—It Was a Statement

In the late ‘90s, PTG dominated GT racing with the E36 M3, taking wins and titles, yet earning little respect from BMW headquarters in Munich. As former BMW NA executive Rich Brekus put it, “Paul Rosche thought we had a hick NASCAR team running our M3 program.” That slight became fuel.
