The Boxster held up REALLY well. By far the car I preferred most on the track. So freaking stable and predictable. The 911 was also fun, but I absolutely hated the M3. Didn't help that the gearbox was a little mushy, but what a let down. Very jittery, not confidence inspiring at all. Yuck.

Anyway, the course has my strong recommendation. Good mix of theory and practice.

(P.S.: For anyone following along in the saga of my car swapping, I traded the Lambo coupe for a spider this weekend. Convertibles really are the only way to go).
What was it like going into the cork screw (fast) for the first time?
theres a Rennlister who lives down the road from Laguna Seca. He has his own table at the cafe. Little does he know how lucky a humanoid he is.

Congrats on the drop top Lambo. Gallardo or Murcielago? Saw a powder blue Gallardo(with matching wheels) at my local body shop. I gotta get a v10 some day.
