So why shouldn't I overfill the oil? - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Overfilling will destroy your new AOS by flooding it. Fill to the top of your "normal range" on the dash gauge and don't overheat the car. The standard road course should not be a problem. The banked oval/Roval is the m96 motor killer. Have fun out there!

Trust me when I tell you that at your first day at the track you will not be putting your car at any risk from starvation issues. Reality is that pace is not going to be great enough to create the G forces nessesary. I would not even give it a thought until after at least a dozen or more events, you have moved up the run groups, and have shifted to R comp tires and upgraded suspension.

Until then relax and enjoy yourself.
