[iDevice Link] <— 791,069 views In this video you will see Michele Mouton setting a new record on The 1985 Pikes Peak International Hillclimb in her factory sponsored Group B, Audi Sport quattro S1 with a time of 11:25.39. She was not only the fastest overall in 1985, but also set a record which still remains unbeaten to this day by a female driver. Just another movie for those of you who don't understand the difference between 4 wheel drive... and quattro.

Your Welcome, Hydle

Thank You from NIMBUS INDEPENDENT on Vimeo.

Thank You is exactly what the title states; a thank you to everyone who watches Nimbus.

Thank You begins by interviewing individuals from every walk of life about how they predict the winter. The movie then recaps the best of the last three years of Nimbus. Enjoy!

Nimbus Independent was started in 2007 by Eric Pollard in collaboration with Pep Fujas, Andy Mahre, and Chris Bencheter. The four like minded skiers began Nimbus to bring a different perspective to the world of ski movies.

New Audi R18 Racer Revealed

Tick your company car box with ‘Audi’ and ‘diesel’, and you’d expect an A4 with 2.0-litre four-pot, right? Not so Allan McNish. The two-time Le Mans 24hr winner and Audi Motorsport driver has just taken delivery of his new company car, the Audi R18.

The R18 is the first ‘closed roof’ Le Mans racer run by the Audi factory team and features a 3.7-litre V6 TDI (down from last season’s 5.5-litre V10 diesel) coupled to a six-speed box. The one-piece body allows for greater weight savings, while the chassis and aerodynamics were developed using previous ‘R’ models.

Interestingly, this R18 has also been designed for ‘progressive electrification’ as long as “it provides a true advantage”. Don’t forget, Audi has won the Le Mans 24hrs a staggering nine times from 12 attempts.

The R18 will make its debut next year for an official test on 24 April ready for the race in June. For now, take a moment to ogle its rather delectable shape.
