On Track Twice with the new GT3
When I was first coming of age as a "Car Guy" I loved the 996 GT3. To my eye it was the first 996 to look "right," and it was powered by that wonderful Mezger six. To a teenager, what could be cooler than a factory hot-rod 911? Since the early 2000s the GT3 has evolved dramatically, and has made itself a staple of performance car comparisons, and a …

Road Atlanta is a wonderful racetrack that takes you on a rollercoaster of a ride through the Georgia hills. Having said that, does the phrase “off camber, full throttle, downhill section of track” excite you or does it make you want to spectate? If you sit in the former camp, then Road Atltanta's turn-12 is for you (not that the other 11 turns …

Some Porsches are heady, brutal machines straight from the factory. Cars like the 911 GT2, or the 930 need to be taken by the scruff of the neck and shown who is boss. The Cayman, even track-focused variants like the GTS and GT4, tend to be much more benign. Thanks to their mid-engined layout and more modest powerplants the Cayman tends to be a …

Yammie Noob is a YouTube vlogger who creates and promotes content about riding motorcyles. He's popular enough that he's amassed over 138,000 subscribers in a very short period of time. Unfortunately, he also appears to be a bit reckless having suffered two, in my opinion, very avoidable crashes over what looks to be just a short 6-months. While …

As a long-term Cayenne owner I found the video below very interesting as it somewhat mirrors my experience. We bought our 2009 Cayenne in 2010. At the time it had 18,000 miles on it, came with the remainder of Porsche's factory warranty, and was CPO'd, as well. Since that time we've added over 140,000 miles for a grand total of 158k+ miles on the …

For those that have and lived to tell the story, you understand there is different math for every occasion. CarGuy math is very similar. Meet Sal, Jackie and Helga (their 1984 911 Carrera that had certain needs, at …

Early in the day of turbocharged racing Porsches, we began to see a lot more exhaust flames. We called them turbo fire, found them to be most dramatic during night races and much loved by photographers. Being at the right place on the track at the right time, knowing which of the cars was putting on the best show, and timing the shot to catch …
