"The Comeback" A Porsche 944/924s Racing Specialist

If you own a Porsche 924 or 944 in So-Cal you've probably already heard about CRE, but for those who haven’t, Tim is lifelong Porsche shop owner who builds the best Porsche race cars around. Starting the 944 spec class in 2003, he's been its biggest champion, and wants you to know that it's an affordable and fun racing series with a devout community of people. Who instead of taking things too seriously, just want to have fun and enjoy the art of racing.
His new mission is to go back to his roots and start racing again himself. But this time around, instead of doing it alone he wants to grow the class along with as many people as possible. Thanks for watching this Porsche 924\944 documentary and remember, “If you ain’t first, you’re last” -Ricky Bobby (also Jacob Good)

One of the most underrated videos I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing

[@negative2550]

Appreciate that so much honestly

[@negative2550]

Thanks for watching, this is our biggest documentary yet!! If you want more car documentaries please subscribe, it helps the channel out a lot !

[@Scuderia_Piccolo]

Very well done video! As a fellow racer and loyal customer to Tim Comeau, I can vouch for everything said in the video. I’ve been extremely fortunate to have met Tim at the start of my racing “career.” He’s been the best mentor and friend.

[@brentshanahan947]

I shouldn't have watched this. Now I'm going to need another 944 to come racing with you guys

[@artmchugh5644]

I have one for sale! 951 drivers ED car !!!😆😆😆🚗🚗🚗🍺🍺🏁🏁🏁

[@kristianrave]

ok you did it - i just got my 924S. So much fun!!

[@924oc]

The CALM All Porsche series in the UK is similarly well supported. Great comradery between teams, and their friends too! Plenty of 924 2.0 cars in that series as well.

[@BennysBenz]

Everything he said about how people are on the padec is how Porsche 944 owners are in general.

[@FlyingMonkeysGV]

man...broke spine in '94. paralyzed AF! just put hand controls into an '83 944. automatic (what evs!) i should go down and meet these guys!

[@FirstTheAdam]

I just bought a 944 and it’s on the way from Ohio to Canada. 🇨🇦 Maybe one day I’ll get down to California and meet y’all

[@troymyatt]

Excellent video and production quality. The 944 community is unlike any other - glad to be part of it. 1988 944 NA.

[@59vaughn]

Thought Paul Newman was gonna walk in towards the end.....😒...dang....good little intro....

[@IsraelSocial]

Here a owner of a 924 1977 since i had 23 years old, i can relate the passion that you develop on this cars! To bad im very far (Guatemala) but i wish that community gets strong! If you have social media put the links guys!

[@ODoyleRoolz22]

Great video guys!

[@glencoad737]

Beautiful job with the video and representing the 944 community. ❤❤❤

[@eds14rb]

What an awesome and inspiring video! Such a genuine, passionate and truth speaking person you come across as and I can respect that. As a 944 owner living in SoCal, makes me proud and I wish I could afford to do it with you, but I will be a cheering and spectating on the sidelines until I can join.

[@davidcantrell5098]

Great video, Tim. Dunno why I'm just now seeing it.

[@andrewtreble6979]

Great video...well done. For those who have driven them, Porsche 944s are about as good as it gets for driving an analogue car on the track. The balance and precision are something that doesn't leave you easily. Huge amount of fun.

[@TheBoasn]

Welp. Time to quit my day job and move to San Diego! 🤣 That was an awesome video. Very high quality

[@chlorgeistthegreat7890]

Very excited for this video

[@mayneguitar]

Great video, and as a current 944 turbo owner, along with other 944-model line cars in the pst, I loved it!

[@DugEphresh]

Absolutely the best video I have seen to explain my feeling for my 951 I purchased! It seems like this is what the 924/944 was designed for! Thank you for your time, bless you!

[@Cam-pe3nd]

Beautiful. If me and my 951 ever make it out to California from Ohio, I know who I wanna roll with.

[@frankydooda2051]

wonderful

[@rohan-jl]

these cars are SO sick, i def want one as my first car

[@kristianrave]

What a great video. So much fun to watch. Cheers from Germany

[@NC944er]

Amazingly done! I’ve learned a number of 944 “tricks of the trade” from Tim’s videos and really appreciate him taking the time to share his expertise with the community. Cheers!

[@charlesz25]

Bought a 944 6 months ago. The Facebook 944 groups have helped a lot

[@Izanami2442]

I love willow springs raceway it’s my home track. Recently got into HPDEs with my Miata and I’m hooked !

[@LeMomRacing]

Timmy, you go! Long live 944s!!

[@jenniferreinhardt2600]

Awesome video!

[@MotorsportCentral]

Really enjoyed the videowork!!

[@seanmartinez6981]

I just finished my first weekend in my new to me 83 spec 944 at Inde Motorsports Ranch. This video captures not just racing the 944 but the camaraderie of 944 ownership. Great video!

[@RedRoofGarage]

I absolutely love my 944! I'm planning on finding another 944 or 924s to prep for auto-x or track days.

[@firefighterps2]

This is what being a car nut is all about.

[@flatsixracer]

Great documentary, congrats Tim !

[@pkaczynski]

Stunning video! This is the reason I got into the 944 community

[@multipurposepaperbox]

Nice.

[@MindDezign]

I've watched three videos " THE EDITING IS OUTRAGOUSLY FINE ART" The content for the enthusiasts by enthusiasts ( this shows thru the ART of each video. I'm discovering this channel in may 2022. I'm sad to see not many videos. But I know what it takes to create, these Spheres of Enthusiasm. But I live and enjoy seeing the Art of Videography , presented on this channel. I hope more are created, to get more views , please look up the video creators that tell you " How to get more Views on KZbin" your missing ,to entering some info, in your set up !

[@negative2550]

There’s always more videos in the works!

[@AlanShirtsink]

Thanks for making me want to drive mine today. I guess I blow off work…again!

[@emmanuellehuu8818]

the Comeauback

[@87_951]

Cool video, music is ... interesting but it's audible volume is way too loud and overbearing for what we came to hear- the cars and the drivers.

[@toddscars]

Absolutely loved this! Amazing questions asked and to the right people, along with right vision! Well done

[@shifter047]

Great video! What exhaust are they running at 8:22 ?

[@996Revival]

Dang it… I wanted a 928 and this weakened me a little bit lol

[@928pcar]

If you build a 928 track car (get rid of the luxury stuff) it will decimate these cars

[@miguelcastaneda7236]

Hmm would us lowely 931 fit in...?

[@micahhurst8986]

I don’t know why we wouldn’t be welcome because it’s the same car except you and I have a turbocharged car. I drive a 1982-S2 931. It’s been put up for a few months though. I unfortunately have a pitted #1 exhaust camshaft lobe. Car still runs great but I can’t keep driving it that way. So until I get my new camshaft and the others parts needed to get her back on the road. She will just have to stay in storage asleep 😴

[@miguelcastaneda7236]

@@micahhurst8986 can relate issue wiring harness...and do have mechanics micro fisch files but these varied so much it's being the great hunt

[@micahhurst8986]

I hope you hunt down and find that electronic Gremlin and slay it! My power antenna short caused me 6 months of problems till I realized that the day the antenna got stuck trying to go up. I got out and pushed it back down. That is the only thing I don’t like about 931’s. The antenna is on the driver side in my line of sight. Bugs the hell out of me. I probably will never use the antenna again anyway. Just love listening to my Turbo whistle and exhaust. If I need music I will use my iPhone Bluetooth speaker tube. -Kind regards from Central Texas-

[@timcomeau420]

Ha! 924 turbo's aren't "lowly" at all. I really dig them. They are cool as hell! My #1 dream car is a 924 Carrera GT. I bought a 1981 931 a few yrs back but haven't really started working on it. Meteor Gray Metallic. Too much 944 work......

[@guopw22]

Dang it…does this mean because I said it second, I actually said it last?

[@xxduker11]

Woohooohoo! In my mind, your always number 1 Jacob

[@geraldkottler3014]

what wheels are those on the yellow car?

[@negative2550]

BBS but idk the specifics set

[@paulhunter123]

i thought Americans just do straight line racing.

[@locophoto6881]

“A million computations a second” …dude get over yourself and get out of ego fantasy land …this kind of slow speed “racing” (guys just having fun is the truth ) is not so mentally taxing or skill based that it takes anywhere even close to overwhelming computations per second ….just magnifying yourself to be more than is reality and making drama like an overage high schooler that’s still living in an imagined significance

[@locophoto6881]

Ok you guys are a great bunch but friendly feedback any exaggerations like “a million calculations a second” seem very self glorifying to an absurd degree since it’s obviously vastly exaggerated and not hyperbole. Just seems very off putting like trying to say whatever you want from an ego for a movie for the sake of impressing people who are easily smart enough to see through the BS.
