Pikes Peak 2012 Audi RS5 Teaser Released

Audi seems to have been preparing a surprise for us, as the automotive producer recently used social media to release a Pikes Peak related teaser image, that shows a two paint job Audi RS5. The car maker only released the one image, without offering any details. However, we’re expecting Audi to give us some extra details over the next few days as the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is scheduled to run this upcoming Sunday, August 12th.

Walter Rohl had planned to return to Pikes Peak behind the wheel of the the original Pikes Peak Audi Sport Quattro S1, but unfortunately the postponement date due to the Waldo Canyon Fires did not work into his schedule.  The original Audi that Rohl set a Pikes Peak record 25 years ago, and now that Pikes Peak is completely paved – Rohl’s record will remain in the history books forever.

My Life at Speed Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer, Chris Nazarenus, had a chance meeting with key executives at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 1998. It would be the "Jerry McGuire" moment that would change her life forever. Although she knew nothing about motorsports at that time, the chance meeting would influence her passion for all things fast, great stories and interesting people. That's what you will find here at My Life at Speed.
