And yes, track days in a Boxster are like heroin.

Most fun I've had in I can't remember how long. Skid pad is right! We had two 911's spin on the wet track. I flew down the front straight (3,740 feet) at 115 mph but had to start braking about 250 feet before the hard right turn into the North track infield twisties. A 911 that was following me did two 360's in front of the Pit area and almost hit the wall. I have a new & improved love and respect for the Boxster after my day in the rain at Pocono. And I am in awe of the instructors who allow a person they just met to drive them around a track at high speed in the rain with other cars on the track at the same time. Amazing.
