Oh crap! I almost spit my dinner out of my mouth laughing!
I say, good job! I really dislike people who are stuck up about which car is better and its about time a few of them are put in their place.
At the HPDE, time attack, and club racing levels, its all about driving skill not horsepower. I can't tell you how many "faster" cars that I have laid to waste on the race track in my girly Boxster.
I had one guy in a 911 first ask if my car was a Boxster S? I said no, it was a base. Then he said, oh it must be the 2.7 base. I said no, it was an early 2.5. Then he said that he was on street tires; and I pointed out that so I was I. Then he said that his engine was running poorly. I just walked away at that point.
