Porsche Motorsport North America Technical Support Partner
This year we are excited to announce our support for the 99th running of the Pike Peak Hill Climb! Together with all of our partners, M-Engineering is supporting 8 cars this year under the Porsche banner! Along with Porsche Motorsport North America, our technical support partner, we will be supporting the entire Porsche Pikes Peak Trophy sponsored by Yokohama Wheel USA class of 5 cars!
Also we are exited to share that we have been testing and will be supporting the fastest driver to ever climb the mountain, Romain Dumas, and his car prepared and ran by Champion Motorsport. This GT2 RS Clubsport will be running up the mountain in the Time Attach 1 class.
To round out the list of cars we are supporting, we are working with BBI Autosport to help get "Lucy", the current TA1 record holder and "Sunny" the GT2 RS Clubsport up the mountain! These cars have both been prepared by BBI Autosport and are driven by Raph Asteir and David Donohue!

What a week at Pikes Peak International Hill Climb! Honored to be a part in taking home two class wins, 2nd, 5th, & 8th overall, three podiums, and the privilege to work alongside Porsche Motorsport North America and Yokohama Tire.
Huge congrats to Champion Motorsport and Romain Dumas for placing second overall and beating out a standup squad and OEM backed Bentley team to take 1st in the Time Attack 1 class. Amazing effort from the whole team at Champion to pick up a class win on their first ever attempt up the mountain.
Congratulations to BBi Autosport and Raph Astier for taking home 1st place in the Pikes Peak Open class, Lucy returned bigger and better than ever! The MoTeC firmware and INS provided by Sander Marques worked flawlessly!
Congrats to BBi Autosport and David Donohue for placing 8th overall and 3rd in class after having a wet start only to lay down the 2nd best 3rd sector time of the day!
And last but not least, It was an absolute joy to work alongside all of the Porsche GT4 competitors with Porsche Motorsport North America, Erik Skirmants, and Jeff Zwart. Congrats to Tanner Foust for taking down the win!
Thus wraps up this years Pikes Peak, our busiest yet! Plans for the 100th running are already in the works with multiple teams!
