Building a Boxster race car in your home garage....A to Z...

Wow.. Really cool. Curious though.. Does the rear rolbar (x brace) interfere with engine access or rear shock tower access?

Looks like a fun little car now. Any idea about what she weighs?

You still need cupholders.

Believe it or not, the heat and A/C are still in the car! At Sears Point last month, it was very chilly in the morning. We just put on the heat and it was nice and comfortable in the car during the first 2 run sessions!

Hi Racer_d,

It's snug, but I can remove both the top and belt panel completely out of the car. With the soft top mechanism gone and the hard top off, there is a surprising amount of room to work on the motor.

We'll be weighing her in the next few weeks on the scales. I'll report back with the actual numbers.

Thanks,

Bill P.
