My word...
Are you going to come up to TH next weekend when we both hit the track again together?
I seems to me that the Boxster will do a 1:54 at Sears, a 2:05 at TH and a 1:50 at Laguna.
Maybe faster?
What do you think?
I don't know if *anyone* could drive my car as fast as Bill in his Boxster.
Is it fair to say that?

Sorry, can't be there next weekend...I am having a small outpatient surgery on Friday and will be recuperating over the weekend...
As far as times. Th I would put more in the 2:08 range...Laguna more like a 1:46-:47
I think your other statement is fairly true. You have a car that in comparison is underpowered, and ancient suspension...all this comes into play on the big track where it is mitigated at AX.
Look at Bill and Randal's results with Lucille in their first AX...
Top 6 and 7 with a non-dialed suspension and less than optimal tires for AX...
It will only get faster as Bill gets the suspension dialed in and he runs stickier tires, be the 710s or Hoosiers.
I feel the car can be faster than Fritz at AX.
I say this because I have had my stocker Boxster out on BW, TH and Laguna and know what it does in stock configuration...
Bill's spec Box is a whole other ballgame.
And I want to see more of the 914 folks look at the GGR points system with their eye on the TT matchups...
If more of you check it out, participate and make suggestions and/or proposals for next seaon...then maybe, just maybe we can get things on a more appropriated level for all 914s no matter what Porsche motor they have in them.
