No doubt the Porsche's brakes are jewelry.

Next spring, I think I will take the "hardtop Boxster" for a test drive, its got to be a step up from the Z4 or M coupe.

Now that I got some serious track time under my belt (from the Fireball Run) I have definitely gotten the itch for road courses (instead of straight line drag racing) and the Porsche has to be at home in such a venue.

My 5 series as good as it is on the road, came up a little short in the track-duty department.

Even with Ceramic brakes and Brembo discs, ATE super blue brake fluid, the brakes took a real beating (really heavy vehicle) and the transmission cooling was inadequate.

911s and their variants should be a blast to pilot around the race track.

Enjoy your new ride!
