I have a funny feeling that the telemetry software VRS requires you to install may do a little more than advertised. If I get the time or someone else sees this and wants to take a look at doing some dynamic or static analysis on their telemetry program to see if they call back to any weird domains or have weird behavior, it may be good to document it and add it in a separate incident section. If you are to do this, make sure things are documented really well with lots of pictures and replication steps because doing something like that is original and doesn't come from another website.

I found the telemetry software by going to https://vrs.racing/academy, then clicking create account (you dont need to create one) then click download under the telemetrylogger and you should get the setup executable .exe -->
