We are big fans of cool stuff here in The Garage, especially when said cool stuff combines cars and the web. How about a web application that scoops race feeds from Le Mans and puts all the race and team data into a slick package for all to see.
Thomas Baekdal isn’t a car guy per se, he just loves Le Mans. Really there isn’t much more to explain, except that Thomas wants to know every tiny detail of the race as it goes on. So he took his big brain and put all the info published by the Le Mans organizers into a slick interface that fans the world over would love to see. There is only one problem. They can’t! Due to licensing issues, Baekdal has to keep his cool new tool all to himself! Unless that is, the organizers decide to use his application to share their race with the world.
So endurance race organizers, give this guy a shout. He’ll gladly help increase the value of your brand!
