FWIW, my car is in BSP. Along with those damn Subaru WRX STI's. In the hands of a skilled driver, those are freakin' fast.

I wasn't arguing about boxsters not being in CSP. I already knew they were only allowed in BSP...

But STR, which as of this year is considered an official class, is not in this years rule book. I was just assuming some one ran in it at this years nationals. Oh well! maybe i'm wrong. But i guess as of now, i am wrong :P

Thanks everyone! Huge help!!

First you said with a boxster you can change to a LSD in STOCK which you can't
Then you said no you ment ST class you still can't
Then you said about STR being a new class this year where you can change to a LSD in a Boxster, which from what is in the rules STR was a new class in 2010.
The only porsche you can race in STR is the 911 with a 3.2 motor the 928, 968, or the 944. Form the 2010 rules and also the 2011 rules
The porsche boxster can not be raced in STR
Look at the links I already posted for you to read.

The rebuild plus the diff was $4000. In hindsight, I overpaid. I believe you can buy a rebuilt trans directly from Guard for $3600 with the diff. Whatever you do, get the G-Box detent and swap it for the stock detent. It's $100, an easy job, and the trans will not pop out of second or third gear ever again.
You'll find out over another year or so, that this does not solve the problem of jumping out of gear. It buy's you more time (on a used tranny) That's it. When your tranny starts leaking from the shift selector bushing on the side? and it jumps out of second or won't stay in? The bushing for the shift selector is bad. *Hopefully* when Gbox did your tranny.. they replaced that bushing that is wearing out on ALL of tranny's
