Mick jumps back on the good ship Renngineering.
It's always fun us two getting together to rattle through what's going on in our lives but when Porsche release a do not drive statement just in time for a Waffle, it was always going to be good.
We also gave our thoughts on the GT3 992.2 and the 911 Carrera T. A cabrio... really?!
I hope you're all doing well. If you are get out and drive and if you can't do that, get planning a trip for when you can.
Thanks for listening.

Picture this... you've found a car that sounds like a scam, but it's a Singer style shell, sat at Tuthill Porsche. It's reasonable money but you're taking it on, basically on trust. You then don't want to build a Singer tribute and go about building something yourself.
That's what Paul Leyton did with this 911!
Some people have a natural way about them, that makes you feel that nothing is worth getting too upset about, and that it'll all work out. Well this episode gives you about ten of those examples.
The output from all of that work is an absolutely stunning car. Genuinely one of the nicest "home builds" and I'm reluctant to use that term, that I've ever seen.
It's also now for sale. As is one of my kidneys.
We follow Paul from the early days of building VW Beetles, through a load of flips, to his one of ten 964 cab, his 993 build and this, his complete one off.
You'd be forgiven for thinking that little trip is cool as it is, but you really do need to shoot over to YouTube to check the interior out. It's amazing.
A big thanks to Paul for being a good friend and for spending time with me. An even bigger thanks for when we caught up once the new engine was in and being dialled in and chucking me the keys. Yes, you guessed it, that's on YouTube as well.
You can find Paul at @dooley.vw on instagram. So if you listen, and then check out the pics on the Renngineering insta, or watch on YouTube and want to buy the car, shoot him a DM.
Thanks for listening.

A big personality from a big man!
Some episodes you listen back to and find yourself smiling a big dumb smile. That's what this episode did.
Partly because it was so useful for me to learn about air-cooled Porsche engines, or at least start that journey but also because he's such a good laugh to be around.
You'll hear us talk about Chris and his dad's background in racing, including a Jacky Ickx Le Mans winning engine build, Chris's own motorsport career but also how he's part mechanically minded and part artisan. Like a BFG sized Roald Dahl.
Chris takes me through the pro's and con's of all the different eras of six cylinder P-car engine and what to consider before almost coming to a conclusion. Almost.
No doubt we'll debate it further as things develop, but for now at least it's food for thought.
Bonus easter egg for the OG's that wait for the post credits.

The comeback kid
What a strange couple of weeks! With an episode that was difficult to record, difficult to edit, and difficult to put out, you couldn't make up the u-turn that came after.
With that pause and reflection in the bank, and the need to buy a new daily runabout, particularly for the winter, it was looking more and more like buying a VX220 or Elise donor car for the RENN550 was going to be a 2025 thing.
The budget for a donor isn't huge, with the early phase of the build but self funded. That's why monetising both the pod and YouTube channel are so important.
Cars have come and gone, but mostly written off/totalled cars. For most cars that's a problem. Lotus cars tend to be written off for silly things like lights, small cracks in the fibreglass clam shells etc. So whilst not attractive to a potential future owner, as a development car not a disaster. Still, I did want a straight car with a clean title/V5.
I missed a few cars by minutes, until one popped up online at the exact moment I was scrolling away. Within seconds I'd messaged "I'll have it!". Roadworthy, serviced and MOT'd and with 74000 miles and with a clean title - it's perfect.
So there we have it. I'll be dallying a scruffy old VX220 whilst at the same time 3D scanning it so I have data to play with.
Als0, in between the last episode and this, I had two episodes shot with both Tuthill Porsche's Richard Tuthill and a second episode with Frank Cassidy. Both who told stories of being focused on the goal and being willing to take some knocks along the way.
Time for me to take a few days off and relax in Greece, but I'll be back next week with more of season 3 after this brief interlude.
Thanks for listening.

The honest episode.
I remember listening to Porsche Cooled with Michael Bath just before Renngineering started and hearing him talk about being tired and it being a pretty labour intensive thing to do, putting out a podcast weekly.
Blindly positive, I thought how hard can it be!? Turns out there are two answers to that. If you have a team around you making it all happen and you can be the host, pretty sensible. However, if you're a pretty normal working guy or gal, and having to do it all, well that's intense.
Not to do things be halves, I chose to start a channel where I go and see and chat to these big companies, fantastic independents, or cool collectors.
I absolutely love doing it and I'd play to mosquitos as Sheryl Crow says. I just wouldn't put pressure on myself to put an episode out a week!
The problem is... if you don't, you won't grow. If you don't hammer social media, you won't grow. If you aren't shamefully self promoting, you won't grow.
So this episode is a bit of a reflection of all of that.
I don't like leaving things with a negative tone, so I thought I'd share a chat that I recorded when I went to visit Simon, who owns Built By Basil. Another normal, down to earth guy doing what he loves and trying to make it a success.

This week is a break in the big episodes and I grab Mick for some good old fashioned Waffle. With absolutely no planned conversation, we surprised ourselves and found that there was quite a bit to talk through.
We start by trying to figure out what Porsche is trying to achieve by forcing brands that are woven in to the brand to no longer market their cars as a Porsche, even when they're built off one.
We chat about Mick seeing the new 992.2 just last weekend and his first thoughts. That led us nicely on to how much they are these days and what you could buy as an alternative, given how much prices have come off recently.
That then Segway'd in to what you could buy for £100k. I for once wasn't too reckless where as Mick had full confidence in the brand.
We wrap with some reflections on the current Formula 1 rankings and the weekend ahead.

I agonised over who to use for interior trimming.
With any company I choose to use for my Outlaw Cayman, the hope is that I'll have a great experience so that when it comes to building the RENN550, I've got the relationships and trust in place to know the product at the end is what I'm looking for.
I'm frustratingly difficult as a customer. I have such high expectations of people that it's rare that I'm completely satisfied. That's not to say everyone is awful. Far from it. But, companies are trying to make a profit, so you either pay for that last 2% of quality with 80% more outlay. Or you accept great, but not perfect, as the end result.
The other part of it, is the person behind the company. What are they like? Are they good to their staff? Are they willing to stand behind their work, or come up with excuses, or worse, lie... Yes, by the way I've had that during the Cayman build.
The great news is that Dave, of Dave The Trimmer, ticks all the boxes.
I first saw Dave's 964 at Flat 6 show at Goodwood Circuit. I was bowled over. I'm sure most people look at his Guards Red, low AF 964 and take a peak at the interior and think it's nice... and move on.
I spent 15 minutes just looking at the interior alone. Trying to get my head around how he managed to ghost fade pasha on grey Alcantara. How the stitch was arrow straight and even at every seam.
Then I spoke to him and he humoured the perfectionist in me. No... scratch that...reverse it... he seemed to enjoy the challenge.
It's fair to say that throughout the process of designing the trimming plans for my car, we didn't quite get on the same page. But there was trust on both sides.
The result? It's a show stopper. People seem to appreciate the aesthetic of the Outlaw Cayman, but go nuts for the interior.
I just can't wait to see what he does with a Lotus/550 Spyder hybrid. It's going to be wild.

Flipping heck.
Sometimes you get to speak to someone and wonder what living their life must have been like. Chatting to Graeme and his wife Kerry, at Porsche in the Park 2024, allowed me (and you) to get an insight in to that. At least a little bit...
From crashing his first car and putting himself firmly in hospital after passing his driving test 20 days prior, to racing at Daytona, to the Porsche Championship and winning races (draws breath), to collecting and owning a Porsche Carrera GT, Graeme has the t-shirt(s), the cups and the scars to prove all.
I said it before, but I'll say it for the bleachers... The cars are cool, but the people are cooler.
Grab a coffee. Put your feet up and settle in.

Barry Hart. A name you may have heard but possibly not. Hartech... if you've owned a Porsche, or even thinking about an early model water-cooled P-car, it's highly likely you've heard the name.
If you've listened for a while, you'll know that Renngineering isn't only about the tech side of Porsche ownership. It's about the people and culture that goes behind it. When you've been working on these cars as long as Barry Hart (78 years young), there isn't a lot you haven't seen before and don't know.
He's forgotten more than I'll ever know.
He's also one of life's really lovely human beings. Not satisfied with being a Doc from Back to the Future level of engineering mind, he built a team of passionate enthusiasts. Then nurtured them in to also being geniuses.
That family feel comes across when you listen to the episode. You can watch this episode on YouTube, where you'll some of the engineering work and images of Barry's cars and the great man himself.
Not only that, but this was the second episode shot at Porsche in the Park! The first, earlier in the day being the owner of a Carrera GT! So, if you hear some background noise, that is to be expected when recording a live event.

We're back! Season 3 couldn't kick off without some good, old fashioned Waffle.
We kick off with a general catch up and talk through the car park, given we've gatecrashed at Porsche Portsmouth, whilst Mick drops his car in for its THIRD PADM module since birth.
After moaning about the one British part on the car, we get in to the chance to get back on the road, and how great our experiences are with Michelin tyres! With Michelin having recently collaborated with Renngineering, it has given us time to learn a little more about what really goes in to tyre manufacture. Stay tuned for developments and possibly a future Tech Talk episode!
We start to wrap up by talking about my car briefly before a deeper conversation about what's happening with the Porsche culture scene in the U.K. and clubs vs organic online communities. It's a less widely talked about topic and we weigh in on our thoughts.

Well we're back! It's been a few months with essential taken out to shoot episodes and finish(ish) the Renngineering Outlaw Cayman!
I hope what's in store is exciting. I can't wait to get episodes edited and out for you all to see.
Don't forget to head over to YouTube and subscribe there for the full episodes with drive outs in some very very special cars.

Well after a short recess, Mick and I are back to talk about all things 992.2. But, before we do it wouldn't be a Waffle (trademark never going to be applied for) without a catch up.
With Mick recovering from some kind of lurgy, I take a little pressure of him and chat through how I feel about the interior work on the Outlaw Cayman now I've had it back a week.
This episode wraps up season 2 of the podcast and I'll be taking a short break for a holiday, before getting back to it and starting to pull together the dozen or so YouTube episodes backed up, and some of the exciting ones coming.

He's back. You didn't ask for him and you got him anyway! Mick returns to the podcast to prop me up and review everything that's going on in the world of Porsche.
We had intended on talking about the 992.2 launch, but in true Waffle (R) style, we failed miserably and ended up bantering with each other.
We did, however, work through Kalmar Porsche and the option to take ANY P-car and make it a safari. We deep dived in to F1 post 2026 and fantasised over increased noise, compressed engine builds and seeing the small constructor have a chance for once.
Senna, as you can imagine, came up. It's been 30 years since his tragic passing and both of us feel connected to him as a person and as a driver, so some homage was paid, albeit by two relatively uniformed morons.
Finally we spent a chunk of time figuring out whether all the work on the @outlawcayman was for nothing and I really do have very little taste.
It's not a serious episode, so you'll find it a joy, if you're having a dull or dreary day.
Mick will be back soon and we WILL talk about the 992.2 Porsche 911.
I hope you enjoy the episode. Your encouragement, comments and feedback really keeps me going.

This week I'm joined by Duck & Whale Magazine, founder, editor and Porsche brand low key icon - Lee Dean.
Lee is a bit of an enigma. You can tell from watching the content on YouTube, that he's a deep thinker and the passion for cars, but particularly the Porsche brand, runs through him.
I had been wanting to chat to him for some time. In fact, his own 911 had been a source of inspiration for my own Porsche Cayman, particularly running the Group 4 wheels.
Thankfully we both managed to carve out some time, and only a few days ago grabbed a seat and toured through his life, from childhood 4 pot shitboxes with a single Recaro seat, to scaring the boss in a 997 GT2 near Bondi beach, all the way through to why owning a P-car is ESSENTIAL for any father.
I hope you enjoy the episode. Your encouragement, comments and feedback really keeps me going.

This week covers a jam packed U,K. bank holiday weekend. The bulk of the episode looks at a review of the Legends Drivers Club event at the iconic Goodwood circuit. Considering how poor the weather was, some absolutely amazing cars came out, both classic and modern.
That sums up the LDC events... inclusive. Inclusive in terms of people, and in terms of P-Cars.
Also I cover plans for my Outlaw Cayman, and give a run down of the immediate plans, which included dropping the car to Dave the Trimmer in Bedford, for the most nerve wracking part of this build so far. You can try things out with relatively low risk, knowing you can remove something and go, either back to standard or try again. When it's a complicated, expert needed thing like interior trimming, that's not really possible.
The nerves people. The nerves are rife! You'll be able to see for yourself at Flat 6 show later in the year, whether I nailed it or not.
I also talk about the shoot that took place on Saturday, with aircooled engine building legends, Wrightune. Chris Wright gave me a massive man-hug at the end of the shoot, so it's fair to see we got on like.a house on fire. Problem is it looked like Rocky fighting Hulk Hogan (Thunderlips) in Rocky 3. Chris is 6'5" and I... well, I'm not.
Finally, it's a good chance to introduce next weeks' special guest. Lee Dean, from the beautifully designed Duck and Whale magazine. I've wanted to speak to Lee for as long as I've owned a Porsche, so it'll be brilliant to hear his passion brought to life.
I hope you enjoy the episode. Your encouragement, comments and feedback really keeps me going.

What a fun thing to do... To sit down and replay a road trip. Reflect on the high's and low's (there were both). To talk about what I learned from the Monaco/Route Napoleon/Col de Turini/Col de la Bonette and apply some of that to this year.
You'll have to listen to find out if I managed to do it "better".
A big big shoutout to Nathan, to Joe and B-roll Roger, and to the guys, David and Martin from Goldleaf Performance. Last year and doing it completely solo was fun but it was a really fantastic experience having great people to enjoy it with.
So the road trip covers:
Bastogne and the fox holes of the Battle of the BulgeFour days at the NurburgringThe Porsche Museum at StuttgartReims GueuxRouen F1 circuit and hunting for the last remaining pieces of Porsche's only Formula 1 win.I hope you enjoy the episode. Your encouragement, comments and feedback really keeps me going.

It's hard shooting a road trip, being in the moment and then getting a podcast episode recorded, edited and out. So it's a couple of days later than planned but it's here!
After five days on the road, I sat down with a good mate of mine and we talked about the trip so far, his Porsche experience and being mates for 25 years.
It's been a fascinating road trip, and I give a sneaky peak in to one of the odd things that happened just that day.
I'm definitely flagging though and ten points if you noticed the continuity error of saying episode 44 when it is actually 42. I'm sure no one will notice though :)
The full trip breakdown is coming next week but don't forget to head to insta for all the update posts along the way.
I hope you enjoy the episode. Your encouragement, comments and feedback really keeps me going.

This week's episode comes a day late! The unintended consequence of locking your Mac, mic, storage devices etc in the trunk/boot of your car and then BRICK the car!! Just days before the start of a massive road trip.
I believe the phrase is "sub-optimal". So this episode picks up that story and talks about the prep ahead of that trip. I'll be documenting the whole trip as you can imagine but it makes sense to walk you through what the trip has shaped up to be. A mix of Band of Brothers tour and petrolhead heaven. I'm actually writing this whilst episode 3 is on...
I can't wait to get on the road now. I've got the nervous jitters. That feeling in your stomach that is a mix of excitement and nerves, that only comes when an adventure is about to start. I really hope you'll join me on the trip.

I personally enjoy shooting Tech Talk episodes the most! They're all special but as an engineer, the opportunity to be inquisitive, ask seemingly dumb questions and have an expert teach me (and you) about what it takes to be an expert, and get a proper behind the scenes... It's a real privilege to do that.
This weeks Tech Talk follows on from the previous Renngineering episode where I unveiled the RENN550 in much greater detail. You can see that on YouTube right now!
It's about partnerships though, and I literally cannot do it on my own.
That's where people, and companies like Osport come in. By working closely, suddenly some of these really technically difficult problems can be solved.
This episode is on carbon fibre production.
Let's face it, everyone loves a bit of carbon fibre. You see it everywhere, from F1 cars to a roll of sticky back stuff on eBay. Please don't by that tat...
But even when it's real carbon, there are quality differences between mass produced low quality and relatively cheap parts, and motorsport or supercar quality. Osport design and produce high quality carbon fibre parts to some of the biggest household name Porsche companies (and others) out there!
It's an honour to have them on board and I really hope you enjoy the conversation.
The intent with Renngineering is to produce a low volume sports car, tailorable for any market (LHD/RHD/Central position). Additional sponsorship is being sought so please do get in touch if you've listened to this podcast and feel your brand is aligned to Renngineering.
As a potential partner, options for system/build contribution, product, and financial, are all options.

Last week the trailer for the RENN550 was made public.
Today, I break down the design details and share some of the partners involved in creating what will be one of the few truly remarkable sports cars. It's a big statement, but in a world of huge horsepower, huge tyres and excess, the RENN550 stands alone.
Lightweight, appropriate power and torque, low to medium grip. The car will be designed to feel urgent but move around on the throttle. To feel like a Porsche 550 Spyder but on steroids.
The intention for this project is to reimagine the Porsche 550 Spyder silhouette. Capitalising on the beautiful shape and dimensions, however, using latest technology materials and construction to create a road-going sports car that embodies everything from both yesteryear and today.
There are three key design acknowledgements.
- Lotus 111 chassis as a platform to build upon.
- Carbon fibre composite body construction.
- Aircooled Porsche derived powertrain.
The intent is to produce a low volume sports car, tailorable for any market (LHD/RHD/Central position). Additional sponsorship is being sought.
Options for system/build contribution, product, and financial, are all options.
