Roll Over?

The adjustable strut would be nice to switch from street to track, but is a lot of $$$. The adjutable ride height seems like a waste because who really adjusts their ride height that much (other than die hard racers) and everytime you adjust it you need to have it realigned.
That's good to know, I will not be tracking the car much, I just would like a little tighter suspension with out as much body roll. Speaking of rolling.... Will the Boxster ever roll over with hard corning or will its low center of gravity just let the wheels break and slide?
