because the slider coming loose = less energy into the seat. not a good test imo.

Thats the $20,000 (or 30k) question. :lol: Top 3 right now in no particular order 1) Spec Boxster 2) Spec 3 3) American Iron

That is, if I dont decide to do GTS2/3.

I've got a friend in Charlottesville that has built about 12 Spec Boxster if you need someone to talk about it with

You are correct, he works for the Flying Lizards also. He did some cage modifications to my car and it looks awesome. Spec Boxsters are a blast on track. We are starting to get something together to run the 13 hour at VIR in one
