I love WRL and that would be the series I would race in if I were to start racing. I guess the only downside for you is that they don't really race on the west coast. You don't really need to use your car though as most of the teams rent out spaces for races. You have to sign up early as spots are usually filled within a month of the race. I think each team has 3-5 drivers per 8 hour race. They just finished a 24 race and might have more per car for that race. If you or anyone else is interested, PM me and I can get you in contact with a few teams. They would love to have someone who knows their way around a boxster. Even more if you have a winning history
I know several teams were short on drivers at the 24@5280.

IMHO, the best way to do this is find a group you like and a car you like and "join the team".

I got lucky -- my primary team is fantastic, it's practically extended family.
I also have a secondary team that fields a well prepared, competitive car (E46).
