Default Some in car vid of my NC trip

I love the smokies! Been there three times now, once when we were younger on our sport bikes now we take one of the Porsche’s. A friend of mine has a motor home and car hauler setup and goes several times a year.

Here are a couple of videos taken before I broke my strut mount. 😢 Jeremy Clarkson thinks that America’s roads suck and have no corners. He needs to come here!

What exhaust are you running?

My one single regret in owning my 996 is where I live, not a single curvy road anywhere. I caught the 911 bug after renting one in LA. My first 911 experience included the Los Angeles Crest Highway.

I am back home now and the roads are soooo boring.

My exhaust is a $100 gundo hack done at my local muffler shop (the PSE style) mated with Top Gear UK 200 cell cats. Quiet as stock when cruising and roars when on the gas. The first video is top up, second is top down.

Great vids, thanks for sharing. Just did all this a couple weeks ago and had a blast. Will go back this fall for sure.

Looks like great fun. Not sure I would post videos of me speeding though. Maybe find a way to crop that out?

I tried but technically challenged. I don't think my $60 dash cam is very accurate at indicating true speed so I said screw it, lol.
