The Story.
Two brothers on a motorcycle trip through France, half-joking about racing the 24h Nürburgring. Someone said 'what about a Twingo.' A test post pulled hundreds of sign-ups in a week. The joke was suddenly real.
Instagram went live, the first logo drawn in PowerPoint on a campsite. We bought a stock Twingo for €1,000 and a Clio donor for its engine. Tens of thousands followed before we'd turned a wheel in anger.
To race in 2026 we needed licences now. We got them in stock Twingos, then ran a street-legal BMW to bank points, driving it to the track on worn tyres and racing it home again.
While the Twingo was still being built, the BMW carried our colours into the NATC. First weekend out: four sprint wins, two endurance wins, zero DNFs.
The Twingo hit the Nordschleife for the first time, finished days earlier. 30 laps, zero mechanical failures. Then a Porsche ignored the rules and took us out, nearly ending the project. We rebuilt.
The Twingo's first competitive race, back where the BMW first won. It won. Twice. The community lost it, and the marshals were baffled in the best possible way.
The 24h organisers slammed the door on the funny little car nobody could classify. So we stopped chasing one race and went bigger: a brand that turns unexpected cars into race cars. We grew faster after.
Over 100,000 people along for the ride. The shop funds the racing. The community has become part of the team. And the next builds are already in the pipeline.
