Yes I have a 3.2S

Around curbourgh it can stay with lap times equal to 350 bhp 911s

True the geo is set up properly by renouned Porsche suspension guru Centre Gravity and that was with 7 year old front tyres that were well passed their sell by date

Now on M30 suspension new pilots all round so can't wait for the PCGB and tipec days in 2012 plus more track days if possible

Graham
1989 928 S4
With suspension set up by CG and S02's
All new shocks, rack, brakes including caliper lift plates and much more work done by Dr A etc etc

I drove the original boxster (2.5?) on a track.
