Porsches and BBS have a history together like no other. And personally, we’re big fans of both companies. The two just tend to look “right” together. And none more right than a GT3 on E88s. Therein lies the problem. The 991 GT3 runs center lock hubs and BBS Motorsport does not (or did not at […]

We’ve completed our first season with the 991 GT3 platform. The car has covered 5,600 miles, of which ~3,100 miles have been spent terrorizing PCA track days across the midwest. The car has seen four chassis setup changes, three sets of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s, and two sets of OEM brake pads. The biggest […]

We brought three cars out to this year’s Rennsport Reunion – 991 GT3, 996 GT3, and 1987 930. What an experience. Instead of just visiting the event at Laguna Seca in Monterey, CA, we decided it would be best do take a road trip! Just prior to Rennsport, Magnus Walker was in town to party […]

Mid-summer heat and that flat six Koolaid. A good mix. We brought three of our 311RS Porsche units up to BIR for a mid-summer evaluation. We’d been driving them for a few months now, it’s time to see how much they’d improved since we were last here in April. For our 981 Cayman S development unit, […]

Three track days complete, baselines logged, it’s time we get to dialing this thing in. The essentials – caliper studs and solid suspension bushings to keep things tight. A 50lb. weight reduction comes by way of a titanium Akrapovic Evolution Race exhaust system. Manufacturer claims ~25hp gain  Akrapovic titanium tip powder coated black. They’ll never […]

We debuted our 2015 model at the Twin Cities Auto Show. Spec Blew is the most direct link to the car that started it all for 311RS, Ryan’s personal 2008 Time Attack Evo X, which at this point is affectionately known as “ol’ Blew”… In that time we’ve taken Spec Blew from concept to reality […]

Our transition to Porsche cannot be limited to the 991 GT3. As special as it is, Porsche’s 981 Cayman is in some ways equally special. As special as a 991 GT3? Not literally. But it’s mid-engine platform, stiff chassis, and low cost of entry makes a case for a special Porsche. The 981 platform has all the […]

How do you improve one of the world’s best sports cars? And who are we to think we can? We did the only thing we know how to do – take it to the track. The first opportunity to get the 991 GT3 on track was for PCA’s First Fling at Brainerd International Raceway earlier […]

The inevitable evolution of the 311RS Program has begun. 2015 marks the last year of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution as we know it. Twenty three years strong, the Evolution has truly evolved into what has become the ultimate Evo. The tenth-generation of the Lancer Evolution arrived in 2008, and as with each Evo before it, […]

The classic Porsche 930 Turbo.  The car was built in 1987, coincidentally the same year I was born. I’m not particularly sentimental but that is just cool. When I bought the car it had 49,150mi on it. Since then I’ve put 6,000mi on it and enjoyed every single one of those miles. Service records show […]
