fun day at the track

Took the Boxster to DE friday - what a fun day. Had a great instructor (thanks Heath), and I think I made some progress as a result. Got signed off and did the last run of the day solo. What a blast. Beautiful weather, good people to chat with.

Had a Lotus Elise in our group. Well driven, fast little car! Passed me a number of times. Low CG and great power/weight ratio. He let me sit in it - I fit (6'4"), but getting in/out requires fluidity. Once in though, there is ample head and leg room for even me.

Random thought: Z06's do well at the track. Good brakes, good handling, great acceleration. No handling quirks of some rear engine cars. Make no mistake though, they will spin, as I saw. Some minor complaints from owners on an overly active stability management system?

Got my Brey-Krause extension installed. Found a good price ($385) through PCA. Installation is straightforward, a 20 minute job that only took me an hour (first time).

Fun day.
