Bimmerworld Racing

Bimmerworld Racing is a sports car racing team and supplier of racing, performance, and replacement parts based in Dublin, Virginia, USA. The company focuses on the BMW brand of automobiles with a strong emphasis on road racing. The team first began racing professionally in the sprint-format SCCA World Challenge series before switching to the endurance-based IMSA/Grand-Am Sports Car Challenge. The company races at all levels of motorsport and is an enthusiastic supporter of club and grassroots racing. The company was instrumental in introducing the popular SpecE46 racing series. The team has also diversified into other forms of motorsport including NASA, BMW CCA Club Racing, SCCA, SpecE30, The One Lap of America, Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, ChampCar, VLN, and PowerWheels Attack. The team and parts company is independently owned by founder James Clay.

As a BMW specialist the team's race cars consist of BMW automobiles. Some of the cars the team has used over the years include: E36 325i/328i, E36 M3, E46 325i, E46 330i, E46 M3, E90 325i/328i, E92 335i, E92 M3, F30 328i, F22 M235i Racing, and F82 M4 GT4. The team won the 2018 Street Tuner Drivers Championship[1] with Devin Jones and NIck Galante driving a F30 328i. In 2019 the team runs two pro-racing efforts: a pair of M4 GT4 cars for the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge and two M240i Racing models in the Blancpain World Challenge Touring Car series. Drivers are James Clay, Devin Jones, Cameron Evans, Chandler Hull, Aurora Straus, Kaz Grala, Seth Thomas, and Ari Balogh. The cars are sponsored by OPTIMA Batteries, Veristor, CoPart, Red Line Oil, Eibach Springs, Performance Friction Brakes, MagnaFlow Exhaust, and BMW of North America. The team also runs the livery of The Race to End Alzheimer's, a charity raising money and awareness for Alzheimer's disease. In addition to their pro racing efforts, the team builds BMWs race cars for customers on a regular basis.

The team also operates a thriving parts business, selling a vast catalog of original replacement parts, trim and accessories, performance upgrades, racing equipment, software, and wheels. BimmerWorld designs and manufactures their own parts, including wheels, exhausts, software, aerodynamic pieces, and suspension components. The parts company is based in the same Dublin, Virginia location as the race team and operates from three facilities totaling 35,000 sq ft. The BimmerWorld website also features information and tech articles for the benefit of the BMW enthusiast community.
