60 years ago, Porsche fundamentally changed the sports car benchmark by affixing a single, iconic letter to the back of the 911: "S".To celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Porsche 911S (1966–2026), Lee and Andy embark on a comprehensive deep-dive into the history, engineering, and cultural impact of Porsche's quintessential performance model. From its humble origins as a 160hp high-revving 2.0-litre screamer to today's twin-turbocharged 992 Carrera S, we trace the complete timeline of the badge that defined everyday supercar usability.Has the significance of the "S" badge diminished in an era dominated by GT3s, Turbos, and GTS models, or does the Carrera S remain the absolute sweet spot of the 911 lineup? Special Guest Expert Panel:The Air-Cooled Era: Adrian Crawford from Williams Crawford Passion for Porsche joins us to break down the golden age of air-cooled 911S models—from the original F-Model 2.0S, 2.2S, and 2.4S through to the iconic Carrera 2.7S and 2.8 RSR heritage.The Water-Cooled Era: Jason from Porsche Centre Bournemouth steps in to guide us through the modern generation transition—evaluating the 996.2 Carrera S, 997.1/997.2, 991, and current 992 Carrera S to explain how Porsche dealership customers view the "S" badge today.QUICK FAQ: 60 YEARS OF THE PORSCHE 911S Q: When was the first Porsche 911S introduced? A: The Porsche 911S was first introduced in 1966 for the 1967 model year as the first high-performance derivative of the original 911, producing 160 hp from its 2.0-litre air-cooled flat-six engine.Q: What does the "S" stand for in Porsche 911S? A: The "S" in Porsche 911S stands for "Sport." It designated upgraded engine performance, enhanced chassis components, vented disc brakes, and iconic Fuchs alloy wheels.Q: What is the difference between a Porsche Carrera and Carrera S? A: Historically and in modern water-cooled generations (997, 991, 992), the Carrera S offers larger engine displacement/higher horsepower, upgraded brakes, wider track/wheels, standard PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), and sportier chassis tuning compared to the base Carrera. LINKS & RESOURCESExplore the Marketplace:9WERKS Marketplace: Check out verified Porsche 911 listings available right now: https://9werks.co.uk/porschemarketplace/Support Our Partners & Sponsors:Shorade UK (Official Partner): Premier body repair partner and official Porsche Recommended Repairer: https://www.shorade.co.uk/Heritage Parts Centre: Keeping your modern classic or air-cooled Porsche mechanically flawless.

We are scanning the virtual showroom of the 9WERKS Marketplace to answer the ultimate question: Which Porsches are actually going up in value right now?The rules of the game are simple. One of us chooses a car currently listed on the marketplace and pitches it to the other two, who are acting as strict, risk-averse bank managers. To win the funding, the pitch has to be flawless. Is the car a guaranteed future classic, or is it a financial money pit? Would a bank actually release the funds in real life?From overlooked water-cooled gems to air-cooled icons hitting a market sweet spot, we debate the numbers, the data, and the emotional triggers that drive Porsche values.In this episode, we discuss:The Bank Manager Challenge: Pitching real cars from the 9WERKS Marketplace.Porsche Market Trends: What is driving values up (or down) right now?Future Classic Predictions: The specific models we think are set to climb.Investment vs. Enjoyment: Can you buy a Porsche to drive and make a profit?Drop your investment picks in the comments—which car would you pitch to the bank?Available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.LINKS & RESOURCESExplore the Marketplace:9WERKS Marketplace: Think you can spot a better investment?

Coming up… With the 2026 World Cup now in the books, CIFA Senior Men's Coach Collin “Dougie” Rowe shares his take on a tournament that pushed new nations into the spotlight.Also ahead… Cayman is gearing up for two major multi‑sport stages this summer — the CAC Games in Santo Domingo and the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.Plus… A crew of North Sound Golf Club regulars has wrapped up an unforgettable Irish links golf adventure.And… Cayman's young volleyball players got a special boost last week as Trinidad and Tobago standout Renelle Ford stepped in as guest mentor at the summer camp.

More than 60 kids pack the gym for Cayman's volleyball summer camp, but the big turnout is exposing a major need for better facilities and more coaches. Cayman Brac rolls through football and basketball camps with strong numbers and now swimming and cricket are up next. Mitchum Sanford says the Brac's summer sports lineup is bigger than ever. And… A new National record has been set by the under 18 mixed relay team

Porsche Trims the Lineup, and We Called It Porsche is streamlining, and the rumor mill says the Taycan, Cayenne Coupe, and possibly the 718 Boxster and Cayman are all on the chopping block, with the 911 lineup likely losing some variants too. Nobody is going to shed a tear over the Taycan, and the Cayenne Coupe will get a few mourners at best, but losing the 718s would sting for a lot of enthusiasts. The funniest part is that we have been saying Porsche needed to do exactly this for a while now, both recently and way back, so either they are finally listening or somebody at Weissach has really good podcast recommendations. Goodwood Is Coming to America Goodwood Festival of Speed just wrapped and it remains the single best car event either of us has ever been to, hands down. The big news out of this year's event is that Goodwood is officially bringing the festival to the US, though details on location and format are still under wraps. Given how protective Goodwood is of its brand and how much work they have put into building that reputation, there is no chance they phone in the US version. Our money is on a West Coast location, and the hill climb has to be part of it, because without that centerpiece it just is not Goodwood anymore. What Else Gets You Close to a 911? With 911 pricing where it is now, we went down the rabbit hole of what else out there gets you in the neighborhood without the Porsche premium. Nothing replicates the rear-engine layout or that specific balance, but a few cars get close in spirit. The S2000 AP1 is a blast, 2,800 pounds, high-revving, gutless on torque but rewarding on balance with true 50/50 weight distribution, though clean examples are climbing in price fast. The GT350 is the consolation prize with more muscle, 526 horsepower at 8,250 rpm out of that flat-plane V8, but it is a heavier car at 3,750 pounds with a 54/46 split, so stick to the later models since the early ones had documented engine issues. Then there is the F87 M2, 3,450 pounds, 365 horsepower with real tuning headroom since it is turbocharged, 51.9/48.1 balance, sitting in that 35-50k range. And we had to talk about the clown shoe, the BMW M Coupe, which barely counts as a real production run but has earned full cult status anyway. Grab a drink, settle in, and we will see you next time.

Introduction Captive premiums have crossed roughly $79 billion globally, so why are so many captive programs still managed in Excel and email? In this episode, Joshua Hollander talks with Illia Pinchuk, CEO and founder of DICEUS, about where manual workflows leak value in a captive program and what it takes to move a captive manager off spreadsheets. Listeners will hear how feature-based pricing changes the cost math for captives, why data onboarding is the real adoption barrier, and where AI actually helps today.   Guest Bio Illia Pinchuk founded DICEUS in 2011 and has led the company for fourteen years, evolving from professional services for insurers, brokers, MGAs, and TPAs into ready-made products. DICEUS now offers 22 products across business lines, with captive insurance among its strongest segments, anchored by a captive management platform and a captive owner portal. Pinchuk trained as an engineer in mechatronics and robotics and has completed executive coursework through Harvard Business School Online.   Key Topics -A young market with about 7,000 captives - Roughly half of the world's registered captives sit in the US, with Bermuda, Cayman, and a developing UK regime behind it, and business processes remain largely unstandardized. -Why captive managers can't scale on spreadsheets - The consultant headcount a captive manager needs grows roughly in proportion to the captives it onboards, which turns a service business into a people business. -Where value leaks in a manual captive - A/B fund premium allocation, loss runs arriving from 10 to 20 different TPAs in incompatible spreadsheets, investment reconciliation, and end-of-period compliance workbooks. -Feature-based pricing, not module-based - Clients pay only for the specific features they use, which matters in a segment where the entire case for a captive is cost. -The measurable payoff - Clients report the platform saves the work of one to one and a half business analysts or captive consultants, and policy issuance that once consumed a dedicated person compresses to about a week and a half. -Key-person risk in Excel - When the one employee who knows the spreadsheets leaves, the knowledge leaves with them; built-in onboarding and AI guidance get a replacement productive in one to two weeks. -AI needs clean data first - DICEUS runs the full extract, transform, load process itself, cleaning years of unstructured spreadsheet data before the platform's AI features can pay off.   Notable Quotes "They cannot grow without adding new people. So it becomes more people business than just a service business."   "At the end of the month you're getting twenty completely different spreadsheets, and you somehow should make a magic work in order to calculate the loss ratio."   "Our system can save, for a traditional captive manager organization, at least one or one and a half consultants. But in reality, I think it's even more."   "They should pass through the digital onboarding step, just filling in all the details, and it should be automatically enrolled. Like, for example, if you want to open a bank account. That will be a big game changer."   Resources Guest: DICEUS: https://diceus.com/ Illia Pinchuk on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/illiapinchuk/   Host & Organization: Joshua R.

Thank Our People Big shoutout to the crews putting in work this weekend. IMSA customer racing had JDC Miller taking 3rd overall, with GTD going to Manthey in 1st, Phorm and Wright's Motorsport rounding out 2nd. And over in Europe, the 24 Hours of Spa customer racing saw Lionspeed take the win in the GT3 R. Solid weekend across the board for the customer teams, and it's always worth pointing out how deep the talent pool is right now. The 963 Is Coming Back So we were wrong, and honestly we're happy about it. The 963 is confirmed for next year, which means Porsche is about to spend millions of dollars just to prove us wrong for talking trash. We'll take it. Still no Le Mans on the schedule though, which has us wondering out loud if the factory team is a little salty at the FIA and just decided to focus everything on IMSA instead. Pure speculation, but it's not a crazy theory given how things have played out. GT4 Goes 911 The new series taking over for GT4 is running a 911 instead of a 718 Cayman, and honestly the reasoning writes itself. The obvious one: the 718 Cayman isn't in production anymore, so you can't exactly build a race series around a car that doesn't exist. The less obvious one: it's another built-in opportunity for Porsche to sell more race-spec 911s. Curious what you all think about losing the Cayman as the entry point car for this class. Fake Paddle Shifters on the Taycan In "who asked for this" news, the 2027 Taycan is getting fake gear shifts, simulated paddle shifting, as a $1,000 option. We're not going to pretend we have a strong take here beyond mild bewilderment. It's a sign of where EV performance cars are headed as manufacturers try to recreate some of the physical feedback people miss from ICE cars. Leipzig Takes Over From Slovakia Also filed under "who cares but let's talk about it anyway," Porsche is shifting production back to Leipzig from Slovakia. Got us wondering if Porsche will ever actually build cars stateside. Our gut says probably not anytime soon, given how tied their manufacturing identity is to Germany, but we'll argue both sides of that one on the show. Get On the Fahren Waiting List If you haven't put your name down for Fahren yet, now's the time. Rally season creeps up fast and car prep should already be in progress if it isn't. Some of the summer rallies have already come and gone, but the big fall events are right around the corner. Our lineup is a mix of air-cooled and water-cooled cars, so there's room for both camps. Don't sleep on this one, you'll miss your shot to drive with a group of genuinely like-minded people. That's the show for this week.
