Full Throttle Talk

Ferraris are breaking records at Mecum.
Porsche fans are arguing about soul vs. specs.
And Magnus Walker is sending 150 items — including multiple Porsches — to an upcoming RM Sotheby’s auction.

Coincidence, or a signal?

This episode of Full Throttle Talk digs into what these stories really mean for modern car culture, collectors, and enthusiasts who still care about driving more than resale.

Is Porsche drifting — or simply evolving?
And what does Magnus’s auction move really say about where the brand and the culture are headed?

We break it down with real-world perspective, not hype.

Project cars promise everything and often deliver regret.

In this episode of Full Throttle Talk, they break down real-world project car mistakes, market timing failures, and the truth behind a $301K 1973 Porsche 911 RS Touring auction that did not meet expectations.

From personal Porsche project stories to listener questions on values, restorations, and the 2026 collector car market, this episode explores what actually happens when passion meets reality.

Full Throttle Talk is built for enthusiasts who care about ownership, not hype.

A street-legal formula car sounds like internet nonsense.
Until you meet Caleb Borgstrom.

In this episode of Full Throttle Talk, Tim Harris sits down with one of the founders of RYN Motors to tear apart one of the most unreasonable automotive ideas in years — and why it might actually work.

This isn’t a concept render.
This isn’t a YouTube kit car.
This is a real, engineered, road-registrable, formula-style machine built by someone who got tired of being told, “That’s impossible.”

In this episode, we get into the uncomfortable questions:


Why Caleb refused to accept that formula cars should be track-only


The exact moment this went from a sketch to “we’re actually building this”


Chassis, suspension, engine, and gearbox decisions nobody agrees on


The hardest engineering and regulatory problems — and how they reshaped the car


Lap times vs. reliability vs. drivability (something always loses)


What “street legal” really means in the real world


Who should absolutely NOT buy this car


Pricing, customization limits, delivery reality, and long-term support

This conversation isn’t marketing fluff.
It’s about tradeoffs, consequences, and obsession — the stuff most founders won’t say out loud.

If you’re tired of:


Overweight supercars


Track toys that can’t survive real use


“Driver’s cars” built by committees

…this episode is for you.

This week on Full Throttle Talk, we kick off the new year with one of our most wide-ranging—and opinionated—episodes yet.

We cover the return of legendary roads as The Snake in Malibu reopens after seven years, along with the first real twisty-road shakedown of a rally-prepped air-cooled 911. There’s also a New Year’s Day drive in a Ferrari 296 GTS, where the steering wheel haptics controversy is finally settled. We dig into recent GT3 RS outings, the revival of a 964 C4, and why analog still matters more than ever.

In automotive news, we share an FTT exclusive on RYN Motors and ask the question nobody else seems to be asking: can a Formula-style car for the road actually work? We also discuss the rumored return of the Toyota GR MR2 and Arizona’s very real attempt at building its own version of an Autobahn.

Looking ahead to 2026, we talk about cars that are actually worth paying attention to, including the Caterham Project V, the Toyota GR MR2, the Corvette C8 ZR1X, and why the Porsche GT2 RS still counts.

The 25-year rule takes center stage with newly eligible icons, including the Porsche 996 GT3 RS (EU), Ferrari 550 Barchetta, RUF RTurbo, Renault Clio V6, and Honda Integra Type R (DC5).

We also break down what’s really happening in the market, including no-reserve versus no-sale auctions on Bring a Trailer, Speedster values finally waking up, and what’s truly winning—and losing—heading into 2026.

Plus listener questions, aftermarket body quality debates, and why details still matter.

No hype. No influencer nonsense. Just real car ownership, market insight, and strong opinions.

Welcome back to Full Throttle Talk — the automotive show for people who probably need a financial advisor, a driving coach, and fewer cars bookmarked on Bring a Trailer.

This week:


Tim wins a SIM race (we checked — hell is still warm, but not frozen)


Paul drives the GT3 to Good Vibes / Newcombs like a pilgrimage to Mecca… but with more tire smoke


Dave lists the Talbot Yellow ’79 SC on BaT and the internet is already fighting in the comments


A Puerto Rican collector sends a Carrera GT back to Porsche and gets a full Sonderwunsch rebuild with Salzburg livery 🤯


The ID. Buzz quietly takes a nap until 2026


A tragic crash in a Ferrari 296 GTS claims the life of Vince Zampella


And we make 2026 automotive New Year’s resolutions we are 100% not qualified to achieve
