![]() Does anyone here Boxster Spec Race ? (website link)
This website "Boxster Spec Racing" has not gone public yet. If so, any pics or information to share from your area? **************************** Willow Springs - Night Racing Handheld panning 1/30sec 50mm f/1.8 @ ISO 1600. Boxster Spec Racer, 2007 POC Tribute to Le Mans, Willow Springs. ![]() Boxster Racing Board (link) - My Spec Boxster build by Bill Pickering [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jB81FBXZ7oo"]Boxster Spec Racing Video[/ame] ![]() Porsche Boxster Spec Racers are Spec classified cars tuned for track performance. The rules of the class limit modifications in order to keep the cars performing similarly. The Boxster Spec is already embraced and endorsed by the Porsche Owner's Club in Southern California and is under consideration by PCA, PRC and NASA.

Thanks Chris
It appears to me that older Boxsters are modified for spec racing.
"For the sake of availability and cost, limiting the series to early 2.5 cars (and 2.7s with weight penalties) probably makes the most sense." http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?t=230081

yes, that's the whole idea of Boxster spec racing:
You take the old 2.5L cars which you can get really cheap, strip all the weight off it, have a great power/weight ratio and have tons of fun with an affordable P-racecar ![]()

and I also like is the color schemes! I was thinking the same about my color. I would add stripes, paint the wheels, not sure of what color though? Does anyone know when the next "Boxster Spec Race" would be here in Northern California? Laguna Seca for one? I want to go. ![]() I like this license plate.
