...learn something new every day, didn't know that's what their home-base motorsports center was called.

It’s more of a place or location than a name, the Development Center in Weissach is so vast that it encompasses almost all of the town of Weissach and most of the county. The Motorsport Center is in the back of the complex, closer to the town of Flacht, it’s a German thing about the pride of manufacturing etc.

You see it on the back of more than a few factory race cars
