Got to take part in a wonderful event where nearly 100 Porsche’s, mainly 996/986s, and one Corvette. Lots of fun. Some not to fun, but overall a great time that I’d be happy to do it again.

This was a fun 30 hours where I headed up to Good Vibes Breakfast Club and followed that up with a Porsche Club of America Autocross event at Storm Stadium in Lake Elsinore California. 2024 has been off to a good start and God willing, we’ll have some more exciting days coming very soon

It’s the Holiday Season. You want to buy yourself something cool, but you’re an adult now. What do you want? Well, naturally some fancy carbon fiber bits. Nothing says I have Dumb Money from my UA-cam success like spending thousands of my hard earned money on some parts that (in theory) should shed weight, add power and look great the whole time... so spend a few minutes listening to me and my ...

This year I was able to experience events outside of the track, but you know I have to share the wonderful things that happened on the track itself. They celebrated the 75th Anniversary of the Corvette so they had a special display and collection. There was also the usual collection of classic saloon race cars in addition to FIA and LeMans competitors. Stay until the end for a special treat.

That actually looks like a really nice course - will have to go next time.
Sounds goooood 996, 911💪🏻💪🏻👍🏻!!!
Definitely too big of a group to really go for a drive. Ideally 4/5 cars is optimum! Or spacing it out. At least you’re in a porker train 😎
To be fair, they really picked up the pace later on… but I’m with you. 4 cars max with people I trust not to do something stupid so we can move
Hey! just wanted to say thanks for making this video! I just bought an 05 Corolla XRS, and all I hear about it Moroso or 1zz pan, but both of those seem to have their down sides. Weird that no one mentions this solution online. Have you run your car hard since this install? how's it been holding up?
Thanks for watching the video. Check out my first start video and you’ll see that after all that, it still scraped. I ended up removing it and just running the. 1ZZ pan with the OEM baffle.
@@thetumanshow Ah damn! So maybe thats why no one mentions it hahaha. Did you run into any issues with the 1zz pan long term? People always bring up that the 2zz pan was designed without a baffle to get oil back to the pickup faster, but I dont hear if anyone actually runs into problems with the 1zz pan.
@@MoveQuick4nah 1ZZ with the baffle was good, I only tracked it once though before I sold it
Great video, I have an early build 996 myself (1/98 build). Amazing cars!
Wow that’s super early! Nice
Whats the exhaust setup?
I always get it mixed up, but it’s either a Gundo or Fister hack. Basically a modified stock exhaust.
@@thetumanshow and no x-pipe or anything else? Thought it would be more.
@@josedasilva9210nope, that’s it! I have something else that’s coming soon. Let’s see how that one ends up
Nice video, really digging that ducktail spoiler
Falling in love with your car is one of the most beautiful relationships an automobile enthusiast can have. 🏎️🫶
Really enjoyed that! Also a bucketlist track! Great job Simon! 😊🙌
Woo what fun it is to drive
My guy!!!!
I own a low mileage 996 C2 with aero kit. It’s low mileage and looked after. It also has the unusual red interior. If you treat them with respect they are a fantastic car, the flat six sounds amazing! A mixture of old and new worlds 😊
The 996 is literally the transition of old to new blending elements of both.
petrolicious please hire him🙏🙏
I love this! I have a 2/98 build early car with the 408 hollow spokes AND LSD!!! What a fabulous machine!
Beautiful!
Fantastic cars. Evwryone in real life knows this.
The car looks amazing. I love the strip and the Turbo Twist wheels. And those oranges on the front actually look much better than the new clear ones. 964's and 993's are so crazy expensive now that you couldn't even fully enjoy the cars even if you could afford them. I own a 996 4S and it's my everyday driver. It's so amazing value for money, it's not even funny.
Everyone says a 997 is the one but they feel more cheap inside and more disconnected to me. Unless you buy a GT3 , but then a 996 GT3 would still be the better choice IMO
Loved the video man! I’m glad it got it in my recommendations. I’m also a huge Porsche fan. That flat six sound is truly intoxicating. Does it have an aftermarket exhaust? Enjoy it, you’re basically driving my dream car haha
Glad you enjoyed it. I believe my exhaust has what’s called the Fister mod. I always get that and the Gundo hack mixed up. Basically a modified stock muffler though. Subscribe for more! Working on the Laguna Seca video now
Hello
@@JayDauglash hello
I like the idea of these cars for in town for sure, I also noticed the car has since been sold on Bring a Trailer, what influenced the sale of the car if you don’t mind me asking?
Hi Matt. Selling the car was a financial decision. We bought a house and I either needed to sell my 996, or this. And since I’m a dumb car guy, I sold the more sensible car in favor of the fun one. I miss it and still think I3s are great. For the city
@@thetumanshow Simon, life is short, I’ve made a few similar decisions and don’t look back with regret!
How do/did you like this, I just ordered for my E36 325i and I am hoping for some increased sound without the drone.
I really liked this muffler. Sound will be a little different for your M50 vs my M20 but should still sound nice
Literally no changes in sound. Zero. Lol
Sound video would be great
There was no before and after change from the OEM box, eventually I will dyno this setup but not the before or after I hoped
A like for the song and the car
I thought I saw a vette !!!!
Haha yea, a former 996 owner joined with his egg-yolk colored c5
8:50 😂
Accepting applications brother! Send it
Hey buddy!!!!!
Great Video Simon! Thanks for taking it! Spot on, hard to have too quick of a pace with that many cars. But we’re glad you had a great time! Those Gam Gam Burgers were amazing too, hopefully you got one! Hope you also enjoyed the art show! Did you get to see the VW Westfalia with the 996 engine and the 996 Turbo Brakes and Wheels? That thing was pretty awesome too!! Thanks for taking part in Fried Eggs & Jam, we hope to see u at the next one!!
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
What did you do to square up the tire? What rim are you using?
The fronts are 5" wide and rear are 5.5" so I got a set of rears, and got a 175 tire on all 4 corners. You can then rotate the wheels/ tires and make them last longer too
What rim are you using?
With regards to horsepower - Porsche seem to do more with less!
NorCal doesn't like 996 as they feel much more smug
Just have to find the owners and get them together.
I need to do this in Charleston SC!
It’s definitely a fun gathering , add in some fun roads split into 2 groups and it will be fun for all
We have a local group that will put on cruise/rally but it takes a hour or two on the highway before any fun roads and I don't need to be doing 15-20 mph over on the highway. I'm a slow goer cruiser. Maybe it'd be different on those fun roads you have.
I don’t really need to be part of group of Porsches speeding on a freeway, but give us a fun canyon road and let’s go
What kind of power are you getting from the car? 90’s hp? Did you do any engine upgrades?
Entertaining video. Owned a 1750 Guilia .. Liked it.. although the Trans was Trash and Steering was too heavy. My subsequent 89 Civic SI genuinely outclassed it in every possible way ... beyond "style" Just a reality dose..
I recently picked up a GoPro "Chin Mount" and the added view of seeing my hands going crazy added something to my autocross clips. Looked like a good group to run with.
Great job! Autocross looks like a blast.
I love how the hood is blue, did you do that yourself? Is it a wrap ?
I had it color matched along with the mirror colors. I wanted to get it wrapped but it would never match right
@@thetumanshow ahh.. gotcha... thanks for the answer...
Does it improve in cabin sound like the K&N?
No induction noise changes, perhaps a nod to Porsches good OEM design
sweet. i have the same ali block m52b28 and was wondering if i should make the switch to s52 cams. havent dynoed mine yet just running a kassel performance tune.
I've got two !!!!! Make my own crown wheel and pinion sets at 10/35 . Uprate the power by 30 BHP and redo interior in leather and Alcantara . Man are these good cars
Nice work Fritz! Mine was lots of fun when I combined its good handling with the CARABINIERI stickers and blue light
@@thetumanshow awesome. Great job
10/35? Wow that's long!
@@andrekardol it's what the factory should have offered . Totally transforms the car into a modern performer . No more 3500 at 7mph , say hello to 2900.
1400cc of fury!
i3 is such a great little car. Awesome as a daily runner and pennies on the dollar to drive !😎
From seeing the two cars in front of you, looks like on turn1 and a turn about half track, they took a much wider line and you went shallow. Did you ever try that wider line into those turns?
Nice video, I do have a question, on top of the quarter panel there is a rubber triming between the hardtop and the quarter panel, does this come out easily once all the screws are out? I have a soft top need clarification before pulling the panel. I will be working on the passenger side which is easier. Thanks for the video very informative.
is this video about you or the car?
Okay, serious question here; How did you keep your hair so perfect while working on and under the vehicle? 😆
Looking at 2017’s and up right now. Trying to decide should I go Rex or Bev my commute to work is about 12 miles round trip and I have almost everything near me in 15 mile radius but also wouldn’t mind having extra range unless if it comes with issues
All depends on your access to a charging network. Having one at home and work covers ~80% of your driving, it only can be a challenge with the BEV if you want to go on longer drives. I love the REx but a BEV wouldn’t be bad either
