I would have to disagree... First of all... there were only 3 Z-06 Drivers at
the event. All new to the Z-06 this year. Rob has been competitive in the
Boxster S since last year! Erik was only .3 back on the First Day... Rain the
2nd Day... squashes any validity to the Meridian Tour. Three tenths is
comparable to last year in Topeka Erik was less than .3 behind Rob for the
overall weekend.
Although I am quite good with you all running on down to your Local Porsche
Dealer... There are enough of us Z-06's to worry about as it is! :D
I think the season has just begun, and the East Coasters (as well as us West
Coasters) are just starting to get seat time & Development in the C5's.
Peace,

has been on a tear in the Boxter. What's really a
little frightening is when the Stock Class Realignment
is implemented (next year?) the Boxter S will be in S2,
running almost exclusively against C4 Corvettes. I know
its early, yada, yada, but Rob beat some "marquee" C4
drivers at Meridian by over 3 seconds - and the gap was
even larger at the Florida Pro.
Just my opinion. It's early.
