Yes, you would think the mid engine Boxster would launch well, but after
running one a whole season, it was found very hard to launch. It tends to
spin and hop instead of hookup, like the MR2 and 911's do, if you rev very
high, so you end up doing a controlled traffic light start at lower RPM,
which works, but you are always seeing S2000 and MR2 turbo tail lights by
the end of the straight ;-)
