IMHO, the Boxster being a sport car has higher limits than regular cars, therefore when you exceed them things happen fairly quick once you cross the threshold, and here is where the proper training and experience shines, like the saying goes practice, practice, practice
Oh, not taken wrong. I've done quite a bit in the car and know what it can handle.
The surprises were due to road material changes entering a DMC for the highway after a light rain.

Tires like 78F350 mentioned is most likely in my case, as I was running half worn summer tires.

Cheers!
