You don't want ANY piece of ASP.. stay out..
Back to the car: what's it doing or not doing? Low speed understeer? High speed understeer? Low speed oversteer? High speed oversteer?
I tell everyone to leave the cars alone until your ass is calibrated and can tell me/us what it's doing.

I agree, ASP is dominated by big HP cars... Which class besides stock would you run in, supposing you want to mod the car? I mean, street tires and suspension will only get you so far. I went with coilovers and wide slicks because I wanted the car to go faster, plus, Its a way bigger rush putting down good times....

Your car in BS, if you have the Boxster S, is one of the top cars that I think can win in the new BS class. Your time differential to the top 5 can probably be made up going to Version 2 RS-3's all around, as they are proving to be the best street tire for the Street class at this point. I would agree going to a larger rear bar on your car as the stock chassis tends to struggle with push. Also, if you are faster than Courtney, you are driving very very well, keep it up!

For the nationals, didnt the S2000s take the first 10 spots in BS? I think there may have been a boxster or cayman in 13th or 14th place. I dont think they stand a chance in any class with the SCCA
