This. Just go to the local events and look at who is competitive.

Personally, I would get the S2K since it's the world's fastest car.

Corvette Mustang or Camaro, parts are dime a dozen and affordable.

Nothing like a v8 and rwd.

I agree with you, fix up your boxster. Great COG, handling, plenty of power for A/X. The guy in our P club that almost always wins A/X drives an old Porsche (?914), he's just an excellent driver.
