i disagree. i have a BASE boxster w/ M030 and i passed both C5's that were with us on a trip to Talladega grand prix. my lap times were a lot better. these were decent drivers. a C5 might be able to 'rape' a boxster on an autoX or tight track with a HERO behind the wheel, but even seasoned drivers will find it tough to beat a box in autoX or on a tight track. open up the track a bit and obviously the horsepower wins.
