9WERKS Radio : The Porsche and Car Podcast

Andy, Lee and Max hit the road for an evening with the RPOC @rpocgruppe37, a relatively new and inclusive Porsche owners club based in Hertfordshire.

Recorded in front of a live audience, the boys chat to the group’s founder, James, before group member Steve Winter of Jaz Porsche offers some entertaining anecdotes from his 40-year career and racing experience. The boys then open the floor to a Q&A session covering all things Porsche, with some great comment and debate around the best decade for sports cars… what’s yours?

The EXPERIMENT was a blast, we hope you enjoy the episode. We are looking forward to more ‘9WR on Tour’ events in the future.

We kick off the new series of 9WERKS Radio with details of an icy expedition in a Porsche 356! Renee Brinkerhoff and her navigator, the world-record-holding polar explorer, Jason de Carteret, join Lee and Andy to discuss how they conquered 356 miles over challenging terrain in sub-zero temperatures in what must surely be one of the most outrageous yet awe-inspiring expeditions ever undertaken in a Porsche.

The boys also talk to industry expert Mark Sumpter of Paragon Porsche to find out why Carrera GT values have unexpectedly sky-rocketed to nearly $2 million in the first few weeks of the year.

We also release details of the competition to have your livery design on the Shorade Boxster that will be raced by Steve Shore in the Porsche Classic Boxster Cup this year, get ya pencils sharpened!

Who are the guys behind @RennEleven and @Retro_Classica? We find out when mates Sean Matthews and Walter Crobrock join Andy & Lee for a (at times rather random) conversation about their love for cars and Porsches. Walter has been in the car industry for many years with a fascinating story, including appearing on a TV show. Sean takes us through his love of cars and how his 996 came into his possession and why he started RennEleven.

Please excuse Walter's potty mouth from time to time!

Two days after the event, Dealer Principal, Jon Sullivan, joins Lee and Andy at the Centre to explain what it’s like moving an established dealership into a new home in the midst of Brexit and Covid, and how the new dealership plans to attract old Porsche sports cars home again. This wide-ranging chat also includes discussion about GT car allocation, the global shortage of computer chips, and why community is key for both employees and enthusiasts dedicated to Stuttgart’s prancing horse.
