Joey Seely is an engineer who builds some of the fastest unique Porsches on Earth. After cutting his teeth on Porsche Motorsport's race team, he co-founded BBI Autosport, then opened his business, Emotion Engineering. They focus on tailoring high-performance cars to the driver and environment using a mix of off-the-shelf parts and many of their own design. In a few years Joey has built a custom Pikes Peak car for Rhys Millen, ran Jeff Zwart's 935 campaign, practically created the modern overland Cayenne movement, turned a Turbo S into a Baja machine, all while continuing to learn, innovate, and push the limits. On this episode we talk about his amazing air-cooled Project Nasty; why a smaller-tire racing series is a good idea; what's "wrong" with a GT3; overrated paint colors; what he learned by doing things wrong; some of the tricks on Rhys' Pikes Peak car; carbon fiber costs; and so much more. https://emotionengineering.co/ https://www.instagram.com/emotion_engineering/?hl=en Recorded October 7, 2024  Get Maine LobsterHead over to GetMaineLobster.com – Promo Code TIRE – 15% off all orders store-wide  MyBookieDouble your first deposit up to $2,000 (100% deposit bonus) at https://bit.ly/joinwithTIRE Delete MeTake control of your data and keep your private life private by signing up for DeleteMe.

If you're planning a big race or street car build, it's worth thinking about how you can harness the power of 3D scanning, CAD, and additive manufacturing on the big jobs. In this episode, BBi Autosport's Dimitri Orlov explains how you can incorporate these tools into your build process, how he utilised them when building the infamous “Hoonipigasus” Porsche 911, and a whole lot more.Use “BBI50” to get $50 OFF your 3D Modelling & CAD for Motorsport course: https://hpcdmy.co/CADbBBi Autosport is one of the best known aftermarket Porsche specialists out there, pumping out a range of high-quality parts and builds over the last decade. Based at the company's California facility, Dimitri is the product development engineer behind it all, despite not having the educational background in mechanical engineering that you might expect of someone in his line of work.Dimitri is self taught, and that gives him a unique perspective on design and manufacturing. He talks us through his design process, and discusses how far technology has come in the last few years — both in terms of what it can achieve and how accessible it's become to the home enthusiast. Dimitri explains how the average person can harness all this tech to drastically trim down the amount of time and money being spent on a serious race or street car build. This then gets us on to the topic of 3D printing final parts in metal, and Dimitri dives into just how useful this technology has become. As he points out — sure, you might not have the capability to print metal at home, but it's now becoming viable to send your design to a third party which can then create the part using its own multi-million dollar printers.The conversation then moves on to Dimitri's most well-known project, the “Hoonipigasus” Porsche 911 hillclimb monster. This is a car that most people will be aware of and think they know a lot about, however Dimitri is able to give us some really interesting insights into the build, its immense challenges, and how he and his team overcame those challenges.Follow Dimitri and BBi Autosport here:IG: @orlovdesign, @bbiautosportYT: BBi AutosportWWW: orlovdesign.com, bbiautosport.com Don't forget, you can use “BBI50” to get $50 OFF your 3D Modelling & CAD for Motorsport course: https://hpcdmy.co/CADbTimestamps:4:06 How did you become passionate about the automotive industry?8:15 How did you learn your skillset?9:57 Does having shop floor experience make you a better designer?11:42 Are there any drawbacks to not having an engineering degree?15:51 When did you start diving into 3D modelling and CAD?20:32 What are the steps from CAD model to actually machining a physical part23:10 What did you do before working for BBI and what is BBI?32:28 Design process.43:06 Choosing the right manufacturing process for the part.51:07 Designing a manifold not just for 1000hp, but to fit and work on a factory vehicle.58:05 How has 3D scanning changed things for BBI?1:06:40 Are there affordable scanners that are worth buying?1:12:10 What CAD software do you use and why?1:20:46 Do you use FEA?1:27:18 What is the Hoonipigisus?1:31:15 Engine and gearbox configuration.1:34:28 Biggest challenge?1:38:49 Challenge of running a drive shaft from a rear trans to front differential?1:41:30 How much of a disadvantage would it have been rear wheel drive?1:48:50 Are there any key aspects you'd do differently?

Is 3D printing going to replace CNC machining in the near future?Even your Mum has probably heard of 3D printing at this point, but what's not so well understood — even by enthusiasts — is just how quickly this technology is advancing, and what's now possible when it comes to making your car faster, stronger, and more capable. One person helping to push that technological envelope is this week's guest, Joe Dopkowski of 3D Systems.Use “3D50” to get $50 OFF our 3D Modelling & CAD for Motorsport Course:https://hpcdmy.co/CADbJoe has a background in mechanical engineering, and previous to working with 3D Systems, he spent time at OEM manufacturers developing parts for new vehicles. A long-time motorsport enthusiast, Joe has been able to combine his interests and work to push technological boundaries in the pursuit of more speed, working with F1 teams and aftermarket companies like BBi Autosport and English Racing. In this conversation, Joe starts out by talking us through the history of 3D printing, but what we're most interested in, is where the tech is at now, and where it's heading in the near future. Joe gets us up to speed here, discussing just how far this field has come in a short amount of time, and exactly what's possible right now with current 3D printing capabilities. This means printing not just prototype plastic parts, but producing ultra-strong, ultra-light finished components from titanium, aluminium, and nearly any other metal you can imagine. This episode goes deep on all things additive manufacturing, and is going to challenge any assumptions you might have about 3D printing.

CAD is the future, and the future is here, but is an engineering degree a necessity to break into this world for your own projects or even professionally? Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inAs the man in charge of this side of the business, Dmitriy Orlov of BBI Autosport is no stranger to computer-aided design (CAD) and the manufacturing processes that take things from screen to 3D printer, CNC machine or even paper template.Leaning on his years of practical experience in the industry Dmitriy covers a huge range of valuable topics to anyone interested in learning how to use tools like CAD themselves including where to start (small) and when you should be creative vs pragmatic in relation to design vs manufacturing as well as dealing with the old 'you have to be an engineer to make parts' statement many love to make.Also discussed is some insight into the Hoonipigasus project which saw multiple people working on a range of software including Autodesk Alias & Fusion 360, SOLIDWORKS, & Siemens Solid Edge, all at the same time and in a very short time frame.Tools like generative flow, generative design and the ease of adding constraints to match manufacturing restrictions as well as 3rd party manufacturing options are touched on as well as the general excitement of what is to come in the future. Remember, the best time to start learning a skill you are interested in is now, and the best applications are projects you are interested in finding solutions for/on.

Kenneth Paul Block, conocido por todos como Ken Block, falleció el 2 de enero de este año 2023. Dedicó toda su vida a hacer verdaderas locuras, especialmente en coche. Fue un verdadero acróbata, un hombre espectáculo…. Hemos querido hacerle un homenaje a través de 10 de sus coches más increíbles… ¡Va por ti Ken! Me alucinaba lo que era capaz de hace Ken y aunque en general admiro mucho más a los grandes pilotos, me parece que Ken era muy, pero que muy especial. Especial porque sus vídeos estaban muy por encima de todo lo que habíamos visto hasta entonces. Y luego, se atrevió a participar nada menos que en algunas pruebas del Mundial de Rallyes. Fue una sorpresa para todos. Muchos lo criticaron y se burlaron de sus resultados. Pero consiguió que otros, entre los que me encuentro, le ganásemos respeto. 1. Audi S1 Hoonitron. El nombre completo de este coche, largo, es Audi S1 e-tron Quattro Hoonitrom. Se publicitó como la primera exhibición que iba a hacer Ken con un coche 100x100 eléctrico… 2. Ford Bronco (1974). Siempre que se habla de los coches de Ken te imaginas coches pintados muy llamativos y con adhesivos de sus patrocinadores. No es el caso de este Bronco, sin duda uno de los vehículos menos conocidos de Ken Block es este impresionante Bronco. 3. Ford Escort MK2 RS (1978). Ken lo utilizó en 2015 y fue el primer vehículo de exhibición con solo propulsión trasera. Su motor es atmosférico de 2,5 litros y casi 350 CV. Ken lo utilizó en el Rally de Nueva York, pero sobre todo en programas y videos de “drifting”. 4. Ford Fiesta ST RX43 (2015). Esta unidad nació en 2013 como coche de rallycross. Lo preparó M-Sport, contaba con 600 CV y aceleraba de 0 a 100 en 2 segundos. Debutó en la sexta entrega de sus Gymkhanas. 5. Ford Focus RS RX #43 (2016). Otro coche nacido para el Rallycross y fruto de la colaboración entre Ford Performance, Hoonigan Racing y M-Sport. Su motor turboalimentado de cuatro cilindros y 2,0 litros, logra 600 CV. 6. Ford F-150 Hoonitruck. Además, la Gymkhana 10, muy rutera, me parece de las más espectaculares. Y es que este pick up F-150 de 1977 lleva un motor Ecoboost V6 turboalimentado de 925 CV. Está lleno de buenos detalles: Sofisticada tracción total y una carrocería de aluminio hecha a mano… 7. Ford F-150 RaptorTRAX. En 2013 Ken nos sorprendió con este "Con todos vosotros, RaptorTRAX "que cambiaba las ruedas de todoterreno por unas orugas. Lleva un motor V8, sobrealimentado por un compresor volumétrico, de 6,2 litros y 600 CV. 8. Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR. Un coche clásico con mucho estilo, como un Mustang del 65, pero con caballos, ¡muchos caballos! Debutó en 2016 con un motor V8 biturbo de 845 CV… ¿te parecen pocos? A mí no, pero a Ken sí, por eso hubo una segunda versión con la potencia subida a ¡1.400 CV! Ahora seguro que no les parecen pocos a nadie. 9. Porsche 911 Hoonipigasus. Tuvo bastante fama el Porsche 917/20 "Pink Pig" que participó en Le Mans en 1971 pintado de rosa. Este coche rinde homenaje al “Cerdo rosa”. Sí, es un 911, pero con motor central, de solo 1.000 kg de peso y un motor 4 litros biturbo de 1.400 CV… Los “culpables” con la empresa SVRSR, BBi Autosport y Hoonigan Racing Division. 10. Subaru WRX STI. Este coche tiene el honor de ser el primero que Ken Block usó en su primer vídeo de Gymkhana allá por 2006. Un Subaru de 565 CV y tan solo 1.258 kilos preparado por Vermont SportsCar. Compitió con él en varios rallyes y en la Gumball 3000, pero realmente este coche se hizo famoso en el vídeo de exhibición… el primero de muchos. Conclusión. Este mundo necesita personas como Ken Block. Conocemos sus participaciones en pruebas y exhibiciones de skate, snowboard, motocross, rallyes, Gymkhanas… fue el creador de Hoonigan Racing Division, cofundador de la marca de zapatillas de deporte DC Shoes y lo mejor de todo: ¿Has visto alguna foto suya en donde no esté sonriendo? Tendrá un buen relevo en algunas de sus actividades de la mano de su amigo Travis Pastrana. Porque insisto: Este Mundo necesita personas como Ken Block… Coche del día. Primero digo el coche y luego el motivo. El coche del día de hoy es el Opel Monza 3.0 vendido entre 1978 y 1986. El motivo, para mí fue una auténtica “máquina de derrapar”. Imagínate la “Tormenta perfecta”: Un Máximo Sant con 24 añitos, una pista deslizante solo para mí, un fotógrafo para inmortalizar el momento y un coche con propulsión trasera, eje rígido, autoblocantes y 180 CV… Y os preguntareis, ¿dónde están esas fotos? Pues no lo sé porque eran tan bestias que aparte de llevarme una bronca del director, desaparecieron y tuvimos que hacer una sesión más “polite”…

If you haven't heard of BBI, they make some of the fastest Porsches on Earth, from GT2s to Taycans and everything in between. They built the 1,400HP (!) engine for Ken Block's crazy PPIHC car -the Hoonipigasus- and were instrumental in the design, assembly, and management of that car. They've also built and managed racing and hill-climb programs for a number of other cars, including breaking Pikes Peak Time Attack record in 2019 by over 14 seconds. ⁠ On this show we talk about building cars with 4-digit power; why Porsche oil changes can take 3 hours; the pink pig; and more! Recorded December 20, 2022 Head to factor75.com/tire60 and use code tire60 to get 60% off your first box.Tweet at us! https://www.Twitter.com/thesmokingtire https://www.Twitter.com/zackklapman Instagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thesmokingtire https://www.Instagram.com/therealzackklapmanWant your question answered?

On this special episode of the Avants Podcast we get to catch up with Betim Berisha, owner and creator of BBI Autosport. Three years ago, on episode 95, we got to talk to Betim about his start here in the Pacific Northwest where he grew up with John Kleven, owner of Metropolitan Detail, and working with our friends over at Park Place Motors. In this episode Betim discusses building incredible Pikes Peak winning cars, building cars from scratch for Hoonigan racing, pushing the technology and development envelope of performance parts, and what the future mandate to move to electric cars means for the performance industry.

Part 2 of PPIHC is another double-header! First: Rhys Millen and Joey Seely explain their secrets to being fast, the 1300HP 911 they're campaigning, and a bit of Rhys' history at the mountain. Plus, Rhys' weird tire secret. Then, we hop in an MDX with Acura's lead factory driver, James Robinson, who gives us a turn-by-turn tour of the mountain. He points out specific challenges, turns, driving lines, and talks about the event in general, how he started, and his NSX. Rhys Millen is one of the best drivers on Earth. He holds trophies from Formula D, and Global Rally Cross. He set his first Pikes Peak record in 1997 in a Toyota Supra. He was King of the Mountain (overall winner) in 2012 and 2015, set the EV record in 2016, and set the SUV record in 2018. He's also won at Baja, knows how to setup a car, and as we find out, has a weird secret with tires. Joey Seely was a co-founder of BBI Autosport. 6 years ago he struck out on his own to open Emotion Engineering. Initially, he focused on chassis/suspension setup. He was the lead engineer for Jeff Zwart's PPIHC efforts several times, including with the ultra-rare 935. But as former racing engineer, Joey knew he could go bigger. Over time he's developed his own parts, brake pads, and engine builds, all culminating in this incredible Pikes Peak effort with Rhys Millen. Head to https://www.Policygenius.com to get your free life insurance quotes and see how much you could save. Berryman Products.

For Betim Berisha, years of hard work and determination paid off when he was able to start his own shop – BBI Autosport. Berisha started off sweeping floors for a local shop in Washington state before being promoted. Now with his hand picked team of craftsmen they build some of the fastest and most powerful Porsche and exotic cars out of their Huntington Beach, California workshop. Make sure to follow us and subscribe!NoBraking can be found on Instagram and Facebook

While in SoCal to pick up Art's NSX, we stopped by BBI Autosport and decided to record a last minute podcast. We only had a half hour, but it was a good time and we look forward to doing a longer one in the future.Find them at www.bbiautosport.comThanks for listening!Please rate and review the show on iTunes.

Art bought the NSX, and he and Lane flew down to Laguna Beach to pick it up. On this trip they also stopped by BBI Autosport, Petrolicious HQ, and went to the premiere of Adam Carolla's new doc 'The 24 Hour War". Listen as they drive home, reflecting on the trip and giving their impressions of the Acura NSX.Thanks for listening!Please subscribe, tell a friend and rate and review the show on iTunes. 

We are once again joined by our good friend Betim Berisha of BBI Autosport, to talk Porsches, Mustangs, and crashing cars. Betim shares his knowledge on building large displacement Porsches, the ridiculous value proposition of a used 996 and some nearly unbelievable speeds he has achived in runway cars.
