#1018² RACING IS LIFE² – S7 E2 – F1 HYPE?

I am watching formula one for quite some time already. I can still remember the Sundays in my youth when my granddad would watch the races, or rather fall asleep while doing so. But actively following motorsport and formula one in particular is something that I have started around 7…

#1006² RACING IS LIFE² – S7 E1 – THE PLAN FOR THIS YEAR

Before we notice the first part of the year 2022 is already over. It’s unbelievable how quickly the time is running by these days. I noticed an increase of the speed in the last couple of years, true, but with me working full time now the time is literally flying!…

#994² THE PORSCHE 911 994 GENERATION?

Will the 994 be the next Porsche 911 generation? We don’t know that of course, but it would make sense. Therefore, let us just assume that this is the number they will pick. The future doesn’t look as bright as it was one decade ago. The cars these days have…

#993² THE PORSCHE 911 993 GENERATION

Yes, you are right, the Porsche content continues. But it is worth the effort, I promise! You have to know at least this about the Porsche 911 history. The 993 is, at least for some old enthusiast, the last real Porsche 911 out there. Why? Because it is the last…

#992² THE PORSCHE 911 992 GENERATION

With the current Porsche 911 992 generation, Porsche reinvented the 911 once more. The “best” Porsche is and will always be the newest version. But is the “best” 911 the one we want? The current 911 generation represents the state of the art technology. It’s the perfect symbiosis of old…

Car guys and girls always love the cars from their youth. They develop a passion for the car that was up to date when they were younger. Saying that this Porsche 911 generation was the one hanging on my walls would just be such a cliché and totally wrong after…

#983² RACING IS LIFE² – S6 E16 – PRACTICE!

Driving cars belongs to one of those things in life that can be practiced while doing it. And so, a lot of people just do that. Driving their cars around the circuit lap after lap after lap. Sure, you will get better eventually, but that’s not what we call an…

#970² RACING IS LIFE² – S6 E15 – PORSCHE PANAMERA 970

I was doing my apprenticeship at that time. A coworker and I visited the quality department for two weeks. It was interesting, sure, but I had something else in mind. I was looking at my watch constantly. Why can’t the workday be over already? Finally! I left work around 3…

#958² RACING IS LIFE² – S6 E14 – BACK ON THE SIMULATOR

Yes, you have heard right! I am back! At least for a couple laps a day. With my health issues making my life quite difficult in the last months, finally, I am back in the game. And god did I missed it! Life without racing is just not the same.…

#949² AUDI A3 40 TFSI e – ONE YEAR OWNERSHIP REVIEW – PART II – WHAT I DO NOT LIKE

When it comes to the things I do not like about this car, this is of course highly subjective. But what really strikes me here is the fact that the most of my complaints are not even about the car itself, meaning the hardware, but more about the software around…
