   Bore Scoring: The Risk Isn’t What You Think | Blackstone Senior Oil Analyst

   The internet says these engines are doomed. The data says otherwise.In this episode of Rennthusiast Radio, I sit back down with Joe from Blackstone Laboratories to revisit one of the most debated Porsche topics out there: bore scoring. Our first conversation gave a lot of owners real relief, but it also sparked smart skepticism and great follow-up questions. So this time, we go deeper.We talk about what oil analysis can actually detect, whether the bore scoring fear has been exaggerated, how much sampling bias matters, why oil change advice is often oversimplified, and what Porsche owners should really be watching if they want to avoid expensive mistakes.If you drive a 996, 997, Cayman, or Boxster—or you are thinking about buying one—this is a conversation worth hearing all the way through.Rennthusiast Radio exists to bring Porsche owners better information, better context, and better decisions.If you own a Porsche, want to buy one, or have spent any time worrying about bore scoring, this Rennthusiast Radio episode will help you think more clearly about risk, maintenance, and smarter Porsche ownership.Rennthusiast Radio is built for Porsche owners and buyers who want real ownership intelligence, not hype.#Porsche #BoreScoring #Porsche911 #996 #997 #Cayman #Boxster #OilAnalysis #RennthusiastRadio Hosted on Acast.

   The Reason Rennthusiast Radio Ended...and Why the Next Chapter Is Beginning

   This episode of Rennthusiast Radio is a big one.In this episode of Rennthusiast Radio, I explain why I made the decision to shut the podcast down at its peak—and why I ultimately decided to bring Rennthusiast Radio back.After more than 80 episodes, the original run of Rennthusiast Radio had built real momentum. The conversations were strong, the audience was growing, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. But behind the scenes, things weren’t aligned in a way that supported where I wanted to take the podcast next.Rather than force it, I pulled the plug.What I didn’t expect was the response.The number of messages, comments, and emails asking for Rennthusiast Radio to return made it clear that this podcast meant more to people than I realized....and that feedback forced me to step back and rethink what Rennthusiast Radio should be—and what it could become.So this episode is the reset.I walk through:How Rennthusiast Radio startedWhat worked (and why it worked)Why I chose to shut it downWhat changed my mindAnd how Rennthusiast Radio is going to be different moving forwardThe new direction is simple: fewer, more intentional episodes with higher-value conversations, amazing guests, and topics that actually matter to Porsche owners and enthusiasts.If you care about real ownership experience, real data, and real decision-making—not fluff—this is what Rennthusiast Radio is going to deliver going forward.And this is just the beginning.In the next episode of Rennthusiast Radio, I sit down with Joe Adams from Blackstone Laboratories to break down one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) topics in Porsche ownership: bore scoring.Make sure you’re following Rennthusiast Radio so you don’t miss it.
