Most of my videos are in-car clips from my 1972 Porsche 911 at different west coast tracks. Some of them are about my garage.

I tried finding this clip and couldn't. So I've re-uploaded it. Apologies if it's a repeat.

This is another test of another pole for the camera angle I'm working on. The next trick is to make sure it will function and survive at track speeds.

Thanks to CoverKing for finding some old-fashioned cotton to make a cover for my old-fashioned 911.

This is a mixture of footage I had sitting around. The good footage is by the super talented Sean Fannin. The in-car shots are by me, on a day when a Cobra almost messed up my day.

That's pretty neat graphics.
Good to hear the guy admits he whores himself to Hollywood .
Using off track points for markers (buildings etc.) is a bad practice.
Beautiful. but can he drive like his father
Love this.. now I just need a garage You didn’t go into anything like wiring in the garage. Do you have a ton of outlets? Do you have 220v for your Welder? That would be awesome if he did a revisit in 2024
Young man is a talent.
Thanks for the Video....Happy Fathers Day Jack...Congratulations to you as well as to Max. Job Well Done. You have raised a fine young man, and your ethics show. I hope to meet you out at "Willow" some day. Regards. 👍💯💥💫💯👍
Jack, thank you for this video and for your helpful advice when I met you last month. I was the guy with the blue 2009 911S. As you may recall, my very first lap was 1:55, but I dropped 2-3 seconds per lap, ending at 1:39 by the end of my first session. The second session was a string of 1:36s. I consolidated in the 1:36s and 1:37s during my third and fourth sessions. Then, in my fifth and final session, I really went to work on T8/T9 and brought my times down into the 1:34s. Not bad for just one day! I was very happy with the progression of my day and I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you, again.
I love the bargain-price and slick-install. Thinking to do the same..
Great vid other than the annoying clips of you closing the doors every time you talk about a new project.
I’ve been inspired by this garage for almost a decade and I’m still learning tips and tricks
If I use my stock 2000 Honda ex hatchback I don’t have to brake for the is track lol since I can only hit 105 top speed..so if only have to let go of the throttle or just brake a little
The funnest road in the west. Driving a slow car, staying flat through turn 8 and catching up to the fast cars that ditched you on the straights 👌
Awesome video
The turns carry the speed. Carrying the momentum is key. Nonetheless, goes to show that skill, experience counts just as much. Nothing to be ashamed of. Like, David slaying Goliath, well done! I always support the underdog@ Aloha! 🤙🙂🤙
I love your car!
nice one jack , i finally got a car mx5 nd2 rf . keen to experience what you did with the porsche
Nice to see you still got her!!! Please post more videos 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great video!
How many cameras to make this video, it’s awesome!
Doesn't look like you missed a beat , wow , maybe the car got a little dirty
Glad to see you two still together. 👍
Used to work as part of the flag crew around 2006-2007. Just looking at this because I miss it! Anyway, thanks!
… more like Jay Leno or Bruce Meyer
I raced motorcycles there and this is 99% of the lines and throttle usage I take. As bike riders, we tend to be a bit picky about lines as the cars can dig some big grooves and we don't want to drive in them. Typically in turn 1. Turn 8 really takes a bit of time to get comfortable with on some street bikes. The suspension is often not stiff enough and biker will be leaned over as far as they can go at full speed and then start hitting the frame on the track. This will make you wish you brought your brown leathers. Spot on about the exit of 8 and driving hard through the apex of 9.
Always inspiring to watch.
is that wide body or is that stock?
What is the tow vehicle for that boat?
This is incredible! Well done!
Awesome lift idea!! Great looking garage.
Great video. First time on big willow in a month. Only have experience in streets and I’m not that fast so this video is a godsend
Love you garage, just found you on UA-cam while searching for WS videos. You are a inspiration…your car and garage story is very similar to mine; albeit, I have a bmw :)
Very nice!
Awesome vid, always good content!!
Great summary!
Annnnd here we go again....next weekend. Pre race review....as always Thanks Jack.
Thank You. Thank You. I watched this video numerous times before going to Willow Springs for the first time. I went yesterday and within two laps I had your line down. I did everything you suggested and it was smooth like butter. Next time I will get higher speeds with some new Cup or 888 tires for my 2103 C6 Grand Sport. My street Pilot sport 4s do well but I need more grip for that track. Thanks again and keep the videos coming.
I never get tired of watching this 👍
After his complaints I was laughing when he said he has downforce to carry 160 through turn 8. IF you are driving a "downforce car" that can do 163 in 8 you should be able to figure this stuff out WAY better than they seem to be able to do. I really think they are seriously over their head in that much of a car and they are apt to hurt themselves if they start testing the car's actual limits. At least they acknowledge that there isn't any real visual queues along the track.
You're a legend for this video 👏
That ending lmao
Just got back...the B is gone....
Sonoma, Cuckwalla, Thunderhill, now off to good old Willow Springs tomorrow to test some stuff.....doing my usual review....if anyone cares...hahah!
Wonderful, just wonderful!
Excellent track breakdown! Thank you!
Very cool , I just drove willow last weekend for the first time , can't wait to get back , your instructional video helped prepare me as to what to expect, thanks.
This lap guide is not only the best I've used at Big willow, it's so well put together, it's also the best I've seen overall for any track. Thanks Jack
Thank you!
Live in the moment. Nothing else matters. Turn 9 at Willow Springs requires total commitment and total confidence in your equipment. You demonstrate both! Kudos to you and your machine.
who else here after going down a rabbit hole of trying to find cool dated supercar garage pictures
Impressive Jack. Does your personal best still stand?
