Its like a non-gay facebook...
Porsche Parade & TurboPALOOZA 08.04-07.2011
Hey dudes, anyone here going to Porsche Parade? I know that for the most part a lot of the stuff is pretty gay, but there is going to be one thing on the final weekend of the event that is NOT gay, and that is a two day track event at Roebling Road outside of Savannah. Go here to register for the track event: (you do not have to be a PCA member) http://parade2011.pca.org/documents/...11DEletter.pdf
As such, we are planning a Turbopalooza style event centered around this track weekend, somewhat in conjunction with all the stuff going on that week, but mainly centered around the track event.
There will be a hospitatality tent on the Roebling road track infield sponsored by D-Zug Products where u can eyeball all the latest offerings, and upcoming products ( 935 wheel and crank pulley there, strut brace, etc) and enjoy cold beverage and munchies between track sessions.
Just look for Gabe's K3, my 934 and a Martini RSR style car beside a hospitality tent with a DZP banner.
OcTURBOfest 10.15-17.2010
For the second annual ocTURBOfest we're having a larger turn out and have quite the fun few days planned. Meet and Greet on the 15th, Track Day on the 16th and 17th is a drive in on some of the best back roads out there.
Don't miss it! Meeting up at Speed Werks in Thomasville, North Carolina
Rebel Racing is a Fünf Gruppen Sponsor! 09.09.2010
Clint from Rebel Racing Products is the official suspension sponsor for our club. We can vouch for his products from coil overs to spherical A arm bushings, his product is a cut above without the BS found with most other vendors.
Check out Rebel's website when you get a chance by clicking the below image or the rotating banner on the forums.
Testing out his products on a beefed up stock appearing 930, a wild 934 and a balls out 935 K3 - we can honestly say that Clint's stuff is the bee's knees. Words say alot but actions speak louder which is why you'll find his coil overs on the 935 & 934.
Welcome Clint!
Member Garage & Gallery Add-On- 04.10.2010

We also added the Member Garage area to allow you to showcase your ride and all the mods that go along with it, so that way we can learn from each other, call BS on whp claims with the section of dyno charts, 1/4 slips etc. If it has to do with your car you can upload it to your Garage space.

Fünf Gruppen Forums Are Online!!!- 12.16.2009
Okay everyone, after much adu the FG Forums are online!!! Check out the "Forum" link at the top and post away, just like the other forums we all come from there's no political correctness, no censorship...its a place where we can all be ourselves.

So post up and enjoy our new digs!!! Cheers!
Fünf Gruppen Kickoff - 11.28.2009
Officially we celebrate the Unofficial unveiling of the site and our existance to the like-minded turbocharged gear heads out there. Offering a meeting point to the small band of rag-tag-hot-rodding-attitude-filled-speed-craving-flame-spewing misfits enjoying the spirit and the drive that is the Group Five mentality.
With yearly TurboPalooza events and other small events in the works such as track days across the US, we offer something for everyone with parties to boot that will rival the fun on the track and the back roads!
Geographical location matters not to Funf Gruppen as if you're in the Mid West or the West Coast we'll probably come crash on your couch if you live near a track, and we don't hesitate to give roadside assistance to our fellow TurboPalooza goers as we never leave a man behind!
From parking lot parties around a disabled beast at 11pm to clocking a turbo that's just been run to hell and back for 2 hours and push starting the baddest car in the gruppe due to a roasted starter, we're the most laid back speed freaks in history.
We don't believe in the snob nosed, concours correct lug nuts havin', paint polishin', leather conditionin' show n' shines...we drive and put these Porsches to use as the good Dr. intended them to be, to dominate, to instill a fear of a higher power in others and spew flames across the globe.
So if its making a custom poster of your car with the Funf Gruppen logo to show your association and gruppe pride in your home or office, or wanting to setup a meeting/trackday/TurboPalooza in your area just drop us a line and we'll see what we can do.
Don't let your "future projects" or "she's not ready for TurboPalooza yet" excuses stop you from joining in on the activities and festivities. While we praise and admire the 930, we understand that they're not all ways on the road year round for these events...so no excuses, join us free of predjudice and judgement.
So toss out that cigarette lighter, ditch your center console, burn your carpet and sound deadening in a pile in your driveway (well maybe just take it out) and set the coordinates on your GPS or map to the location of the BOV noises, police complaints and scent of molten rubber!
Watch this Blog for updates on upcoming events - eventually we'll get a calander up and running, until then this will be where we post details and links to events that will be upcoming. Thanks for reading!
