986S vs. 987 base

[Another S in S]

I said that the box S can do 13.7's and I just wanted to back up what I said. The other stuff is irrelavent and to be disregarded. Like I said before, if the base 987 can beat that I will eat my words. I don't think it will.

I am almost certain that the boxster test results in R&T are at least from a base 02. I think you are right about the 03 and maybe the 02 having the same suspension, however this doesn't explain why the base had it's ass handed to it in the slalom by the S. Maybe it was a freak S because it slalomed faster than a Gt2 and C-Gt.

Speaking of freak S's, did you read that post recently on ppbb.com where someone's S was dyno'ed at ~ 210HP? Don't be so sure you can beat a base. And an expert driver in a base will beat YOU in your S 0 - 60, 1/4 mile, on any track, any day.
