    That was seriously funny:) ... and true from my perspective. Awesome engine build by the way. We will see if your G50 is up to the task.

      Exactly my point. They share the same solid chassis. Respect the game..

        Why do so many people bash the Boxter S? It pulls better g's than the Cayman variant does. Yeah it's a soft top but it IS still all P-Car... Well VW now ;)

        I witnessed / drove one of the first 968 3.4L C2S swaps in '01 when I used to sell them, and it would've killed Carrera sales had Porsche done it then. It would really kill everything if you swap a GT2RS motor in say... a Spyder.

          I'm using a 915 gearbox from '83 although i have upgraded the axles to the beefier late 915/G50 ones. The gearbox is certainly the fuse in the drivetrain, but my 915 is a low mileage LSD unit and i respect it's "character".



          Great shots from Sebring by the way!

                Steering with the right foot, and sweet double clutch action


                2:48 is probably my favourite moment... passes a dude on the outside with about 180 degrees of opposite lock on the wheel.

                And a shot of him from the outside laying rubber into Eau Rouge...

                              I didn't see any other Caymans posted so I eagerly await the hate... bring it on. :D

                                Here's my two pos cars. The cayman is the dd and the m3 is the "track car" that hasn't been tracked in months now.
