This Week on Full Throttle Talk
The crew covers everything from Ferrari’s 296 Speciale hype to the age-old question — is Porsche about to copy Ferrari’s “too many trims, too little soul” playbook with the GT cars? 🤔
🚗 This Episode Includes:
Fall Driving Diaries → Tim logs 10+ hours in the 718 RS, Speedster, Miata & TR before heading back to PR. Paul goes full RADwood, Casey daily’s the Land Cruiser, and David finally picks up his GT3 RS (but has only driven 40 miles… shame!).
Automotive News → Ferrari says the Speciale isn’t a GT3 RS competitor (so what is it?). Honda kills the Civic Type R in Europe — could North America be next? Plus, Toyota’s turbo FJ60 restomod and Porsche’s secret W18 hypercar engine concept.
Proper Winter Car Prep → Do you actually need fuel stabilizer, tire bags, dehumidifiers, and Li-ion battery tenders… or should you just slap on winter wheels and drive it?
🎧 Listener Questions (the Good Stuff):
• How do you corner an air-cooled 911 without mowing a lawn?
• Why Ferrari brakes feel dead vs. Porsche’s PCCBs.
• Carrera T vs. horsepower bloat — why “less” really is more.
• Is Ferrari’s “Speciale” line just expensive carbon packages now?
• Porsche GT3 RS ESC/TC settings for real-world spirited driving.
• Which matters more: sound or speed, if regulations kill both?
🔥 This or That:
BaT match-ups include a $15K Ford LTD vs. a $16K Anniversary Corvette, Carrera coupe vs. cabrio, RS6 Avant vs. AMG E63 wagon, and even Fiat 500 vs. Messerschmitt.
