Full Throttle Talk

• ZR1X vs the World, Porsche 911 Seam Welded Truths & Bring-a-Trailer Battles

  This week on Full Throttle Talk, we hit redline on controversy. Tim Harris, Paul Kramer, Casey Parkin, and Dave Van Epps dive headfirst into the rumored Nürburgring lap time of the upcoming Corvette ZR1X—reportedly a mind-melting 6:28. That’s faster than the AMG One. So what happens when a Chevy, built in Bowling Green, becomes the fastest production car on Earth… on Germany’s home turf? Let’s just say: Enzo’s ghost may need a stiff drink. We also break down the do’s and don’ts of car rallies (spoiler: there’s a correct way to sticker a supercar), plus another round of “This or That,” where two Bring-a-Trailer finds under $30K battle for budget brilliance. Then, Dave throws playful shade at 997 GT3s while we ask: is the 996 GT3 secretly the king of all GT3s? (Did you know it was seam-welded from the factory while the 997 used a 997S chassis? Yeah. It’s a thing.) Finally, it’s the $700,000 question: if you could only pick one—911 ST, 458 Speciale, or Ford GT—what’s your play? The fact that all four hosts unanimously agreed is either a miracle… or a sign of the apocalypse. It’s loud, it’s nerdy, it’s chaotic—and it’s Full Throttle Talk. Buckle up.

The show wraps with a gut-busting "Two-Car Garage" segment, where we pick two cars under $100K to match a hilarious story, delivering laughs and horsepower in equal measure.

• PTS Obsession, RS Showdowns & The $40K Surprise Lurking in Your 911

  This week’s Full Throttle Talk is a no-holds-barred Porsche deep dive, and it’s one of our most opinion-packed episodes yet. Tim Harris, Paul Kramer, Casey Parkin, and Dave Van Epps fire up the mics to tackle the questions that Porsche owners argue over in garages, group chats, and concours lawns worldwide. Why are Porsche fanatics willing to spend $20,000+ just to get the exact shade of green last seen on a '74 Carrera RS? We unpack the psychology, the scarcity, and the resale math behind Paint to Sample. Is it emotional vanity, smart investment—or both? You'll never look at a pastel orange GT3 the same way again. We put the spotlight on the most undervalued and overhyped modern Porsche RS models. Some are tracking quietly under the radar… others are riding high on reputation alone. Which RS is still a steal—and which one is about to get a market correction? Think rebuilding your stock 911 SC motor is a $10K weekend project? Think again. We walk you through the true cost of a standard rebuild—and why even a no-frills, numbers-matching engine refresh could set you back $30K–$40K. No mods. No tuning. Just reality. Which delivers the better drive: the ultra-refined, perfectly balanced 911 R, or the raw, analog grit of the legendary 964 RS? We compare notes, impressions, and real-world experiences to help you pick your dream garage weapon. And if that’s not enough? We couldn’t resist a few detours into Italian territory—with some spicy Pagani talk and Ferrari market insight to round out the ride. This episode is a love letter to car obsession—where color choices spark bidding wars, and a rebuilt flat-six becomes a six-figure affair. Strap in. It's Full Throttle time.  PTS: Paint or Prestige? RS Market Madness Engine Reality Check 911 R vs. 964 RS: The Purist’s Dilemma
