This weekend was my first time with the Boxster at the track.

The Boxster was bulletproof, which is a big relief with a new (to me) car. The only thing I can complain about it the understeer. I was shocked at how much there was, regardless of tire pressures. That took a bit of fun out of things, but it did encourage me to try trail braking. That didn't go over so well, though. =X Scared myself a couple times, but managed to keep in (mostly) on the track, and pointed (pretty much) in the right direction. My braking skills could use some work.
The car can only go up to one degree of camber without aftermarket parts. Hopefully I can figure out how to adjust that without screwing up the other alignment settings and make it faster for the next event at PPIR in a month.
